Nobody really enjoys moving in Towson– do they? Even if moving is your business or if moving from one location to your dream house has been a goal of your forever, the process of packing, loading, moving, un packing and storing can be daunting for many home and business owners. It’s at this time that many people who are preparing to move wish they’d have access to a magic wand to simply beam their stuff from one location to another. Well, in fantasy land this is possible, but in the real world, there are many small things that a person can do to making moving in Towson a little bit easier.

First Tip – Start With Organization

The biggest mistake that many home and business owners make when moving is they simply start packing without a plan of attack. Just like any successful logistic planning, it’s always a great idea to start with an effective plan of attack. Consider the following:

What am I moving and what am I going to sell or donate? When you know what you’re going to bring with you, and what you’re going to sell or donate it will take away a ton of time from your moving schedule.

What type of location am I moving to? You need to know things about your new location such as garage and storage area, access to each room, how big the doors are and how accessible they are for movers.

What day of the week am I able to physically move from one place to the other? Pick a day that works best for your schedule, but if you can, try to move mid-week. This is usually a better solution for people who can get a day off work because there is less ‘traffic’ in your neighborhood and rates for moving companies might be much lower on weekdays.

Second Step – Do an Inventory

Knowing what you have and what you might have to purchase for the new home is a great way to plan for the move. If you are going to be building shelving, painting walls or adding other amenities to your new home, then make a list of what needs to be done, and when you want it completed. Perhaps a good idea is to do all the ‘build’ stuff at the new house or office prior to moving all your possessions over to the new building or home? Either way, make sure you know for certain what you need to bring, what you need to build and what you need to remove before you move.

Third Step – The Move

Once you are packed, planned and ready to move, make sure you start as early as possible in the day to move your items. When you start early, you will have time during the entire day to deal with unexpected things which always tend to pop up during a move. Also, it’s a great idea to move early because again, once you get into mid-morning and early afternoon, the traffic can be heavier and cause delays in the moving process.

When you plan you’re moving in Towson, the best thing to remember is to plan early and often to make your move as easy as possible.
