Finding the right house to move to is exciting, but once you have bought it you need to get organized. There is the packing to be done and organizing the removals. Letting the utility companies know then a final clean of your old house and a first clean of your new house. Say goodbye to your old house as you hand over the keys before moving to your new house to unpack. Call some friends and invite them to help you, in exchange for food and drink.
The first thing you should do is get organized and make a list of what needs to be done. You can tick each item off as you complete it, that way you will not forget anything. This also means that you are able to let everyone who is helping know which jobs you want them to do, and put their name next to the job.
Packing requires lots of boxes and tape, marker pens and padding for delicate items. Mark each box as you pack it, with the name of the room you would like it in, so it goes in the right place in the new house. The less directing the movers need the sooner you can begin to unpack.
Many removal companies will provide packaging materials with their service, some even do the packing for you. Removal companies provide a team of professionals to move your belongings and often offer insurance in case of accidental damage. If you are leaving a small house or flat you may be able to hire a van which, with one or two trips, will hold everything you need to move.
It is sometimes the case that within the documentation of sale of the house, you are requested to leave the utilities on. Ring your providers and let them know that you are changing address and make sure that your payments are up to date.
When leaving a house, unless it is to be demolished, it is good to clean it one last time. This lets you check for any forgotten items that might have been left around. It is also nice for the new tenant or owners to come into a clean house. More than likely though, even if you move into a house that has been thoroughly cleaned you will probably clean it again as you unpack.
Unpack your most needed items first, kitchen for tea and coffee making and the bathroom, then bedrooms and other rooms. If the boxes were marked when you packed up, you should find them in the right place. This means that if it gets too late, you can find the items you will need first thing in the morning, and only unpack the things you need. Remove the packaging from each room as you work and it will seem like a quicker job.
If you have plenty of friends willing to help, why not buy some food and drink and have a packing party and an unpacking party at the other end. This will shorten the time spent packing and give you more time for the unpacking party at the new house.
With organization your packing and removals can be done quickly and efficiently, the utilities dealt with and everywhere cleaned. This means you are ready to travel to your new house sooner, to unpack and party.
