3 Tips to Help You Save Time Before a Move

Moving to a new home can be challenging, time-consuming, and downright exhausting. The good news is there are ways to simplify the prep and save you time before the move. Here are three of the top tips you can put into play now.

Tip #1: Make a Checklist

While a move seems like one massive process, it actually includes many small moving parts. Keeping track of the details and the to-dos is the best way to stay organized and on track. In the stress and chaos of moving, you might not remember all of the little things that need doing, which is why a checklist will reduce your stress and save you time.

Tip #2: Declutter Now, Not Later

Getting rid of the things you no longer need is an excellent way to prep before your move, and doing it before you start packing will save you a ton of time. As you go through your belongings, start thinking about what you want to have in your new home. If it’s not something, you use a lot, or love a lot, consider donating it, selling it, or throwing it away.

Tip #3: Book Your Movers

Get your movers scheduled asap. Having them booked will save you time as your move gets closer, especially if you’re moving during the busy season. You don’t want to have to scramble and spend your time making a bunch of calls trying to find a company that’s available at the last minute.

Don’t let a move throw you into a panicked frenzy. The Nilson Van and Storage team has everything you need to help you save time, and stress, getting into your new home.
