Most of the time we move out of the old house and into the new house on the same day. There is however, good argument for moving in on the following day instead, creating a 2 day move. If you can get the keys to your new house the day before your stuff arrives, you have a great chance to clean everything first, or put in new carpets/flooring etc.. It’s so much easier to clean and add new flooring into a space when the house is empty, and then when you put all your stuff into the house you can be sure you’re happy with the state of the house first (think kitchen cupboards, bathrooms, carpets etc.) It may well be worth paying for a 2 day removal service for this very reason. Your current home works for you – without really having to think about things anymore. You have the right flooring, furniture, window dressings etc. that fit your lifestyle. However, when you move you may have agreed to leave certain things in the house such as curtains, freezer etc… As such, it’s worth making a list of these things, remembering to leave them behind and not pack them (put a sticker on things that the removals company shouldn’t touch to be safe). You don’t want to end up moving only to find you have brought something with you that you shouldn’t have!
The last thing you will really want to do is move lots of food – especially fresh/frozen food. You will no doubt have tried to use up as much as possible in the cupboards before moving day, and as such you will have minimal foods once in your new house. It’s therefore worth taking some stress away and organising an online food delivery** for day 2 of your move. That way you know that you will be able to stock up without leaving the house, and you only have to sort out food for moving day and the morning after. Getting your kids involved as much as possible. For the younger ones make a game out of it; like who can pack their toys the fastest. Labeling the boxes can be fun too. Take them to a dollar store, craft store or teacher supply store and let them pick out fun stickers that they can put on the boxes to represent it is theirs. They can also pick out other stickers to help mark the boxes for the rest of the house.
Most truck rental agencies will provide you with the amount their trucks can hold measured in cubic feet. One cubic foot essentially means the volume of a cube whose sides are all 1 foot long. They use this type of measurement to ensure every inch of available space is considered, meaning the space from the floor of the truck’s bed to the ceiling, back to front. Now, most people won’t be using every available inch only because it’s almost impossible to load and pack a truck so well that there are no empty spaces. Because of this, always opt for a slightly larger truck than what you think you need. For your upcoming move you have decided to rent a moving truck but have no clue what truck size you should get – Sound like you? If you search the web you will find many references and opinions, some extremely generic (14′ will move 1-2 bedrooms) and others offering a more advanced opinion (12 ft. truck = 450 cu. ft.). The problem, we believe at least, lies in the interpretation of information provided – 1-2 bedrooms may mean something completely different in Arizona than in New York City.

Man muss einen gemeinsamen Nenner finden, was Preise und Leistungen betrifft. Leider kann man nicht das beste Angebot fur sich finden, wenn man nur einen Dienstleister anfragt. Haufig ist man dann auf nur ein Angebot und dessen reibungslose Abwicklung angewiesen. Wir kennen diese Probleme nur zu gut, da wir selbst als Umzugsunternehmen angefangen haben. Irgendwann entstand daraus die Idee, ein Umzugsportal ins Leben zu rufen, das es beiden Parteien leichter machen soll, einen Auftrag zur Zufriedenheit beider abzuwickeln. Und das mit einfachen Mitteln, ganz fair und kostengunstig. Und der Erfolg unserer Umzugsborse gibt uns Recht!
