Helpful Moving, Packing, and Unpacking Tips

Moving to a new home in a new neighbourhood or city can be an exciting experience. It could signify a positive change in your life, like a promotion that allowed you to purchase a nicer home, or a job reassignment that allowed you to go to places you’ve never dreamed of going before.

However, like most good things, moving requires a bit of hard work and preparation. There are several things you should do before moving, and one of them is packing your belongings. Packing for a move can be a daunting task, as you’ll have to segregate your belongings—deciding which to bring, which to sell, and which to give away to charity.

To simplify the process, you’ll need to gather all the necessary supplies, such as boxes and tape. Packing is not exactly an enjoyable task, and not having sufficient supplies may cause you to procrastinate. You should pack things that belong in the same room together. This way, in case there’s an emergency and you need something, you’ll know where to find it.

You should also create an ‘unpack first’ box containing essentials like paper towels, box cutters, a first aid kit, and some snacks to help you unpack on move-in day. You should hire a licensed and insured mover to assist you to lessen the stress. Remember that licensed and insured movers can perform their work in a timely, precise manner, and will take care of you belongings.
