Start by making a list of all items to be moved. Make two columns beside each item, one to keep a numerical listing of the boxes and the other for the room destination of each box. As you pack, remember to mark the number, the destination, and the contents on each box.
Packing for your big move can be done months in advance. Anything not needed until after your move can be packed now such as kitchen items and out-of-season clothes. As you sort through your closet, discard any items that haven’t been worn in the past two years.
Moving all of your clothes can be very simple. The chest of drawers can be left alone as each full drawer can be moved individually. Hanging clothes can be moved in wardrobe cartons obtained from your moving company. Clothes can be taken from the closet tight to the carton.
Consider organizing your new closets now. Creative Closets’ expert design team will meet with you in your current home, obtain an inventory, and customize your new closets to meet all of your needs. An inventory of your present wardrobe is essential to making the most of your new closet space. The newly organized closets can be installed in your new home prior to your move.
When loading your moving van, put the heaviest items near the front of the truck and sofas and mattresses on the sides of the truck. Remember to rent a van that fits your needs. The tighter your van is packed, the safer all of your items will be.
Now that you are starting fresh, organize your new home once. Don’t try to tackle this in one day.
Enjoy your new home!
