Let AOA Moving help you to put your mind at ease. We put together a list of 5 life hacks for long distance moving that are bound to help you with your planning or maybe even answer some questions you may have had.
5 Life Hacks for Long Distance Moving
Whether you are moving to another city or to another country, you have much to consider about your move. Let’s take a look at a few life hacks for long distance moving to help you plan your move:
Make an inventory
When you are at the start of your move, it is good to start preparing an inventory of your belongings to give you an idea of what needs to move with you. You don’t realize how much you actually have until you start taking inventory of it. An inventory will also be required when getting estimates from moving services, such as AOA Moving Services.
Hire a reputable moving company
Hiring a reputable long distance moving company can really help to ease the load as moving can be extremely stressful when you try to do it yourself. There are so many things that can go wrong, such as a vehicle breakdown or bad weather conditions. All your goods may end up getting totally drenched in rain. Moving companies not only offer transportation for your goods, but package and storage facilities as well. It may be a good idea to choose a company that can offer you storage if it is required in the case of an emergency.
Downsize
A good time to downsize is while you are packing for your move. As you start to unpack your cupboards you will find items that you have not seen for as long as you have been living there. Put together a heap for rubbish to be thrown away, and a heap for goods to be donated. Donate what is still good and get rid of the rest.
Plan around the delivery time
It is always good to plan the move around the delivery time. If your goods can only arrive at your new home two weeks after you do, then you need to plan around living without your belongings during that time. Do pack enough clothing, and ensure your goods have sufficient storage should it be required.
Use the packing service
The magical service that takes care of everyone’s favorite part of moving, packing. This part is the one that everyone hates. Unpacking is fun, but packing is always a boring task. The packing services at AOA Moving Services are fully equipped with moving blankets, bubble wrap, boxes, tape, and all that you need to pack your goods safely.
