Things to Remember while relocating

We all know the excitement, the excitement and the joy that comes from moving into a new home.  But we are also aware of the stress that comes with this trip, the packing box and the farewell.

There are many things to remember on the go, so having a clean checklist will help you organize your luggage. For example, you should remember to disconnect your internet and phone lines to move to a new address.

Things to Remember while relocating.

1- Print or draw a map of your new home

Creating a complete home plan can help you organize yourself better. You will be able to measure the rooms and see where you will place your furniture and if it will fit.  You can also keep notes to tell the movers which boxes go where.

2- Start sorting things out quickly.

Reducing the size of your luggage is a great way to simplify your packing and shipping process. Many people are unaware of how many things they have but do not use them. So when the day comes, they have to be dragged to a new house.

3- Start packing well in advance.

Don’t wait a week before you start packing. Do yourself a favour and start planning and organizing at least a month in advance. Start with the largest rooms in the house and pack everything you don’t need for the next month or two.

4. Make a list for each room

Make a list of things to remember as you walk through each room of the house.  As you put items into the box, write down all the items for that particular box on a piece of paper. Then, seal the box and label it properly.

5- Pack a box of essentials for the day while walking.

Packing a bag of essentials should be at the top of the list you will need access to clean clothes, pyjamas, sheets, towels, toilets and medicines while travelling.

6- Arrange extra support on Moving Day.

 If you have hired professionals to handle your movement, you are well prepared.  But cleaning up, unpacking, or just getting more help with babies and pets doesn’t hurt.
