9 Expert Organizing Tips to Make Your Move Easier

by | Aug 28, 2020 | Features

A few expert moving tips can make the whole process much easier than if we put things off to the last minute. We want to start prepping early. We want to figure out what we need and what we can get rid of. We can organize our things in our current home just so we can pack efficiently. We want to set up a schedule and label our boxes so that all of our rooms can have their own storage.

Key Takeaways:

  • Pare down the stress of the moving process by beginning the purging process of off-loading unnecessary objects from your home two to four weeks before moving.
  • With the elimination phase completed, move in a sequential manner through your home, packing items in each room.
  • Since you do not want to make a habit out of living in boxes, it’s best to start the post-purge phase of packing about a week before moving.
