Making The Move After Closing Enjoyable!

You’ve finally completed the exciting process of home buying! What’s your next step? Moving in! Here are some tips we came with to make moving a little more fun…

#1 Pack Weeks In Advance

Don’t wait until the week before you move out to pack up all your things. Pack up decorations or things you don’t use on a daily basis weeks or even months in advance. Take baby steps, a day at a time and don’t rush.

#2 Download APPS

There are actually apps out there that can help you keep track of what you put in each box. It’s called Moving Van. Snap a picture of each item you put into each box, number the boxes, and mark which box goes in which room and you’ll never lose track of anything.

#3 Keep An “Important” Box With You

Make sure you keep some clothes for the first few days, toiletries, check books, and anything else you may need in one box so you won’t be running around the whole house looking for items you need daily. Make sure this box stays with you and doesn’t go with your movers because you don’t want to lose it.

#4 Make A Packing Music Playlist

You’ll definitely have more fun packing and unpacking when you’ve got upbeat music to dance to! Don’t let moving stress you out too much. After all, you’re finally moving into your dream home, celebrate a little!

#5 Bribe Yourself

Every time you unpack a big box or even get a whole room organized, celebrate! Give yourself a break, eat some junk food, take a nap, whatever you want to reward yourself with, go for it. No accomplishment is too small!
