Packers and Movers’ Professional Advice on Moving a Short Distance in Canton, MI, Grand Rapids, MI, & Belleville, MI
No two moves are ever the same. Whether you are moving long-distance or local, are moving your company or home, there are endless options on how to streamline your experience. If you are planning an upcoming short-distance move, Rose Moving & Storage’s packers and movers want to share some of their favorite moving tips to make your move a stress-free experience.
Decide What to Move
As you prepare your move, save yourself the expenses or energy of moving everything by getting rid of a few items. As you begin, take inventory of what you have to move and create separate “to throw away” and “to donate” piles. Why move something if you aren’t going to keep it?
Supplies
If you are looking to save expenses, you might want to see what boxes and bins you can use for your move before buying all new boxes. Buying new materials is the safest way to move your belongings, but we understand that some individuals might need some flexibility with this option. If you borrow moving boxes or storage bins from friends and family, make sure the boxes are in good like-new condition to avoid any breaking boxes or damaging items.
Plan and Measure
When moving into your new space, it would be frustrating to find out you couch doesn’t fit on the wall you want it to. Measure your furniture, doorways, and wall-hangings to make sure everything can make it into and find a place in your new home.
Prioritize Packing
Because you are planning ahead for your move, set aside what items you will need up until the moving day. Professional packers and movers suggest keeping key items like your toiletries, a few dishes, changes of clothes, and more, all set aside while the packing is going on so you still have access to those items. Everything deemed essential can be packed up on the move-out day last.
Planning how to pack, measuring your furniture, and gathering supplies; there is a lot to do before your move. Make sure you schedule estimates with professional packers and movers months ahead of the move to see how their services can help you.
