• How should I organize for moving? 
• What kind of supplies will I need?

We’ve got you covered with this ultimate guide on planning for your relocation!

Where should I live?

Moving can be quite a daunting task. All big moves require a considerable amount of research, planning, and careful thought before settling in on your final destination. This way, you will know what size space is suitable for you and your family. When choosing where you want to live, you should choose a place based on both convenience and a desire to be there. When choosing where to live, consider how many family members you have. Then determine the number of bedrooms and bathrooms required in your new home. This way, everyone is comfortable and happy in your new space.

What should I pack first when moving?

Moving requires a lot of planning and preparation. Packing is one of the most stressful steps. When planning for a move, you may need to choose what things are most important to pack first. It is often helpful to start with the most difficult or time-consuming items that would be hard to replace if they are lost during the move. Many times these include electronics and kitchen appliances. A tip to make packing go as smoothly as possible is to go through each room and its contents. That way, you can tackle the project in steps, and you won't become overwhelmed by packing multiple rooms simultaneously.

Packing Tips

• Organize items of importance and pack those items first.
• Pack each room individually until completed, then move onto the next room.
• Label each box accordingly so it will be easy to unpack at your new home.
• Gather all of the necessary packing equipment, including boxes, packing tape, and a label maker.

Transportation When Moving 

You will want to consider transportation when moving. Moving items like massive pieces of furniture will be difficult to do if you have a smaller car. You will want to consider renting a moving truck. You may not know what type of vehicle to rent, Family Moving & Storage can help. We offer many types of transportation, and we can help you with your local or long-distance move.
