Though often time-consuming and tiring, a little organization can make packing and moving go smoothly. Whether you’re moving your family across the country or transitioning your company to the other side of town, consider these three packing and moving tips from E-Z Moving & Storage LLC in Carlsbad, NM. Enlist a few helpers, and get started today.

3 Ways to Organize Your Packing & Moving Process

1. Pack by Group

Don’t throw everything into boxes at random as this will make it difficult to locate items when you get to your new home or office. Instead, place similar belongings that will be unpacked together in one box. This means keeping office supplies like tape and pens together so when you stock your cabinets, the contents will be in one location. Go through every room like this adding similar items to boxes to make it easy to go through and put items away once you arrive at your destination.

2. Label Everything

packing and movingIt sounds simple, but many people forget to add labels or aren’t descriptive enough for the signage to be useful. Instead of writing “bathroom” on a box, jot down “bathroom – cotton balls, nail polish, hair dryer, small drawer storage.” It will take a few extra seconds, but you’ll appreciate that effort when you can easily find your toothbrush on your first night in your new home.

3. Start Early

Moving becomes stressful without preparation, but with some organization, it can be a breeze. Schedule movers a month or more in advance so you know they’ll be available. Begin packing several weeks ahead of time by boxing up items you don’t need between now and the move date. Save the essentials for the last day, but all else can be gradually put away, simplifying your last-minute packing.
