Packing up all of your belongings prior to a move can seem like a daunting task. However, if you have a game plan and the right moving materials, you can stay on track smoothly and get everything ready for moving day. Here are some of the most important things to tackle as you begin.

3 Strategies to Be Ready for Moving Day

1. Take Inventory of Your Home

Have a rough idea of what you’ll need to move before you physically start packing. This allows you to invest in enough boxes and protective wrapping to get everything ready. Go room by room to determine how much you have and whether or not any items might require specific types of packing materials.

2. Declutter

As you take inventory, it’s the perfect opportunity to evaluate whether or not certain items will be needed in your new space. If there are things that you no longer want or have space for, sell them, give them to friends, or donate them to a local charity.

3. Create a Room Packing Order

Once you have your belongings narrowed down, it’s time to start packing. Go room by room so all your boxes can be designated to those particular spaces in your new home.

Start with the rooms or spaces that you use least since you’re unlikely to need those items before moving day. These might include your basement, garage, or spare bedroom. Then work your way toward the spaces that have items you use every day, such as your kitchen and bathroom.
