Moving to another home in Massachusetts can be quite a challenge no matter the size of your household or the quantity of your belongings. The process of getting rid of any unnecessary and unwanted belongings, packing everything else up, transporting, and moving is not only tiring but can also take a long time and result in some mistakes that can be easily avoided with a little preparation beforehand. Here are some of the largest mistakes to look out for while you’re moving house. If you avoid these, you’ll be sure to make better memories with which to remember the change.
Waiting until the last minute is tempting, but you’ll be disorganized and in a rush. You might also accidentally damage or lose items in the process. It’s better to get started right away, even if you only do a little bit of packing each day.
Not decluttering: Do this first to better organize your packing and get rid of trash, and unwanted and unnecessary items.
Researching and comparing moving companies will allow you to understand what to look for and have your needs met. Also, movers are people, too, so show them you appreciate them by getting to know each other’s names and offering refreshments.
Your address needs to be changed close to the time you move. Also, it’s a good idea to go ahead and begin mail forwarding once you’re getting ready to move, unless you’re waiting for something important with a short shipping time.
If you’re all packed up and don’t have a survival kit for the interim between the move and the unpacking in your new home, you’re gong to be interrupted. You’ll have to either find the items you need in your boxes or run to the store to buy the essentials.
