Moving and packing advice.

When embarking on the preparations for your relocation, it is common to feel overwhelmed and unsure of where to start. The multitude of tasks can be daunting. However, you can initiate the process by reaching out to the professionals at Economical Movers for a complimentary moving estimate. Additionally, our team of experts has compiled a comprehensive set of moving and packing tips to assist you in streamlining the process and ensuring a smooth and anxiety-free transition.

Professional Tips

1. Get the Proper Equipment

Whether you want to pack yourself or use our packing services, having the right moving tools is vital for a smooth move. You want your costly belongings to arrive at their new location in perfect condition and without a single damage, which is difficult to achieve using flaky boxes found on the street. You need packing materials that can withstand the weight and travel. We recommend buying your boxes from Economical Movers
or another reputable supplier that uses professional-grade materials. The professional quality is cost-effective and will help to prevent damage during the relocation.

2. Identifying Boxes Correctly

Whether you're moving locally or long distance, having the boxes clearly marked will make your relocation go much smoother. You should describe the room where you want the objects to go in the new home or commercial structure, not where they came from. Always inspect a product to see if it is fragile, contains glassware or dishes, or contains liquids that require the box to be maintained upright.

3. Sell, Donate, Dispose

Moving is the most effective spring cleaning you can do! Before you begin packing, go through your home and declutter. Consider all of the items you no longer use or need. Take advantage of this opportunity to dispose of, sell, or donate any unwanted items. Why pay to relocate stuff you won't use when you can sell them for profit or give them away to make another family happy? You can also look into storage options with Economical Movers if you have stuff that you aren't ready to throw away but don't want in your new house.

4. Book Services in Time

Plan ahead of time when hiring Economical Movers, renting supplies, or engaging specialists to work on your home. If you wait too long, you may end yourself paying more or not being able to hire a truck or movers at all, especially during peak moving season.

5. Prep a Bag of Essentials

Your basics bag should contain items that you need at all times during the relocation and/or as soon as you arrive at your new home. It should join you on your travel so that you have the necessities on hand. To be extra safe, bring a large survival box including hygiene items, towels and other bathroom supplies, bed sheets, plastic utensils and plates, food, beverages, medications, and an emergency kit for the entire family.
