How To Make Packing For Moving House Simpler

 

Packing can be a daunting and tiring task, but one that has to be done. That being said, packing doesn’t have to be all doom and gloom. There are tips you can carry to ensure packing up your home runs smoothly and effectively.

Packing Order

To ensure no items get damaged, it’s a good idea to pack the heavier items at the bottom of the boxes, with the lighter items on top. Items that you think are least necessary can be packed first, in comparison to the items that you’ll need access to within the packing weeks. 

Empty Spaces? Fill Them!

To limit the number of boxes you use, make sure to fill any space with other items. You could fill these with lightweight items or even clothing. This will also ensure that the items won’t be moving around in transit but instead supported by other contents of the boxes. 

Save Space

Packing clothes can be a lengthy process, so finding ways of making this simpler is handy. If you’re packing your clothes in a suitcase, then rolling them instead of flat packing can save a lot of space. Another option is to keep all your clothing on hangers and wrap these in a waterproof cover (a bin liner may even suffice).   

Pack By Room

To make it easier for you to establish which items go where packing boxes by room will definitely help. Don’t forget to label them, especially if you’re using cardboard boxes and not plastic! 

Pack In Advance

The last thing you want to be doing is packing on the day of the move. So, give yourself a couple of weeks to give you enough time to organise every room. If you’re finding it hard to motivate yourself to pack, set a timer for a couple of hours a day. Give yourself a treat after all that hard work! 

If your home is in dire need of decluttering, doing this before you move home is a great idea. This means that only the items you need will need to be packed and then unpacked in your new home.
