With the removal looming, you will likely have a few questions about how to go ahead with the day itself. In most cases, the face that people move so irregularly means that the experiences of the moves that they do carry out are not remembered for the next, and hence the process of learning about the whole thing starts again in earnest. If you want to avoid this re-education, then having a few hints and tips prior to the move process can be useful, as well as talking to your removals company about everything. In the event that you want to get a head start even before you have booked your company then have a look over the following ideas, after all, booking the company is one of the largest steps!So, the main thing that people who are having a nightmare removal need is time. If you want to avoid panic and stress, the best way is to start as early as possible with the planning, and ensure that you are not at risk of getting stuck with too few days in which to get things done. Panic and lack of time leads to rash decisions and mistakes, that will more often than not cause disasters that become very expensive to solve. Begin planning a good couple of months before the move date, and have everything set out on paper before you have even started packing, as this needs some thinking about as well.Finding your removal company will dictate how smoothly the move goes, as you will no doubt be wanting to find a company who are equipped to ensure that your move goes ahead in a friendly and efficient way. A great removals firm will provide you with advice and materials if you need it, and can be a great source of knowledge for anything that you are unsure of. Ask your friends if they can recommend anyone, and be sure to get a wide range of quotes having asked lots of questions, to ensure that you are getting the best value for money that you can. With the packing, be sure to think carefully about the order in which you do things. Whilst you don’t want to half pack up rooms, you also need to avoid packing up items that should be left out for use. There is nothing worse than opening up packed boxes because it turns out you need something that you have wrapped and packed, so think carefully about what you pack and when. To avoid difficulty when finding things from the boxes, put a rough inventory on the outside. Don’t be overly detailed as it will take ages, but a short list so that you know where things are in case of an emergency, which will also make the unpacking a lot simpler. Have a think forward to the day of the move and ascertain whether you have all the bases covered; will the van be able to park, is there anything that might not fit through the doors of the new place, do you need a babysitter, or someone to look after pets? The list goes on and on, so it is important that you really do sit down and have a good think about what it is that you are likely to miss out, as otherwise you may only remember when it is too late! The main objective is to stay calm and rational, in order that you are not likely to do anything ridiculous that could end up costing you dearly!
