Are you getting ready to move locally? Few things in life are more stressful than moving. There are a few things that you can do to help prepare you for your upcoming move and make it as smooth as possible.
After you've decided on where you are going to be moving to, the first step is to get your home or apartment packed. This can be done by yourself, friends and family, or professional movers. Most people, especially for smaller local moves, choose to pack their belongings themselves. To pack your belongings you should have the following items:
Boxes - an assortment of all sizes including wardrobe boxes to pack clothing
Packing paper - to safely wrap any breakable items when packing them in boxes
Tape - to safely seal your boxes
Markers - to label your boxes with what they contain
Once all of your items are packed and boxed, you will most likely discover that you have an assortment of unwanted items. Depending on how long you've lived in your home, the size of this pile may be quite large. To speed up the process and save time the day of the move, it is best to dispose of these unwanted items immediately. A few possible ways to dispose of these items include:
Contact your local trash service to arrange a special pickup
Contact a professional junk removal company to help remove these items
Order a dumpster
Contact local charities to see if these can use any of your unwanted items
Now that all of your items are ready to move and the junk is gone, the last step is to decide on how you are going to get your items from Point A to Point B. You've basically got two choices:
Hiring a professional moving company
Renting a truck and moving the items yourself or with family and friends.
Most people assume that hiring a local mover is far more expensive than doing it themselves. While it most likely is a little bit cheaper to move the items yourself, hiring a local mover is often the best choice. When factoring in the truck rental, insurance, fuel, extra time, beer, and pizza you may just want to consider paying a professional. For a few hundred dollars, it is probably not worth the extra hassle.
Follow these three easy steps and you are sure to have a less stressful local move.
