If you’re moving to a new home or office, you have an exciting journey ahead of you! You may be moving down the street, or maybe you’re traveling thousands of miles. Regardless, you have a lot of change that’ll happen very soon. But if you don’t do your research ahead of time, you may end up making easily avoidable mistakes.
The team at E-Z Move wants to make sure your move goes as smoothly as possible. In our 20 years of experience, we’ve seen it all. These are some of the most common moving mistakes our team has seen, and we want to help you as you prepare for your move.
Waiting Until The Last Minute
It’s easy to procrastinate, especially if you aren’t looking forward to a task. But if you wait until the last minute to pack, you’ll end up sleep-deprived and stressed. Even if your move isn’t for several weeks or months, start packing your things as soon as you can.
Forgetting To Label Each Box
If it’s been a while since your last move, you may have forgotten the importance of properly labeling every box. If you forget to keep track of everything, you’ll be left with dozens of boxes and have no idea where to start. Get as specific as possible in your labeling –– for example, instead of “kitchen,” you could write “plates” or “pots and pans.”
Not Hiring Professional Movers
You may be tempted to move everything with the help of friends, but your stress levels will remain much lower if you use professional movers. Make sure your movers are licensed, insured and experienced –– not every moving company that claims to be legitimate will actually prove trustworthy.
