At Expert Movers, it is always our goal to make your move as stress-free as possible; here are some tips on packing that should make your move a little easier!
First, well before moving day, pack items that you won’t need to use right away; for example, if it’s summer, pack away winter clothes, jackets, etc. That way all the items that you do need once you arrive at your new location, will be unpacked first.
Then, start packing one room at a time, so you can label each box according to the room they came from; it’ll keep you organized and unpacking will be a lot easier. We typically advise you to start packing up a spare room, or an office of some kind. That way when you start to pack up other rooms, you can store the boxes in the empty spare room/office, so that boxes are out of the way. Be sure to label each box so that unpacking will be more organized and orderly.
You will also want to keep a supply box filled with all of the essentials handy for when you arrive at the new location; this supply box should contain things like: bed linen, toilet paper, band-aids, plates, cups, cookware, etc. It might be a good idea to keep a toolkit handy as well, just in case you have to put together furniture.
We hope these packing tips help organize your move just a little bit! Remember, that Expert Movers offers packing services, if you feel you don’t have enough time to pack yourself!
