The ultimate tips and tricks of moving into your new home
People have heard the myth that the hustle to own your dream home ends with the purchase of it. We’re busting that myth today; moving in is one of the most difficult and stressful parts of buying a home.
With so much furniture, luggage, and necessary items, it’s a hassle for everyone, but wouldn’t it be fun to turn those stressful activities into joyful ones?
From preparing your moving-in move to keeping everything settled, we’ve compiled a list of the best moving-in tips and tricks.
1. AEAP (As early as possible)
When you get the keys to your new home, you don’t have time to waste packing things up. Begin getting rid of items you no longer require and pack everything within 30-60 days.
2. Categorization
While packing, make sure to categorize all of your belongings. Keep crockery and fragile items on one side and label all of the items according to their category.
3. Communication
A house is made up of everything, from clothes stored in small boxes to large pieces of furniture. When you’re finished packing, make sure to communicate with the movers and inform them of the items you’re carrying so they can estimate tools, vehicles, and transportation costs.
4. Transportation
From the excitement of purchasing a new home to the final close of moving in, the last thing you want is for everything to be crammed into a crowded truck. Many people struggle to determine the correct size of truck they require, but with experienced movers on the job, they take care of everything.
5. Handy utilities
On the final day of moving out, make sure to keep all the basic utilities handy like newspapers, cardboards, scissors, and packing tape to tackle the emergency.
6. Value your valuable
When packing your valuable items, avoid packing them in the trash can, as this may result in the item being thrown away.
7. Greet your movers
Make sure to thank movers and offer them snacks and drinks as a token of gesture after a successful move-in.
