When you're moving to a new home or apartment, staying organized can make a big difference in how smoothly it goes. Moving can be stressful, but you can streamline the process and let someone else take on some of the burden by calling Hercules Moving & Storage, Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky's most trusted residential moving company. Before your next move, consider this list of the most common things that people overlook while moving:

• Labeling Boxes: When you don't hire movers to pack up your belongings, you might forget to mark your boxes with the following information:
  • Which room items belong in
  • Fragile items
  • Essential items that will be needed right away
• Using Proper Packing Materials: Professional movers know what packing materials to use, but you might be in such a hurry that you don't even think about it. You need to purchase the correct number and type of packing materials to keep your items safe.
• Thinking About What You Actually Want Packed: Sometimes people make the mistake of putting everything in boxes without considering what they will need as soon as possible. What about paper towels, clothes, and your favorite foods? Keep these things separate from the rest of the boxes for easy access.
• Setting Up Storage: If you're downsizing, you may not have the space for everything in your new place. Did you set up storage for your old belongings or your old furniture that you may not use?
