The Stress-Free Guide to Moving Your Home_Chispa Magazine
Moving home is a massive stress. When you decide that you want to leave your current abode and move to a new place, you will soon learn how hard it will be. Of course, there are loads of things you should try to remember. If you forget some of the small details, you might find that your move is a disaster. So, what can you do to make the move stress-free?

Step No.1: Plan Your Move
Planning is always the key to your success. When you have an action plan ready, you will find that everything is smooth sailing. You should make a schedule so that you know what will happen on the day from start to finish. That way, you should have no issues when it comes to getting started. Remember, you don’t have to stick to the plan, but having a basic idea of what you want to do will make things simple.

Step No. 2: Take an Overnight Bag
When you move into your new home, you’re not going to unpack right away. Remember, the process could take all day, and so the last thing you’ll want to do is go through your boxes. You’ll need to find clothes and toiletries. You should pack an overnight bag for the move. That way, you will have everything you need for your first night ready when you get to your new home.

Step No. 3: Sort Out the Minor Details
There will be loads of minor details that you need to sort out. For example, if you need to be out of your old house by a certain date, does it match with when you can move into your new home? If the dates don’t quite match up, you should think about your options. One thing you can do is hire a company like AAA Storage to help you out. They can look after your things until you can move them all into your new home. That means you don’t have to worry about waiting for your new house to be ready.

Step No. 4: Hire Movers to Help You
You may think that you can do everything yourself, but you can’t. Moving is hard enough as it is without all the heavy lifting it seems to involve. Look for a local moving company who can help you out. You can tell the movers what day and time to come. They will turn up with a van and help you move everything into your new abode. You should make sure that you have everything ready when the movers turn up.

Step No. 5: Tell People About Your Move
Now, let’s deal with the boring part of moving. You have to let everyone know that your address has changed. That means calling people like your doctor and your bank. Let people know that you’re moving before you do so. That way, everyone will know what your new address is from the day you move into your home. This little tip could save you loads of time later on.

Step No. 6: Have a Day to Settle Into Your New Home
If you plan to go to work the day after moving day, forget it. You’re going to need a day or two to settle into your new home. You’re going to want to unpack and get to know your new house. After all, there is nothing more exciting than exploring a new premises. Before you know it, your new house will feel like home.
