MovePak Tip #1

Declutter and get organized.

Save yourself the hassle of packing and unpacking things you no longer use or need. Simplify your move by donating or selling gently used items. Recycle or discard the rest, being careful to properly dispose of hazardous materials such as paint and chemicals.

MovePak Tip #3

Discard hazardous materials properly.

Household items such as paint, paint thinner, pesticides, motor oil, batteries, and electronics can become harmful if not discarded properly. In some states it’s even illegal to throw these items out with the regular trash. Check with your city or area recycling facility for disposal guidelines and community collection information.

MovePak Tip #4

Maximize your living space.

Free up your living space by moving extra furniture and items off-site to a storage unit. Decluttering gives you more room to move about as you pack. It also makes your home appear larger (and more valuable) to potential renters or buyers.

MovePak Tip #5

Make minor improvements.

You don’t need to make major renovations to revitalize your home. Simple improvements such as a fresh coat of neutral paint or clean carpets will quickly restore your home to good as new. Set a budget and prioritize improvements to determine if you can achieve a similar look for less.

MovePak Tip #7

Think twice, clean once.

Paint swatches may look perfect in the store, but when you get paint home and roll a coat, it can be a completely different story. Buy paint by the quart, not the gallon, if you’re testing a new color. When using latex paint, seal brushes in plastic bags and place them in the refrigerator to avoid cleaning between coats.

MovePak Tip #8

Reduce caulking frustration.

Caulking seems simple enough, but can be majorly frustrating. Create clean, sharp lines by masking both surfaces with painter’s tape. Apply caulk, then wet your finger with alcohol (if using silicone caulk) or water (for latex caulk) and smooth carefully with your finger.

Research and budget your move.

Whether you’re handling your move yourself or hiring a moving company to help, it’s important to plan carefully to make the experience more enjoyable and affordable. For DIY moves, calculate rental and supply costs. If you’re screening moving companies, consider costs, insurance, and references.

Time your move right.

Allow plenty of packing time, but don’t start too early or you’ll be unpacking and repacking boxes unnecessarily. Pack away less-needed items first and save the regularly used ones for last. Label boxes clearly in case you need to retrieve a packed-away item.
