Idea
All of us know that pre-move packing and preparations are the two most dreaded tasks ever. But what adds to this hassle is when you struggle to decide where to start the packing task and where to end it. This entire phase – that begins right from when you get the moving idea, till the time when you are about to step into your new home – is full of nervousness and there is always a constant hustle in our heart and mind about the ‘What ifs’ – what if my goods do not reach me on time, what if something gets lost or misplaced, who would I ask if there is something wrong, what if I fail to track the status of my consignment, etc., etc. – but here in this blog post, we will not talk about all these upsetting stories but will simply discuss about how we can keep track of our packing task by following a simple packing process that tells us about – What to pack first and what to pack last during a move?
THINGS TO PACK FIRST
• Rooms - Let’s start with the rarely used spaces and rooms of our homes. We can start packing articles from the guest room, the storeroom, the basement, and the garage. These rooms are seldom used and we assume you would not need the majority of the goods kept in these spaces before the final moving day.
• Items - Then we can have a look at all other lesser-used rooms so that we can tackle the packing task of some more rarely used items. You can pack the electronic items and some kitchen and general household appliances too which you know would not come to use before your move. Packing all of these items from your household and keeping them aside would let you lessen the clumsiness and packing chaos in your home to a great extent.
• Accessories – Now that your moving day is getting closer with every passing day, you would certainly not be thinking about how your home looks at this point. Just accomplish the packing task of all the décor items, artifacts, and antiques before the professional movers reach your place. The reason why we are asking you to pack these delicate items yourself is that they are too delicate and also have good monetary and sentimental value.
• Clothing – We know just like any other household, your closet and every possible clothing storage station in your home would be overflowing with clothes. Keeping aside the ones you frequently wear, and the ones that you wear for office and corporate events, you should pack the rest. Packing clothes is another big struggle, so start early and opt for the smart, time-saving cloth-packing techniques, so you can manage this complicated section of your household on time. Many people do not like the idea of the professionals handling their items, so they prefer doing it themselves.
THINGS TO PACK LAST
• Kitchenware – While some people prefer packing the kitchen first but since it is one of the most dreaded sections of our home and equally time-taking, you can pack that once you are done with managing the remaining rooms and spaces of your current home. Also, make sure to seek professional assistance in the project because packing all those bulky appliances and odd-shaped tools is not easy.
• Toiletries – Well, you simply cannot pack your bathroom essentials the first thing when it comes to moving. This is because you will need at least the basic ones until the last day of your move. So, you should pack the essentials when you and your family are done with getting ready for the day. Remember, most of the toiletries like shampoo and conditioners, hair oil, body oil, sanitizer, body wash, etc. can leak if not secured amply with bubble wraps and transferred within zip-lock bags. So, prepare them like this to ensure minimal spill and leakage during the transit.
• Medicines – Your medicine kit has to be kept handy. Not only that, if you are carrying too many medicines and ointments, you should know where exactly you have kept each of them in specific so you do not struggle to find them while on the move. You should also have the medical tape, scissors, cotton roll, and other needful medical items with you along with the prescriptions.
• Documents – The document folder is the most important thing that you should keep with you. Before leaving your home, have a look at it again to see if all the essential evidence and paperwork is right there. For quick access, you can keep an e-copy of your identity proofs and documents with you on your phone. Some of the key documents include your driving license, passport, insurance papers, medical proofs, birth and marriage certificate, employment papers, and agreement papers.
• Essential devices – Can you survive the moving journey without your mobile phone, your headphones, and your charger? Also, you would need to keep your laptop along to tackle the boredom of the road journey. So, keep all of this important equipment and devices with you in a separate bag so that you can quickly zone out from the moving struggle and enjoy your time watching a good movie or listening to your favorite music.
Packing does not have any set process. Everyone can have their way of packing things and proceeding to the next task. But, by following a particular packing order, we can track the status of our packing, and with the tips shared above; we can keep a check if everything is in place. So, book the movers and packers in Nasik on time, and refer to these tips to see your move happen to like a gentle wind!
