There’s the saying, “skimp now, pay later,” and that applies to moving as well. Even though moving to new a home can be a stressful and time-consuming activity, not putting in the work now most likely means you’ll have to do twice the work later. By following these simple moving packing tips, you’ll make your unpacking experience much more pleasant. (And that means more time to enjoy your new home!)
- Use the right size boxes.
- Put heavier items on the bottoms of boxes, lighter items on top.
- Don’t leave empty spaces in the boxes.
- Avoid mixing items from different rooms in the same box.
- Label each box with the room it’s destined for and a description of its contents.
- Tape boxes well.
- If you’re moving expensive art, ask your mover about special crating.
- Bundle breakables.
- Consider other items that will need special treatment.
