Our Rockford long distance moving company has been in business for over 150 years so you can bet we know a thing or two about planning a move that takes you across state lines. Here are the top tips from O'Mara Moving for making your long distance move a success.
Utilize Storage Services
Planning a long-distance move can create a lot of anxiety and stress, especially when it comes to packing everything in boxes. If you want to get started early, it means putting up with boxes strewn all over your home. In addition, moving into your new location can be a hassle if you’re trying to live around boxes for the first few days or weeks.
A long distance move is much easier when you choose Rockford long distance movers that offer short- and long-term storage services. That way you can pack and unpack on your own time without tripping over boxes when you’re trying to arrange the furniture.
Know What to Pack Last
It’s a good idea to start by packing all that stuff you don’t use very often, like knickknacks and books, but do you know what items you should pack last?
Before you start packing, make a list of the things you will pack last. Then, make sure you pack all that stuff in a well-labeled box so it can be unpacked first at your new location. A few ideas of things to include in that box include:
- Phone chargers
- Tablets and laptops
- Toilet paper
- Hand soap
- Basic tools
