Two Months Before
Two months before your move, it’s a good idea to secure your next home. If that’s not possible, at least start inspections and applications for homes. Alongside this, it’s time to sort your belongings and if possible, get rid of a few things! Spring cleaning, anyone? Go through every room of your house and decide what you’d like to keep and what you can donate, throw away or store.
This is also a good time to research moving services. The best interstate removalists are right here at Dawson Moving and Storage NQ!
Six Weeks Before
Six weeks before your move is when you need to order any supplies you might need, like moving boxes, tape, eco bubble wrap, newspaper and markers. Search local community groups online or ask friends and family; you probably won’t have to spend too much money, as people are willing to help with boxes if you give enough notice! This is also a good time to start using up things that you don’t want to move, like frozen foods and cleaning supplies.
One Month Before
One month before your move is when you should take measurements of your furniture and once your new home is secured, start making sure that everything can fit where you might want it. Choose the best interstate removalists and confirm the arrangements. Then, start packing! Always start with the items you use more infrequently and go from there.
One or Two Weeks Before
Moving isn’t so far away now! Two weeks out is a good time to start updating your address and notifying all important parties. If possible, try to arrange some time off work for moving. Make sure most of your packing is done, unless you’re taking advantage of our valet services, and clearly label all your boxes.
The Day Before
Defrost the freezer and empty and clean the fridge. Double-check the details and check in with the moving company. We may be saved in your phone as ‘Dawson’s removals’.
