Moving? Here is what you need to know

by | Jun 10, 2019 | Features

Planning a move effectively will help the process go better and more efficiently. First, check your rooms for items that you no longer need and start ridding yourself of those items. Next, consider what will happen with furniture if you are up-sizing or downsizing, and donate items you have no use for. Make sure you consume any remaining food you have as way of purging your kitchen. Start packing those items you don’t need access to now and make sure you have all of the supplies you need to assist with your packing needs.

Key Takeaways:

  • When preparing to move to a new home ensure that you get rid of items you no longer need and consider donating if downsizing.
  • Do not wait until the last minute to pack, but start packing those items you will not need access to right away.
  • Consume any food you have remaining in your old home.
