How To Make Moving House That Satisfying Experience You're Looking For

 Let’s face it - your house should satisfy you; it should be a place you love to be and always want to come back to. But when you’re in the middle of either a long distance move, or you’re just moving a couple of streets over, there’s a good chance you get pretty tired of the four walls you’re moving in and out of! 

But how do you fix that? How do you make moving less stressful and a lot more satisfying at the same time? Well, we’ve got some ideas about it below, so feel free to read on for a bit of inspiration.

Move During the Week

A small point to start off - if you move during the week, the roads will be far less busy, and the moving company you’re using (if you are) will have much lower rates. Wednesdays and Thursdays are usually a good pick for this, as they’re midweek and people are into the flow of the working week by this time, so choose your date wisely! 

Gain Peace of Mind

Go ahead and book locksmith services before the big move-in so you don't have to worry about anything at all. Just because you were given the keys when the papers were signed doesn't mean there aren't other keys floating around out there somewhere.

Get a Proper Packing System

A proper packing system is not only going to feel good to pack up (seeing as you’ll be moving fast and efficiently from one room to another), but it’s also going to be incredibly satisfying to unpack. You’ll know where everything is, and where everything needs to go, simply because you put a bit of effort in beforehand! 

But how do you come up with such a system? Pack the way that makes sense to you, no matter what anyone else thinks. Bundle things up in the appropriate boxes, no matter if it typically doesn’t belong in that room, and make sure any essential items are boxed up last. And then make sure that your boxes are all ready to go, just inside the front door, to ensure they’re moved out quickly to the moving truck.

Speaking of, make sure you work with a moving company that understands your system too; services like SMARTBOX Solutions, Inc. are likely to have much more reliable packing standards, instead of just your Uncle Jim who might not tie things down properly. 

Move in Smartly

Then we come to moving in smartly, which takes a bit of forward thinking. You’ve boxed everything up just right, and now you need to get it all into the right places. So, move in room by room, starting with the bathroom first. It’s the room you’re going to need to use very soon, because you’ve been on a long truck journey, and if you get the bathroom settled into place first, you’ll feel much more comfortable in your new home. It’ll certainly take a weight off the rest of the unpacking, because you have a place to freshen up each and every morning. 

Moving home can be very satisfying when you plan it all out right, but don’t take it too seriously either. Don’t let yourself carry unnecessary stress right now, when you really don’t need it!
