When you are contemplating relocation, it is necessary that you proceed in a systematic manner. Moving-related tasks are stressful and drain you of energy, so if you organize them, the process will become easier and not cause problems or inconvenience at the last minute.
Here is a week-by-week chart to help you along beginning from 5 weeks prior to move:
5 Weeks - Get done with moving-related paperwork, such as to-do lists, contracts, receipts, checklists, and phone numbers. Conduct a room-by-room survey to determine what you plan to keep, sell, and donate. Get valuables like heirlooms, antiques, paintings etc. appraised during this time.
4 Weeks - Get all moving supplies you will need such as boxes, box cutters, tape (packing, masking, and blue painters), tape dispensers, wrapping material (bubble, plastic, and tissue paper), and labels. Wardrobe boxes will be needed to transport clothing as well as light fixtures. Used boxes can be bought from department stores or online at subsidized rates.
3 Weeks - Pack used items, including the contents of the garage, the attic, and other storage areas, as well as out-of-season clothing, holiday decorations, books, and special-occasion dishware. Seal boxes properly with tape.Joliet moving companiesmoving services in Des Plaines
