Stay organized and efficient with your next big move, using this free guide from Movers.com. It breaks the entire process down into step-by-step instructions and explains how to take care of each step yourself, or how to find a qualified professional.
If you've ever moved before, then you know that it's a lot more complicated than just putting stuff in boxes, and then taking the boxes to a new house or apartment.
Sure, that's the main event - but to say that's "moving" would be like saying that putting a cake in the oven is "making it."
There are lots of steps that need to happen first, and a few that need to happen after - if you want everything to run smoothly.
The good news is, that organizing for a move just got a little easier if you use this free guide from Movers.com (click here to read it right now). It explains everything you need to know, the steps you need to take, and even how to hire a professional, or how to get free estimates.
If you're going to use an organization aid, why not use one built by the experts, right?
In this one, Movers.com specialists explain step-by-step how to prepare for a long-distance move, starting with finding a printable moving checklist. These lists can be found online, at Movers.com, or through certain moving crews by request, and they provide a simple list of essential steps that should be checked off throughout the process - just to make sure you don't forget anything important.
The guide also contains a list of documents that you should keep track of, both at the old house and the new residence. This includes any utility payments and correspondence with utility companies, loan records, mover records, and any receipts or documents relating to your new home, such as receipts for new furniture, kitchen taps, or appliances.
I know this sounds like a lot of records to hold onto, but it's only temporary, and you can keep them all together, so it's not such a big deal. Besides, soon enough you'll be so busy packing, you won't have time to worry about any of this other stuff.
While the guide does not suggest an exact start date for packing, it does explain that this should never be left until the last minute, or started too early. Movers.com experts indicate that it will take about 5 to 7 days to pack a “medium-sized house,” but this can still vary widely based on your specific situation.
The full guide (click here to read it) explains step-by-step how to declutter, organize, and then pack your house, working room by room. It also includes professional packing strategies to ensure each item is boxed safely and suggestions for labeling and organizing boxes so they will be easier to unpack in your new home.
One alternative option, if that all just sounds like too much work, is to use full-service movers. While this obviously has increased costs, it includes having a professional crew pack up everything in your house, transport it, and set everything up again in your new home.
I can't estimate how much that might cost you, unfortunately, but Movers.com can.
