So the move works without problems
Never lose track
If every little thing has to be packed in boxes, then one or the other thing can get lost. To prevent this from happening, the boxes must be labeled. In this case, small keywords are completely sufficient to always know where which object is located. If you also write on the boxes which room the contents belong in, you will save yourself a lot of stress when unpacking. In this case, the boxes can be brought straight to the place where they belong.
If you want to make it even easier at this point, you can also use colorful sticky notes. A sensible scheme works wonders in connection with bright signal colors. Example: All boxes with a yellow label go in the bathroom, all boxes with a green label in the bedroom.
Get professional help
Many people want to save money when moving. That’s perfectly legitimate, after all you have to pay a lot of money for the deposit, new furniture and possible renovation anyway. But sometimes it is still worthwhile to use the help of a moving company.
If you rely on the help of good friends or family alone, then in the worst case you will be left without any help at all. This can happen, for example, if private helpers suddenly change their mind or become ill at short notice. If, on the other hand, you book real professionals, it will of course cost money. But you also have the certainty that you have active helpers at your side on the day of your move who know something about their work.
Not too much at once
When you pack the individual boxes, you should make sure that not too much is stowed away in these boxes. Of course, the available space should be fully utilized. However, it makes little sense if you only pack heavy things like books, decorations and dishes in a box. It makes much more sense if you pack a few heavy things and fill the resulting empty space with pillows, blankets or other textiles. In this way, you not only use the space optimally, but you can also cushion the content at the same time. In general, it is better if you use smaller boxes if you later have to carry the boxes yourself. In this way it cannot happen in the first place that the boxes are overloaded.
Plan ahead
If you still have enough time before the upcoming move, then you should use it sensibly. For example, think carefully about which furniture should be placed where. For this purpose, look at the plan of the apartment and measure carefully. If you already know exactly where which piece of furniture is to be assembled on the big day, assembly will be much faster. You can also give the helpers clear messages. Fewer misunderstandings about the location of the furniture save a lot of time and ultimately money. Also include furniture in the planning that you might want to buy first. Then you don’t have to laboriously rearrange the old furniture later, you can get started right away.
