Moving Hacks That Will Save You Precious Packing Time
July 17, 2014
Moving can be a stressful process. Let’s face it, we’ll take anything we can get in terms of helpful hints about moving efficiently. Let your Phoenix movers do the heavy lifting, but use these moving hacks to help cut down on the stress and keep your moving day a smooth one.
Mark the boxes…with all the info. Most people just write “books” or “toys” on each box. But try packing and labeling each box with exactly where you think it should go in your new home. For instance, “books on shelf in girls’ room” will go a long way in helping both you and your movers know where to take the boxes. Remember that you’ll likely be exhausted on moving day, so any early effort that can save you some sanity is worth it.
Tape those drawers. For smaller furniture, tape the drawers shut so they won’t fall out while moving. For anything bigger and heavier, remove the drawers and use Saran wrap or Press ‘n’ Seal to keep your stuff in place while it jostles around in the moving truck.
Bag the clothes! Moving clothes on hangers is always super awkward. Save yourself some time by taking a large trash bag and scooping up 10-12 items at a time. Get the kind of trash bags with a drawstring and get an extra 10 bonus points! This will not only make moving the hanger clothes a lot easier, but it’ll keep them clean while moving, too!
