Start on time:Start planning and packing at least 6-8 weeks before your move.See also tip 8!
Make a plan and use our checklist:s Create a detailed moving plan with deadlines for each task. Use our handy checklist on the site as a reminder.
Packing:use handy, strong moving boxes and it works well if they are all the same size so that they can be stacked well. That works very well with our autolock moving boxes, for example. In addition, with our boxes you do not have awkward small compartments in which you have to try to write the contents; you simply have all the space to write on the box with a marker what is in it and that's it!
Protection: Carefully wrap fragile items with bubble wrap or use special wrapping paper.
Essential Box:Create an 'essential box' with essential items like toilet paper, cleaning supplies, some basic kitchen utensils, some food and drinks and maybe an extra bedside lamp for your kids for the first exciting night in the new house!
Changes of address:inform authorities such as your bank, insurers, postal companies AND all youronline store accountsabout your new address.
Hire a professional company:o Consider a moving company for larger moves or if you need help with heavy furniture. The cost can sometimes be quite reasonable and it will save you a lot of hassle.
Cleaning up:donate items you no longer need to a thrift store or to others. This way you will have less to pack and move. Make your move a fresh, new start right away!
