5 Tips to Prepare for Moving Day

Follow my blog with Bloglovin
If your long-awaited moving day is quickly approaching, it's time to get organized! Whether you are moving locally or long distance, here are some tips that can help prepare you and your family for the big day.
  • Make lists: You almost never realize how many belongings you have until you decide to move. In the weeks before moving, sit down with a notepad and pen and start to make lists for every room in your new house. Keep a running list of all of the things you plan on putting in each room. This will make it much easier when it is time to pack everything up.
  • Get moving supplies: If you hire a moving company, you may receive packing materials from them. Our movers in Livingston will supply you with boxes, packing materials, and four months of storage all for free. These deals vary from company to company, but this can be very helpful in the long run. With a moving company providing supplies for you, that is one more thing you can cross off your moving checklist.
  • Pack ahead of time: The last thing you want to do is wait until the very last minute to pack. This will cause you unneeded stress and may cause you to misplace items. Start packing up the things you do not use very often first, and as time gets closer, start packing the more important things
  • Organize belongings: Now that you have your lists written and your moving supplies ready, it is time to get organized. Sometimes the best way to get organized is to color code and label boxes by the rooms they will be placed in. Whether you hire movers or move your own belongings, this will help keep everything in order.
  • Keep important things together: Moving day can be a very chaotic, long day. Keep all important things you may need your first day or night in your new home together in one box, so you know for a fact where it all is. Also place important documents together so they do not get lost in the hustle and bustle of things.

Moving day does not need to be full of stress. By following Contact our Livingston movers for more tips for moving day.
