to start a new life. Then all of sudden, you
panic. Dreading the hardest thing you have to do,
packing! Who should you call? How would you find
time to start packing? Even though you have a few
weeks left, there would be so many things that
you have to do before you lock the current door
and open a new one. It is indeed very stressful.

that could ease your tension before you start
over at your new apartment. Prepare a
checklist This must be done at least a month
before you are moving. Take time off from work or
your studies for a day, once you have found your
new abode. Prepare a checklist of things you have
to do. Talk to your family and friends for ideas
and reminders. Include the important things like
Finding a movers company, you want to use. Go
around the house look for the things you wont
need. Trust me, you will find plenty of things
that you will feel like leaving behind. Dont
forget to order the boxes, according to the sizes
that you would need along with the bubble wraps
for the glass and decorative items. Pause, think
and start Take one thing at a time. Throughout
the weeks and a week, before you move, you may
want to take the items you dont need and arrange
them sell or give away or simply drop it at your
nearest thrift stores. Call and take quotes and
information from more than one mover, before you
choose the right one. Once you check that off the
list, spend a day or two to update your addresses
with your utilities providers. Also, list the
things in the order of packing and how you are
planning to let the movers carry the boxes into
the van. You have to keep in mind that when you
are in your new place you will need your utensils
first and you will be cooking at least until the
day before you have to move. So, pack the
essentials in the end. Pack and be ready Now
you have days left however, you are now less
worried because all the planning and arrangement

left to do. Stop buying fresh groceries and
frozen items.

Make sure your existing utility bills are paid
and updated. Talk to the landlord if necessary
about it and confirm once again, when you hand
over the keys. Recheck if all the unwanted things
are given away. A day before you are moving,
explain your plans to the movers. Label and
arrange the boxes and furniture in the order of
importance. Your kitchen and office equipment
must be the last to go. As it would be easy for
you to place it first in the new place. Dont
leave the old house trashed. Remember, like you
are expecting the new apartment to be clean,
there is someone who wants the same. Now that the
three essential things are done, your apartment
moving just got easier. Happy Moving! Source
