Make Moving Easy!

Thinking About Moving? Here are 10 simple packing tips to help things run smoothly, efficiently and leave you feeling organized when the job is done. 

 

1.  Gather packing supplies before you begin. It’s always frustrating when you’re on a role but have to run out for more tape.

2. All boxes should weigh 50lbs or less. Makes for easy lifting and ensures that no box breaks at the bottom.

3. Pack heavier items on the bottom of the box. You do not want lighter items to get crushed.

4. Small items should be secured in a box or bag before put into bigger boxes.

5.  Keep an inventory and number your boxes so that you do not loose any merchandise in the move and know which items    should be found in which box.

6. Label your boxes “unload first” or “load last”. This makes it easier when you are unloading at the new house.

7. Keep important valuables and records in your own car when moving. Do not send them with the rest of the goods.

8. Try and keep content from the same room together. Makes it easier when unloading.

9. Keep clothing in dresser drawers. Saves you a few boxes.

10. Keep tools for assembling furniture at the new house in there own box and in a moving spot you can access easily (Label “unload first”).
