Buying a new home or an office might sound goods but it’s a hell of a job. Moving to a new place is not a pleasant task. It takes approximately weeks. 

Making a movie can be between areas, cities, or states. If you have decided to make a move, start planning early and organize and arrange everything days before the move.

If you are making a move for the first time and decided to do it by yourself, then you need to read these tips.

1) Organize the move early

Avoid making last-minute arrangements. If you are changing your area or city, give your move a maximum of 4-8 weeks to organize each and everything. 

Make a to-do list. Plan from start to end to avoid any mishap at the time of moving.

2) Avoid buying new boxes

If you already have packing boxes, avoid buying new. It will help you to save your money. You can use laundry hampers, wicker baskets, or suitcases instead of paying for new boxes. 

Use tape and a marker pen to pack and mark up everything. This will help you to easily identify the items at the new place. Try to use permanent markers to avoid writing on the boxes. 

Permanent markers can work even on tape and thus you can use your box again. When adding items to your packing boxes be aware of the sizes and capacity of the boxes. When filling a box make sure to put the heaviest items at the bottom to avoid damage.

3) Donate or waste what you can’t move

There are several materials in our home which are partially or completely damaged and can’t be recycled again. 

These things may include plants with a lot of soil, broken furniture, a tin of chemicals, etc. 

Donate the things to the charities or simple waste if it is not of use anymore. Avoid taking damaged materials to your new home.  

Be careful while packing materials like knives, petrol cans, etc. Pack them tightly so that no one can get hurt.

4) Rent your moving truck or trailer

According to the size and quantity of your belongings, select the truck or trailer that will not damage or break your property. Renting a truck is not so cheap. It will make your move easier. 

Book your truck or trailer days before you want to make a move. While selecting a truck make sure about its background like it has a pickup or return station near your old or new home. 

Check the truck or trailer for size and its capacity for handling the load.

5) Dealing with the paperwork

Instead of all the furniture or other belongings, make sure to keep all of your papers with you.

Papers include your legal documentation, your certificates, licenses, passports, insurance papers, etc. pack it most securely and try to keep in your most safe packing box. 

Try to make electronic copies of your documents and save them in your dropbox or drive or maybe a USB so that you will have a backup.
