When you're planning a move, you have a lot of decisions to make such as your moving date, whether to rent a moving truck, and how to organize your belongings. The moving and storing specialists at A Storage Place in Sanford, NC, recommend taking the time to make a checklist of everything you’ll need for your move to simplify the process.

Follow these tips to make sure you have everything you need on moving day.

Choose Your Moving Date

Before you start making plans for transportation or storage, sit down and come up with a list of dates when you can schedule your move. Keep in mind that not all dates will be available for moving truck rentals or movers, so it’s a good idea to have a few possibilities.

Schedule a Moving Truck

Chances are, you don’t own a vehicle large enough to transport all your belongings to your new home or storage unit. Moving trucks, cargo vans, and trailer rentals are available to accommodate various size requests.

Hire Movers

Professional movers can help you load and unload any vehicle you use, especially if you don’t have enough volunteers. Some movers will also help you move from state to state if needed.

Decide If You’ll Need a Storage Unit

If you’re moving to a smaller place, you might not know what to do with your excess stuff. Self-storage units are one option. Storage units are available in a variety of sizes and can be used for temporary or long-term use.
