Packing Tips We Tend to Overlook

And due to the way that you feel at the time, the packing that needs to take place may not be the first thing that you are thinking about.

For others, packing can be a huge stress that makes them wonder why they are moving in the first place.

With this being said, here are a few packing tip that we all tend to overlook due to nerves or excitement over a move!

1. Have tons of packing materials to work with! Most people tend to underestimate what they truly need when they are packing up for a move. Instead, figure big, and don’t be surprised if you end up using most of it.
2. Start with those areas of your home that are for storage, closets, the garage or even the basement. You are not using these items, so you can start to pack these super early and never miss these items that are in the boxes.
3. Start early if you can! Don’t wait for a few days before movers arrive, this is going to lead to more stress if you wait.
4. The last rooms to pack are those that you are using the most, such as the kitchen, bedroom and bathroom.
5. Label the boxes properly. The good news is that when you are packing early enough, you have the time to label these properly to ensure that they get where they need to be.
