Whether you're relocating to another state or across town, moving comes with a lot of stress. While a long-distance move might require a lot more difficulties, a short one has it's own set of challenges. Here are a few tips to make your local move as easy as possible.

Invaluable Advice for Making a Local Move

1. Declutter

Plan ahead by getting rid of objects you don’t want to take to your new home. Part of the expense of a local move includes the manpower it takes to lift heavy objects and boxes. Consider recycling items you don’t use or hosting a yard sale. Donate the remaining items so you can keep your moving load light, and you won’t be stuck with items you no longer need or want.

2. Work With a Residential Mover 

Large pieces of furniture, such as living room sets and bedroom suites, can be hard to move, especially for seniors who are downsizing. Work with a residential moving company to help get those necessary pieces out of your old home and positioned in your new one.

For a local relocation, many movers offer their trucks and helping hands on an hourly basis, so you don’t have to pay for a whole day if your move doesn’t require that amount of time.

3. Move During the Week

To help save you time and money, avoid moving during the weekends. Not only are moving companies busier, but the roads are also more cluttered with others getting out and about to run their weekend errands.

To get from your new destination quickly and easily, consider moving during the middle of the week, such as a Monday or Tuesday. You can spend the weekend ensuring you have everything before spending the next day moving.
