Moving Day Tips
We understand the process of staging and selling your house may seem like a long and daunting one, especially if you throw work, family and outside commitments into the mix. But what many people don’t stop to realize is just how long and daunting the next step of packing up and moving all your belongings can be. The days spent sorting, bubble wrapping and taping can seem never ending, but the actual moving day can tend to be a little stressful and overwhelming - even for the most organized of people. And while (unfortunately) there isn’t a magic trick to take all the stress of the day away, we have listed a few tips and tricks below to help make the day a little more tolerable. Happy moving!
1.) Make a list before moving day to keep yourself organized. Be sure to include any phone numbers you may need so they are able to be referenced easily, and also a list of everyone’s tasks that day.
2.) We suggest an early wake up time on moving day to ensure you are awake and organized, and also have time for a good breakfast (you will need it!).
3.) Be sure to wear appropriate clothing that you are comfortable in and are able to move easily in.
4.) Make sure your cell phone is fully charged to avoid needing to plug it in during the day.
5.) See if you can convince family and/or friends to come help out (food is usually a good bribery tool).
6.) If you have kids and/or pets, see if you can have someone watch them for the day to make sure you can focus and be as productive as possible.
7.) Make sure to carry all jewelry and important documents on you at all times. Nothing is more stressful than loosing something of value to you on moving day.
8.) Be sure to label all boxes to keep things organized.
9.) Make cleaning arrangements ahead of time. Once everything is moved out of your house, there is a good chance it will be a total mess and having cleaning plans ahead of time will take some stress off your back.
10.) Keep a smile on! We know moving day is stressful but it is also an exciting day of new beginnings and beautiful memories.
Purchasing a house is a very personal decision as you want your home to reflect your personal style and taste. Many families hang pictures of beautiful memories and paint the walls different colors to reflect their personalities. But when it comes to selling your home, you may want to rethink some of these homey, personal touches to ensure the house appeals to a wide variety of buyers. If you are looking to sell your home, staging your home to sell is always a good idea, even in the strongest of markets, and we have a few tips below on how to accomplish this in your home.
Moving day is an exciting time for the entire family....but it is also stressful. The same stress felt by the 'humans' in the house, are also felt by your pets. In fact, pets can sense that something big is up, weeks prior to your move! They pick up on your anxiety and the chaos of their living space.
