Getting to move into a new place is something that everyone really loves to do. It usually represents something bigger and better than you had before. However, there is a really big difference between the excitement of getting to move into a new place and the stress that is involved in actually doing it. That is why a lot of people choose to use a moving company to help them. The best idea is to combine handling some of the work yourself and hiring a moving company to handle some of it.

If you are just out of college and can fit everything you own into just a couple of car trips, you may not need to hire a moving company. However, everyone else should seriously consider this. A lot of people are uncomfortable about giving up so much control by getting a moving company. If you think this might apply to you, you can just get the moving company for certain items. You may want to handle all of your personal items yourself. There could be other items that are organized in such a manner that it is better for you to handle it. However, you can still having the moving company handle all of the furniture and boxes that you put in a certain place for them. This will save you a ton of time, not to mention the physical effort.

A pad of paper and a pen should be your best friend on moving day. You should start a list several days ahead of time listing the last things to be packed. You should also identify the first things that need to be unpacked when you get to your new home. You will also come up with many other items during the day that you will want to keep track of. Keep the note pad in your back pocket and write them down as you think of them.

One of the best ways to make moving day and the following week is to label every box when it is packed. You should already know what the purpose of each room in your new house will be. You should also think about having a plan for each room. If you can pack up your things and label them “top drawer on the right side of the sink”, etc. unpacking will be a breeze.

One benefit is that anyone who is still around can help you unpack, and they will actually be able to put things where you want them. The other benefit is that the items can be delivered to the exact room and space where they belong. Even if you do not get everything unpacked the first few days, everything you need will be in a box in the right room. This also applies to the furniture. Instead of having the movers deliver everything to the living room, you should be able to tell them to put the couch along the left hand side of the south wall.
