So if you\u2019re looking at ways to reduce your carbon footprint while still having a low-stress move, you\u2019ve come to the right place. Here are three moving tips to make green moving easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tip-1-get-eco-friendly-moving-supplies\"><strong>Tip #1: Get Eco-Friendly Moving Supplies<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cardboard boxes are the biggest waste factor from moving. One way to green it up is by finding used moving boxes. You can ask neighbors and friends for theirs after their move or purchase them used. Regarding packing materials, you can reduce waste and negative land-fill impacts by avoiding plastic and foam peanuts and sticking to paper. Or, better yet, use towels, linens, and clothing, when possible, as packing material. And recycle both packing paper and moving boxes after your move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tip #2: Be Careful When Decluttering<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s tempting to toss everything you don\u2019t want to move in the trash, but there are better ways to ensure a green move. For example, have a garage sale, donate to a charity, or recycle items before automatically sending them to the dump. Many items are easily repurposed and appreciated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tip #3: Avoid Multiple Trips<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of making more than one trip from your old house to your new one, have a professional moving company assess your belongings and give you an accurate quote. Evaluating your home before moving ensures the right number of trucks and movers to complete it in one trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking care of the planet is critical, even during a move. If eco-friendly moving is at the top of your priority list, make sure you work with a moving company that feels the same.
