Here Are Ways To Make Your First Move Smoother For Yourself And For The Professional Movers

Make A Checklist

Many companies will offer a printable checklist, or, but if there isn’t one, sit down with your partner or friend and make one. You can use one of many list apps to link and sync your list, so you can both add items to it in real time.  

Consider Using A Storage Unit Where it Makes Sense

If your moving somewhere far away, consider using a storage unit to store bedding, furniture and other non-essential items, so the only thing you’re hauling cross-country are clothes and toiletries. Once your set up and ready the other items can easily follow.

Use Labeled Plastic Tubs

Once again, this may be more expensive initially, but investing in plastic tubs will avoid a lot of potential problems. They’ll keep your belongings dry and pest free, plus they’ll last for years, they stack easily without collapsing and if a clear plastic it allows you quick and easy visibility of your goods.
