Relocating, even if it’s down the block, is a stressful endeavor. In between packing up boxes, changing your address with utility companies, and scheduling movers, it’s easy to forget things. In fact, the professionals at Nebraskaland Moving of Lincoln, NE, say certain belongings are more likely than others to be left behind when moving. Below, they list a few common ones so you stay aware of them and remember to bring them with you. 

Items People Commonly Forget When Moving

1. Chargers

Many people plug phone and computer charges into the outlets and simply leave them there for convenient use. Unfortunately, because these are small, they’re also frequently forgotten about during a move. Before you leave, do a final sweep of the residence and pay special attention to the outlets to make sure you don’t have to buy a new phone or laptop charger.

2. Medicine

Although it’s a good idea to leave medications out so you can continue taking them regularly, this also makes them easy to forget when you’re moving house. To ensure you bring them with you, set them out on the kitchen counter a few days before you relocate. You’re more likely to notice them there than if they’re hidden in a cabinet.

3. Outside Decor

Often, people who are relocating get so busy packing up the interior of the house, they forget about the outside. As a result, decorations like wind chimes and potted plants are often left behind. Label a box specifically for these items and devote an hour to inspecting the yard and making sure you didn’t leave anything there.
