Hiring
professional movers, like those found in Golan's Moving and Storage, is a great
way to make any move a lot less cumbersome. With the aid of packing and moving
experts, you will be ensure that all of your relocation plans will go smoothly
as possible.
However,
if you really want to speed things up and make everything easier on the part of
the movers and for yourself, you can deal with early preparation methods prior
to when the packers arrive at your place.
SOME WAYS TO PREPARE FOR MOVING DAY AS TOLD BY GOLAN'S MOVING AND STORAGE
Contact the moving company as soon as
possible
NEVER
wait until the last minute to get in touch with a moving company. Companies in
the moving industry are generally very busy and may have their schedules
fully-booked. So it's better to contact them as soon as you get the news about
your next move. Otherwise, if you leave it until the last second, then you may
have to deal with everything by yourself.
When contacting movers, be specific as much
as possible
You
can get a rough estimate on costs when you call the moving company, but you
have to be as specific as possible when giving details. Tell them the layout of
your house and a rough estimate on about how many boxes you'll need. Also, tell
them about the obstacles that they may encounter around your home. Still, don't
go as far as what type of floors do you have and the color of the walls in your
home; they don't need those details.
Hire a babysitter for the kids
During
all the hustle and bustle of packing and moving, you may not have enough time
to play or even take care of your children. Hence, contact your favorite
babysitter to look after them for the day (or days) when you feel like there is
so much to do and so much that needs to be done.
Labeling your boxes
Professional
movers can take care of this for you, but if you want to get a head start on
things, then make sure that you put a label on each box as to what type of
items are inside. You can be as simple as possible with it too. For example,
just writing "toys," or "silverware," or "fine
china" on the boxes will let you immediately know what are the items
inside and it also tells you if the stuff inside are fragile or not.
