So, when you find yourself stuck in a similarly complicated situation, stop worrying and pay attention to what is essential and the need of the hour. Then start working towards it.

In this article, we have quickly summed up some tips, which are more like some key jobs that you must attend before the move, or during the moving period.

Find out and read them below:

1.    Spend time overseeing things – Give a day or two to oversee all the goods that you have in your house. Look into the cupboards, cabinets, and also check the storage areas in your house to see how many things you have kept in there. You have to inspect them carefully to categorize them ahead of your move.

2.    Organize your possessions – The second thing to take care of after going through your goods is how you will arrange them for the packing task. You cannot pack goods just unsystematically, where you do not know how and where the items are being packed. You must first organize them into categories and then pack.

3.    Simplify the task like this – Maintaining a list for the purpose is the best thing you can do. You can clearly note down the categories you can group your entire household items into. This will make your packing task simpler. Do the same for the segregated items too, you can group them in the sale, donation, and disposal piles.

4.    De-clutter first, then pack – If you have sorted the unnecessary stuff out of your household space, and are waiting to tackle them ideally ahead of the move, we would advise you to first manage the de-cluttering task and then attend the packing job. A cleaner house space makes packing tasks simpler and manageable.

5.    Research expert movers – You are concerned about how you will attend the packing tasks as per the predefined timeline but you have not given a thought to hiring professional movers for the task. This could turn out to be one biggest flaw in your moving plan because certain things are better if handled by the experts. So, book a trained team of professionals and navigate through the move easily.

6.    Keep the checklist handy – Regardless of whether the professionals supervise your move throughout or not, you must keep the packing checklist handy. This list would have all the key details you made at the time of planning. Showing them up to the movers from Agarwal Packers and Moverswhen they are aboard to attend your packing task would help.

7.    Plan out all packing tasks – If you have fulfilled some section of your packing already and are waiting for the professionals to join you for the remaining goods handling tasks, you should curate a plan for the same so that all that is still left to be attended gets dealt with efficiently. Assign days, allot hours to handle the job.

8.    Pay attention to every room – You may have packed items from your bedroom and your living room may have also been attended partially, but there would be many more rooms or spaces that would comprise of plentiful of stuff. So, rather than jumping into the task without any order, you must move room-wise or simply attend them depending on the amount of stuff they hold. But make sure to check every area and corner – from the basement, living room, guest room, kids’ room, kitchen, dining hall, bedroom, terrace, and balcony.

9.    Keep track of your duties – At least once or twice, you should catch a glimpse of the task list you have with you so that in the chaos of packing for the move, you do not miss out to attend your primary responsibilities. It is only then you will see your move progressing. Simply attending to your packing tasks will not help; focusing on the pre-move chores is equally significant to keep the move on track.

10.    Pack non-essentials first – Don’t you think it is better to pack up all those items that you would not even need in the days to come? Well, this is the best thing to do first because once you start packing up the non-essentials from your household; you see your cluttered, unmanageable room turning into a clean space. Also, this helps you to pay attention to the other packing jobs.

11.    Make considerations – While packing your belongings, you will come across many items that are either not allowed for transportation or need a particular kind of packing. For all these concerns, you are advised to speak to the professional movers clearly. They will further make it clear about the non-allowable items and also help you with the complicated packing.

12.    Safeguard assets – Do you have articles that can be impacted due to the change in temperature, climate, and overall setup of the surrounding. Well, then these items must be prepared distinctly in quality packing materials so that they remain safe from rust, dust, moisture, etc. You can speak to your moving company to clarify the packing services you expect for these special belongings or you can contact a storage service providing company that will help you with the upkeep of the sensitive items during the transit duration.

13.    Know it is never too late or early – You may have overlooked some crucial aspects of your move all this while or would have canceled out some last-minute jobs for some reason, but you must also keep in mind that it is never too late for bringing up a change to the moving plan. Similarly, it is never too early to fulfill priority tasks. It all depends on people, their urgencies, and their requisites.
