Here are some tips for preparing your belongings for packing before a move with Harvest Movers:
-
Declutter: Sort through your belongings and get rid of anything that you no longer need or want. This will make the packing process easier and reduce the amount of boxes and items you need to move. Consider donating or selling items that are still in good condition, as this can also help reduce the amount of items you need to pack and move
-
Checklist: It is also important to make a plan for how you will pack your belongings, such as making a list of items to be packed, labeling boxes, and ensuring that fragile items are properly packed for transportation
-
Gather supplies: Gather all the necessary supplies, such as boxes, packing tape, bubble wrap, and labels, to ensure that your belongings are properly packed and protected during the move
-
Pack room by room: Pack each room one at a time, starting with the least used rooms, to avoid feeling overwhelmed. Label each box with its contents and the room it belongs in. Make sure to pack your items in an organized manner and label the boxes clearly to make unpacking easier. It’s a good idea to pack the items you use less frequently first, and keep essentials such as bedding and towels for last
-
Label fragile items: You can label fragile items using clear, bold labels that are easily visible on all sides of the box, or use colored tape to indicate which boxes contain delicate items. Use bubble wrap or packing paper to protect delicate items. It is also helpful to list specific items that are fragile and their location within the box, so movers know to handle them with care
-
Take inventory: Make a list of all the items you’re packing and keep it in a safe place, so you can easily reference it during the unpacking process
By following these tips, you can ensure that your belongings are properly packed and protected before your move with Harvest Movers.
