Moving Tips for Homeowners

Updated: Jul 29



Moving to a new home can be both exciting and daunting. Whether moving across town or relocating to a new city, thoughtful planning and organization can make all the difference. As you prepare for your move, here are some valuable tips to ensure a smooth and stress-free transition:


1. Start Early: Begin planning and organizing your move as soon as possible. Create a timeline that includes decluttering, packing, and scheduling your moving services.


2. Declutter Before Packing: Decluttering your belongings before packing will lighten your load and reduce your moving costs. Donate or sell items you no longer need or use.



3. Pack Strategically: Pack room by room, labeling all boxes. Use sturdy boxes and packing materials to protect fragile items. 


4. Rent a Portable Storage Pod: With a portable storage container pod, you can pack and load at your own pace.  When you are ready we can deliver your pod to your new location.

5. Take Photos Before Moving: Before dismantling electronics or furniture, take photos of how they are set up. This will make reconnecting and reassembling easier at your new home.


6. Contact Utility Providers: Have all services disconnected from your old home and connected to your new one. 




7. Change Your Address:  Complete an address change form with the US Postal Service and update your address with any accounts you hold (Amazon, subscription providers, doctor’s offices, etc.).


8. Create an Essentials Box: Bag with any essentials, including toiletries, medications, a change of clothes, and important documents.


9. Arrange for Child and Pet Care: Moving day can be hectic. Arrange for childcare or pet care if needed to ensure everyone’s safety and comfort during your move.
