3 Tricks to Make Your Move Less Stressful

3 Tricks to Make Your Move Less Stressful

When you buy a new home for sale along 30A, the next step is to pack up your belongings and move.

But moving is stressful.

In fact, a recent Comcast survey says that 47 percent of people would rather spend an hour on a flight with a crying baby than move – and 19 percent would rather have a root canal.

Fortunately, you can use these three tricks to de-stress your move.

3 Tricks to Make Your Move Less Stressful

While we can’t take away all the stress of moving, you can use these three tricks to make it a little easier on yourself:

  • Start a checklist
  • Be the turtle, not the hare
  • Pack a “first day” bag

Let’s take a closer look at each of these so you know what to do.

#1. Start a checklist

Moving requires you to stay organized, so the best thing you can do is create a checklist and put it where everyone involved can see it. Make sure it includes:

  • Contacting utility companies
  • Updating your insurance information
  • Hiring a moving company
  • Changing billing addresses
  • Packing, room-by-room
  • Other essentials, like “hold a yard sale” or “get boxes”

#2. Be the turtle, not the hare

Packing an entire house properly takes time, and you don’t have to get it all done in one day. Instead, start early and take your time. Begin with small tasks, such as getting rid of all the clothes that no longer fit you, or packing up one shelf at a time.

Pro tip: Label every box you pack, and be detailed! You’ll be glad later.

#3. Pack a “first day” bag

Everything you’ll need on the first day in your new place – towels, medications, pet food, toothbrushes and paper plates – needs to go into one bag or box. You’ll hand-carry it to your new home so that you don’t have to go without when you’re finished moving.
