The holidays are filled with gift buying, parties and family gatherings, making it an already exceptionally busy time. Add moving to that list and your Christmas could go from fantastic to frantic!
Moving during the holidays is not ideal, but with these tips you’ll be able to stay ahead of the stress and make your move more manageable. Read on to find out 7 essential tips to follow from the experts at UNITS Moving and Portable Storage of Tampa Bay to have a relaxing holiday move.
The biggest key to moving during the holidays is to stay organized. By creating a moving timeline that you stick to, you’ll be able to stay ahead and avoid the stress of last minute packing. Our downloadable relocation checklist can help.
Don’t overwhelm yourself by trying to pack everything at one time. Give yourself time to pack each room on a specific day or days. This will also help you keep boxes organized and labeled properly. You don’t want to go insane during the most wonderful time of the year!
Busy, busy, busy. It’s the one word used over and over again by practically everyone during the holiday season, even moving companies. Oftentimes, moving companies will even be short staffed during the holidays. Go ahead and book your movers in advance to ensure you’ll be moved into your new home by your deadline. Our professional moving services at UNITS Moving and Portable Storage of Tampa Bay can be useful.
Communication can get lost in the hustle and bustle of the holidays, so be sure to check in regularly with everyone involved in your move to make sure dates or availability hasn’t changed as well as to ensure all paperwork has been approved, sent and nothing else is needed. But that’s one thing you won’t have to worry about that with UNITS Moving and Portable Storage of Tampa Bay. When you receive your container, you’re free to load it at your own pace. You don’t have to be checking in with us! Keep the container for as long as you want.
Going out to eat a few nights takes the stress out of trying to pack and plan a meal. It also gets you out of the house for a few hours and away from the stacks of boxes you’ve been dwelling over for days. At the end of this article is a list of restaurants local to the Tampa Bay area to take a load off. Check it out!
Don’t deprive yourself of having fun with friends and family especially during a season that’s supposed to fill you with joy! Enjoy your time out and pack around the parties.
The most important thing to remember when moving during the holidays is to stay festive. Wear holiday pajamas while packing, take some time to make holiday cookies, turn on holiday tunes or light a holiday candle. If you have kids, let them draw holiday designs on some of your moving boxes or have them build gingerbread houses which are easy holiday decorations that can be thrown away after the season. Do whatever it takes to create a festive environment that you can enjoy!
