1)      Prepare in Advanced 

When moving house, you’ll need to organise lots of things in advanced. Firstly, you need to make a list of everything. This includes getting enough packing material, what furniture items you want to take with you, as well as the items you want to leave behind. Organisation is key!

2)      Moving Boxes 

It is important to make sure everything is packaged correctly into boxes, it’s vital to get “moving” boxes plus other packing materials, including bubble wrap, tape, wrapping paper. Fragile stickers are also a great idea. You can obtain these thing from local stores or you can visit We Move Anything for a wide range of quality moving materials.

3)      Communicating with your House Removals Company

At this stage, communication is important! You need to make sure that your chosen removals company is willing to help you at any time. You should establish the moving date – this is vital and you should confirm with the removals company again a few days before your moving date.       

4)      Decide what you will be taking and what you will be leaving behind 

Firstly, to make things a whole lot easier you should go around each room and make a list of all the things you are definitely taking with you – or if it is easier take some post it notes around with you and colour code what you are keeping, donating or recycling/disposing. A useful tip to know, if you are moving abroad, it is a requirement at customs to make an inventory of everything you are taking.

5)      Access for home removals van 

It is important to think about where the moving van will be on your moving day. We suggest to avoid any disputes, to give your neighbours a heads up prior to your moving date. That way your moving day should run as smoothly as possible, as it gets rid of any unnecessary stress.

6)      Notify water, gas, and electric companies ahead of time!

It is important to remember that when moving address, you will need to notify and change everything that has your address. This includes, drivers license, bank accounts, you would even have to notify your employer as well as update school details. And don’t forget about your doctors, dentists etc.

7)      Packing 

When it comes to packing your items yourself, remember to have a clear system in place – this will make things so much easier when it comes to unpacking your items. Make sure that same or similar items are packed together e.g. towels, cleaning products, shoes.

It is always best to clearly label boxes e.g. what’s inside and for what room. That way movers will know exactly which box goes in what room. A printed plan of the property with clear room names can also be beneficial as this ensures that boxes are definitely being put in the correct rooms.

8)      Don’t pack personal documents, money, and jewellery!

When it comes to packing valuable items it is important to keep them separate from everything else, and with you during your moving day. That way you know they are safe and secure and won’t get damaged. You may also need the personal documents when it comes to signing off for the keys and having them to hand is important.

9)      Be present on the day of moving.

Being present on the day of moving is essential, as this enables the day to run as smoothly as possible.

10)      Check your old house once more. 

You should check that you haven't left any items behind. Items could include any rubbish, old bits of furniture as well as any forgotten items. It is always important to check! Make sure that you have also turned off the electricity, gas and that you have closed all the windows.
