4 Handy Hacks For Moving HomeMaking a new home completely your own and opening your heart to a new space is a rewarding and enjoyable experience. But the process of arriving there (also known as the move itself) is a very challenging and stressful one. That’s why you should always be on the lookout for tips to make the move as smooth as possible, so let the 4 points below assist you along the way: 1. Declutter Before You Move If you’re a self-professed hoarder drowning under the bulk of your own junk, it’s a good idea to sort out the mess before you move home. This will help you avoid having to lug it all along with you. Decluttering and organizing your belongings into what you want to take, and what you’re happy to see the back of at last, means less energy and effort on your part moving more stuff which you’re only going to end up throwing away regardless. This also makes it easier to clean before you have to vacate the property. If you are moving out of a rented property, be sure to invest in end of tenancy cleaners Southwark to make sure that the property is left in a pristine condition. It’ll also guarantee the return of your original deposit. 2. Label Your Boxes It’s okay to have amazing organizational skills in which your boxes are neatly packed and wrapped and ready to go. But if you don’t label them, you’re going to risk tearing open every single box to find a cup or your favorite hoodie when you arrive at your new home – and that way, madness lies. It's as simple as taking a Sharpie and scrawling “clothes,” “books,” or “kitchen” on the boxes (while obviously making sure you label them correctly, of course). You’ll thank yourself later! 3. Set Up Your Utilities in Advance All you’ll want to do after a hard day’s moving is dump yourself in front of the television and stream your favorite TV show by the light of your coziest lamp, all wrapped up nice and warm with a well-earned takeout beside you. What you don’t want is to arrive in your new home to find that you have no electricity, no internet, and that it’s cold as heck. (Also, you don’t know which box your knitwear has been packed in because you failed to label properly.) Planning in advance to have everything up and running for as soon as possible after moving in (ideally, for the day you move in) means you can get settled sooner. 4. Pack an Emergency Kit This means whatever you define an emergency as, whether it’s a bottle of good wine, snacks, your favorite pair of shoes, or more practical choices such as band-aids and phone chargers. Even if you do label your boxes correctly, there’s always the risk that the box you need is difficult to get to or hidden under a pile of ten other boxes. By packing an emergency kit in a bag and keeping it close at hand at all times, you will have access to everything you need when the moment arises – so choose wisely! CommentsComments are closed.
