Golan's Moving Day Tips - How to De-Clutter

Many of us have a tendency to keep a lot of things and forget about them in the future. We stuff our drawers and closets with various items, and then tend to just leave it there for weeks, months, and even years. When moving day is fast approaching and you pull open your drawer once more, you may be taken aback by the sheer clutter that you've accumulated over a period of time. Closets can also be filled with clothes that may no longer fit you. Packing all these things will put you to the test as stress can accumulate more.

DE-CLUTTERING YOUR HOME BEFORE MOVING DAY. A GOLAN'S MOVERS TIP.

In order to keep moving day as inexpensive and as hassle-free as possible, it should be part of your listed procedures to sort the items that you want to bring in your new home from the things that you no longer want to see.

Move ahead of time.

This does not mean that you move your moving day ahead of schedule. What this means is move your behind weeks before moving day. The more time you give yourself to prepare, the lesser stress your mind can handle.

Plan at least two weeks, or even more, before your moving day on what items to keep and what to do away with. Within your busy schedules, block out a few hours for sorting out these items. Tackle a different room each day. By working wisely, you won't be tempted to just throw all your clutter inside boxes.

Start using them.

If you have extra of some items, like toothpaste and toilet paper, then start using them. These things are indeed miniature but can take up space inside your boxes. This holds especially true if you like to buy bulk items from bargain sales. This way, you have less of these items to pack and bring with you for the trip.

Create a bag/box of necessities.

You don't have to pack absolutely everything. For example, you don't have to pack a roll of toilet paper, your medicines, and other essentials. Use a separate box or bag for these that you can hand-carry with you during the trip. This way you will (1) have less items to put inside large moving boxes, and (2) will always be prepared in case of emergencies.
