Now that you've got your furniture situation squared away, let's get to some other moving ideas for frequent movers!
Moving Hacks for Frequent Movers
Clothes:
Different clothes into seasons. Winter season, Summer, Fall, Spring.
After separating, leave clothes that are on wall mounts, ON the hangers and then wrap a piece of tape around groups of wall mounts (perhaps 5-10 at a time). This will keep them together, and not flop around for the next step.
Then place a trash can over them, and poke a hole through the trash can's bottom for the hangers to come through. Clothes move MUCH easier this way!
Write on the exterior of the trash can which seasonal group of clothing they are.
( Travel Suitcases and Carry Bags).
Get all the luggage and lug bags you have actually and pack folded clothing, kids clothing, socks, underwear, and so on in them.
Sort and Box:.
Plastic Bins with Lids vs. Cardboard.
Frequent movers-- consider buying several plastic storage boxes with lids vs. utilizing cardboard boxes. To start with-- you can reuse them over, and over, and over once again!
They stack nicely, and do not get smushed in the move. AND you do not need to worry about needing to scramble to discover boxes at the grocery store on 3rd shift, right?!
Before you box your kitchenware and home design up, go through and sort. ONLY pack things you want to go inside your new house. Sort whatever else into groups for handing out, throwing away, or selling (if you're having a moving sale!).
Whatever you're taking with you-- store in boxes. You can use clothing to wrap glass items, vs. newspaper.
Books and Documents:.
Do you have lots books and paper piles? Choose your preferred books and sort through the drawers and cabinets full of old documents, expenses, and so on. Throw out what isn't needed! You'll find you need barely ANY of it since many things is done online now.
You can sell or contribute the rest of the books you do not require!
Keep in mind the ASAP needfulls:.
As quickly as you show up to your new house, there are going to be things that you require immediately. Coffee maker, coffee, shower items, towels, cleaning products, paper towels, breakfast foods, fresh clothes, etc. Make certain to pack these things LAST in the moving trucks so that they're the first things you pull out on arrival.
Unload As You Need Things:.
When moved into your new home, only unpack things as you require them. You might find that you have actually got a number of boxes of things that you haven't unloaded in a year. It's apparent, you actually don't want or need these things so you can get rid of them. Less things to need to move, the next time!
