Stress-free moving? Here are 8 ideas to make it happen

According to surveys, moving can turn into one of the most stressful events in a person’s life. Managing chaos and coping with change is not easy but there are tricks that can help you.

You need to organise a move but don’t know how?

If your company has to move to a facility with larger offices or a more spacious warehouse, or you have to move to a new house, follow these 8 tips to do it in an orderly and practical way.

1) Start with the boxes

The first essential choice for a perfect move is the boxes!
The most practical boxes for moving are those with handles and an automatic bottom.
This type of box is very durable and is very quick to assemble and close thanks to the practical automatic bottom. The handles, which are present on both the short and long sides, make transporting them considerably easier and make them particularly suitable for moving.
In addition, the practical side tables allow you to quickly catalogue and identify the contents of each box.

2) Meticulously catalogue each box

Meticulously labelling your boxes is essential for finding everything you are looking for at a glance once you arrive in your new environment.

Write with a felt-tip pen and legibly but try to be as precise as possible, it is not enough to write ‘kitchen’ on the box!
Once you have found your method, it will be easier. For example, in addition to writing ‘kitchen’, add the contents of the box (glasses, plates, frying pans…) so that you can organise them better and don’t have to open each box to find out what’s inside.

3) Safeguard your furniture with plastic liners

Plastic covers allow you to protect your furniture during transport without risking unnecessary damage. They may seem negligible but they will make a big difference.

4) Protect your plates and glasses with honeycombs

Dishes and glasses are two of the things that break most frequently during removals. To avoid this unpleasant inconvenience, use plastic liners.

For additional protection use cardboard interleafers, which are indispensable when you have to separate fragile items.

5) Transport your clothes easily with the clothes hanger box

Transporting clothes during a move, especially delicate ones, requires a lot of care.
The solution for not wrinkling them and being able to store them directly in the new wardrobe is the clothes hanger box: a travelling wardrobe for your clothes, ideal for moving!

This special box is also equipped with: side handles, a front door that can be opened, an internal hanger rod and a hanger bar.

6) Organise all your documents with multipurpose boxes and archive containers

We recommend that you transport your most important documents neatly in the archive boxes. Divide them up by subject or type and store them in the multipurpose boxes.

7) Add things at the last minute with the versatile telescopic boxes

Did you forget a shirt? A photo album? No problem! Thanks to the telescopic boxes that adjust in height, you can add what you missed.

8) Estimate your time frame

We leave you with one last tip: remember to start on time!
Prepare a ‘roadmap’ with dates and deadlines to help you plan all the steps comfortably in advance.

Until next time!
