The essentials you must have when moving.
3 Moving Must HavesSo often in life, it's the little things that undo the best laid plans. Your long distance move can be torpedoed by some of the very things that are essential to a successful move.
Strong boxes. Nothing ruins your day faster than the bottom dropping out of a well packed box. It gets worse if the items involved are breakable. Spring for the strong boxes that can take some abuse. It may add a little to the budget, but is definitely worth it. Pack the basics. At least one box needs to be set aside for basic needs such as toiletries, underwear, towels, basically anything that you are going to need those first few days in your new home before you have successfully unpacked every box. This box should ideally be kept in your car in order to avoid loss or other disorganization problems. As with any large project, the success is often found in the planning, and you will most certainly want to take those extra steps to ensure that your move goes smoothly and without incident. Write this stuff down and check it off as you go, and you will be able to view moving day as an event to be enjoyed and not stressed over. |
