There is no denying the fact that long distance moving is a stressful task. With so much on the line, it can be truly difficult to avoid stress and anxiety. But, it doesn’t have to be that difficult.

While it takes a great deal of planning and estimation to know what exactly you need to move to your new location and what packing essentials you would require, you can still carry forward a stress-free and successful move if you pay attention to these below-discussed points.

Yes, the purpose of this post is to highlight 5 old school rules to break if you really want to get ahead of your moving game.

  1. Do-It-Yourself Approach.
    Handling your entire move by yourself can be pretty hectic. Involving your friends and family and asking them for help may not be easy considering they’re busy and you don’t want to disturb them. But, for your own mental peace, it’s important that you make your moving a group affair. Get everybody involved. You can even assign small tasks to your younger ones like packing their toys or stationery.
    By converting it into a combined activity, it will become easier and more enjoyable as carrying forward your long-distance move without any help can be frustrating. Another way to make your long-distance move less stressful and smooth is to hire professional movers and packers. They will eradicate the hurdles of carefully packing your belongings or transporting bulky articles. Make sure to do your research and check out different options before finalizing the moving company for your move.
  2. You Can Pack One Night Before.
    It takes a great deal of planning and efforts to successfully carryout your long distance move. Don’t be overconfident and don’t leave everything for the last minute. “You should start packing at least 6 to 8 weeks before the actual moving day”, says Anton Halushka, the C.E.O. of California Movers, San Francisco.
    Keep in mind, it’s not possible to pack all your valuables overnight. Give yourself enough time. You can even make a checklist to avoid any last-minute confusions. Arrange appropriate packing supplies and take time to downsize. You can arrange a garage sale to get rid of the things you don’t need at your new location because of weather or space. Donate or sell them before your move. Obviously, all these activities need time. When you give yourself sufficient time, it’s much manageable.
  3. Labeling is Not Important.
    This is certainly one of the most important yet often neglected steps. Every single carton needs to be properly labeled for the long distance move. This guarantees that the entire moving process goes effortlessly, so that none of your valuables get misplaced, and that you can conveniently locate what you need when you finally arrive at your new location.
    Also, it’s very important to mark fragile or breakable items. Whether you’re handling your long distance move on your own or have acquired services of a professional moving company, meticulously labeling your boxes can reduce the risk of damage.
  4. You Should Focus on the Moving Process Only.
    Although, moving is a stressful job and you have to be completely focused and disciplined to handle it with perfection, it’s also important to take care of yourself during the process. Generally, people fail to remember taking care of themselves which result in lack of sleep or inadequate diet. In certain cases, people totally abandon their workout routine and some of them even forget to take a breath of fresh air.
    But, did you know it will only add up to the stress you’re already having due to the hectic moving process? To stay active, make sure to consume healthy diet, drink plenty of water and continue your workout regime to stay fit and alert.
    To reduce irritability and stress, you can even take warm shower to sustain your energy levels. Try to involve your friends, family and grown-up kids into the process. Don’t forget to throw a farewell for your loved ones in the end to have great memories that you can cherish even after moving to the new place.
  5. The Right Moving Supplies Aren’t Necessary.
    Appropriate packing essentials can make or break your moving experience. Always select high-quality packing supplies such as cartons, bubble wraps, sheets or packing tape to ensure safe and secured transportation of your valuables from one place to the other. Luckily, there are many online portals available these days that offer discounted moving supplies to the visitors. Make sure to skim through different options to pick the right moving supplies for your upcoming move. You can even ask your nearby retailers or shopkeepers to provide you with suitable boxes or moving cartons.
    There you have it. Break these 5 golden rules to make your long-distance move stress-free and effortless. Happy Moving!
