How to save Time and Money when Moving House

Moving to a new house can be both an exhausting and exciting experience. It can also be stressful financially. While exciting for the family, moving to a new home can leave a big hole in your savings when you have to pay for transport, packaging products, storage, petrol and other things involved that comes on top of the mortgage and any other bills associated. However, you can save money to make the move smooth and stress-free by following just five tips below:

1. Plan ahead of time

Waiting until the last day of the move to work out all the packing and planning on how the day will go will surely end up a disaster for you. We recommend hiring a Professional Residential Removalist to offer you a helping hand as packing requires plenty of time and expertise.

What you can and should do is make up a checklist of things to do both before and during the move. You would not get a reliable removalist if you try to book them on the last day and it will probably cost you more time and money, making the experience more stressful.

2. Declutter the home

Try to be brutal about what to keep and what to throw out when packing. Giving your unwanted stuff to charity is rewarding too. Do not attach emotions and get sentimental about things you don’t need or are not in a good condition anymore. This will reduce both your packing weight and time during the moving process and will also give you a fresh and clutter-free start in your new house.

3. Disassemble large items

Carrying huge furniture is difficult and at times nearly impossible. Therefore items such as swings, beds, cupboards, dressing tables and other large objects should be disassembled before the big move. But in case you do not need it or do not have room for it in the new home, donate it to charity or sell it in a yard sale.

4. Pack and label things correctly

You will save a lot of time when unpacking if you put similar items together and label them with the room they belong in. Correctly labeled boxes will save you from opening every box trying to find a specific item whether you pack and unpack yourself or enlist the help of your removalist.
