How to begin? Use these tips to organize, label, and guide your move like a pro. And also it will help in choosing the best moving services to get your work done with ease. Chicago movers are on their way to help you in moving without it becoming a nightmare.
1. The Books
Store them flat in small boxes, so they don't get broken.
So it will be easy to carry.
2. Get Organized Ahead Of Time
Prepare boxes that are strong and easy to lift, and protect anything fragile.
3. The Glass
You can use foam or paper to wrap cups and glasses. You can use the Leroy Merlin Capsa protection kit to keep them from moving around in the box.
4. The picture and mirror frames
Put corners on your corners to protect them—store face-down with something soft on top.
5. Textiles
Pick big enough boxes so the items won't get crushed or bent. Since they are the lightest, put them on top.
Tips For Moving Without A Mover
A move can be messy if you don't have a good plan. But, we know how to avoid it, get everything without trouble, and put everything back without wasting time or nerves. Are you curious?
Set Up: The Three Steps In A Transfer
● Before
Make a list of everything you need to pack. Then, prepare solid, easy-to-lift boxes that can hold even the most fragile items (glass, porcelain). Mark each box with a name and a number.
● During
Move ahead with what you don't use every day. Bring essential papers, plants, or things of value with you. You can move the clothes around with the help of the suitcases.
● After
Organize rooms: kitchen first, bedrooms, and common areas. Unpack the essential items first. Set a reasonable deadline for yourself to get everything in order.
Seize And Get Rid Of Objects
Clean up and only take what you want to use and keep. For example, move forward clothes from another season or books that you can pack ahead of time.
Pick small boxes that don't weigh much.
Ensure the full boxes don't weigh more than 20 kilos, so they are easy to lift and move. Use small packages, and ensure they don't bend or bulge when full.
Make A List And Tag The Boxes
Room-by-room, number the boxes and write down what's in them (do not put crockery, better put deep plates). Make a list of the packages and what's inside each one, and mark which ones you want to open first.
Watch Out For The Fragile
Use packing paper or bubble wrap (newspaper can leave stains) and mark boxes as "fragile."
A Box For Each Person
Give each family member a box and tell them to fill it with what they need right away (toiletries, keys, clothes). Always keep important papers like certificates, receipts, and deeds with you.
The Heaviest Boxes, Below
Stacking and keeping the boxes stable is easier if they are complete. Gather all the boxes and put the ones with the most weight on the bottom. Sort the fragile ones and those with liquids from the rest, and make sure they are all there.
Unpack In Order Of Importance
Set the boxes up in my room and start with the most important ones. Start with the bedroom and kitchen. It's better to have one room unpacked than many half-empty rooms.
Everyone In The Family Likes Order
Each family member is responsible for putting their suitcases and boxes in their room and working together in the common areas. If everyone helps, everything will be set up in a few days.
By Colors
Give each room a tone so you know where to put each box. You can use stickers or washi tape.
