It seems simple enough: pack up your things, and bring them to a new home. But the professional movers at Sam Hollis & Sons Moving & Storage in Foley, AL, understand moving isn't simple. On the way from point “A” to point “B,” moving can stress out even those who've done it many times.   

The professional movers offer four stress-reducing tips for your next move: 

  • Clear Out Old Junk: Now is your chance to directly minimize your troubles by reducing what you have to transport. It helps to divide unneeded items into three categories: sell, donate, and dispose. Start by selling the valuable items. Next, set aside an afternoon to drop off the rest at local thrift stores. Finally, make sure you throw away or recycle anything no one wants.
  • Make Time To Focus: Give yourself an entire day, or even a weekend, to devote to packing. Listen to music or the radio while working, rather than watching TV, which will help you work faster (but of course take plenty of breaks). It may also help to divide your home into packing zones, which you can tackle one at a time.

  • Hire Professional Movers: Save your back, and hire professional movers. You have enough to deal with already! Sam Hollis & Sons Moving & Storage has experienced local and long-distance movers, with a specialty in piano moving.; they'll treat your possessions with care.
  • Pack “Survival” Bags: You still need to live life, even while you're packing everything. Give each household member one bag for their essentials, such as clean clothes, toothbrushes, money, and identification. Be prepared to live out of that bag for a few days, especially during long-distance moves, so make sure it has everything.
