Before you get started with the moving process, it is important to step back and analyse the situation at hand first. Whilst making a plan first of all may sound boring and laborious, it is important so that you can keep on track of your move so you don’t miss out on any crucial steps. There are some particular do’s and don’ts when it comes to moving home so make sure to take note to make your move a success and without any hiccups along the way. DO - Hire Specialists for Special ItemsSome items need specialist care when it comes to handling them. These items may include pianos, antiques and valuable art. So to protect your valuables it is important to hire a removal company Chester that has specific training when it comes to moving items like these. Choosing a professional mover will give you that experience you need for your move. DON’T - Overload BoxesOne of the most common mistakes homeowners make when moving home is overloading their boxes. Boxes can be expensive and you may need a lot of them, but overloading your boxes will only make them heavier and at risk of falling through. Instead, look at items that may not necessarily need to be packed such as clothing which can be transported on hangers. DO - Get Creative With PackingIf you decide to use a packing service from your removal company then they will supply all the boxes and materials for you and you don’t need to worry. However, if you are packing yourself, now is the time to get creative. Use other household items such as washing baskets, suitcases and holdalls to make the most of your space. DON’T - Leave Empty SpacesWhen packing up your items it is important to not leave any spaces inside your boxes. From time to time you will need to pack unusual shaped items, but to avoid any breakages in transit use packing paper to fill in the empty gaps. DO - Pack Room By RoomIf you pack logically you're less likely to get yourself in a tizz when it comes to unpacking. The best way to pack is room by room, starting with the least used room such as the attic, garage or shed. Pack your out of season items first and keep any items you need to use out until moving day. DON’T - Forget About Non-Allowable ItemsBefore it comes to moving day it is important to find out with your removal company whether any items are restricted. Items that may be hazardous can include propane cylinders, paints and fireworks. It’s best to check first before assuming you can. |
