PACK ONE ROOM AT A TIME
The one thing about moving is that things can get out of control quickly. Before you start getting overwhelmed with everything sprawled around you, follow these tips on how you can keep everything organized.
THROW OUT WHAT YOU DON’T NEED
If you pack it now, you’ll need to unpack it later. Throw away anything you don’t need now, so that way you won’t have to find a place for it in your new home. If you really get into purging your things, you’ll be amazed at how little you really have and how quickly you can pack your home.
JUST DO IT
You can think about packing all you want, but it won’t get done unless you do it. Give yourself a deadline like, “The living room will be packed by Friday. The bedroom will be packed by Saturday.” As long as you abide by your deadlines, you’ll find that packing doesn’t take as much work as it seems.
MAKE NOTES EVERYWHERE
Every box should have a label on it. Kitchen boxes should have a label that reads “Kitchen.” Underneath kitchen, you may want to list what’s in the box. This will help you find what you need when you need it later.
LEAVE BOXES IN THEIR ROOMS UNTIL YOU MOVE
When you put all of the boxes together, you’ll start to feel overwhelmed. Keep the boxes in the rooms you packed them, and then move them to the truck on moving day. This way you’ll feel as though you have more control over everything.
Now that you know how to move in an organized way. Start doing it. Before you know it, you’ll be relaxing in your new home.
