TIPS FOR A STRESS-
FREE MOVE
By Terry Moving and Storage
Introduction
Moving to a new home is one of the great
stressors in life, but planning ahead can
reduce the stress significantly. To make your
next move as calm as possible, follow these
tips:
Hire the right movers
Before singing a contract, research moving
companies and ask for estimates. Always meet
with movers in person before committing to a
business; these people should earn your trust,
as they will be handling your most valued
possessions.
Pack the essentials
conveniently
Label the box that contains the items you will
need immediately (e.g. toilet paper and
cleaning supplies) and pack it last so that it is
immediately ready to unpack.
Empower your children
If you have kids, you can make moving easier
on them by including them in the process of
packing, decorating their new room, and
exploring the new neighborhood. Young
children especially may have a hard time when
their toys are packed up. Allow children to
choose one special toy to leave out of the
boxes and carry with them; this will help ease
their anxieties about the move and make them
feel included in the process.
Eat, drink, and rest
Be sure to pack water and food in a handy
place. Nothing makes a move more difficult
than failing to hydrate, eat, or get sufficient rest
while attempting to set up a new home.
