Tips For Getting Ready To Move Property

Tips For Getting Ready To Move Property

Are you getting ready to move property? This is exciting but can be stressful, so the sooner you start thinking about it, the easier the move will be. When moving, there are lots of things you need to think about, from packing to booking a removals company and planning for any repairs. Below are five things for you to think about prior to your move. 

Planning how you are going to decorate each room 

When moving into your new property, you are bound to want to make some changes. Whether these changes will be a complete overhaul, or if you are simply going to repaint or decorate, you will want to start planning these before you move. This will help reduce the stress of the move and allow you not to put loads of furniture in that room if you know you will have to move it out to redecorate. If you need some inspiration, Pinterest has some great examples of how you can decorate each room. 

Will you need to carry out any repairs on the property? 

Before moving, you will have had a survey completed of the property. Once you have received this survey and confirmed you are going ahead, you will want to plan how you will get any issues fixed. If there is a problem with the roofing, you will need roof repair services; alternatively, you may need a landscaper if you have a lot of land that needs sorting out. Hopefully, your survey comes back with no issues at all, but unfortunately, some problems get flagged up. 

Booking in your removals company 

The sooner you get a removals company booked in, the sooner you can plan packing everything up. Depending on your budget, a removals company can supply boxes, help with packing, and move your items to your new property. Some companies get booked months in advance, so it is always advised you get yours booked in as soon as you can. Some companies will allow you to run quotes online, whereas some require a visit to your property to confirm how many items you will be bringing and the van’s size. 

Check out the reviews for the best Movers in your area. Honest reviews from past customers can give you a better idea of how efficient and trustworthy a moving company is and will give you a better idea of what exactly is included with the price so you know what to expect before they arrive on moving day. Remember, moving companies are experts in moving home so when you book in, ask for their tips on how to effectively prepare for the move and what you can do to assist them when they arrive at your home.


Getting rid of all your clutter in the house 

Over the years, you will be amazed at how much clutter you can get rid of. When moving, see it as a fresh start and be strict with yourself, throwing anything away that you don’t use. If it’s been under the bed for a year, chances are you don’t need it anymore. The more clutter you can get rid of, the more minimalist your new property can be and the less you will have to pack and bring with you. 

Getting boxes to pack your stuff in

Bubble wrap, boxes, and sellotape will all be needed when moving to your new property. The sooner you can get these, the sooner you can start packing and reduce the move’s stress. Remember that you will require different types of boxes, such as a TV box or a box for your bottles. Ask your friends and family if they have any you can have as you can reuse their delivery boxes. If you run out of time, Amazon’s next day delivery may be your best bet. 

Ensure Your Current Home Is Fully Functional  

Before you leave, you’ll have to get everything ready on your end. The home will likely become vacant for others to view, or a new party will be taking your place. While you won’t be possessing the house for much longer, you’ll still have a responsibility to ensure they’re not walking into an extremely flawed or vulnerable home. So, keep the fundamentals healthy, deal with nagging problems that may be apparent, and solicit a crawl space repair firm if you have to! How you leave your current home may have a big impact on the chain that keeps the deal alive.
