Pack Like a Pro!<br />
A huge part of knowing how to prepare for a move is knowing how to pack. Here are my best tips<br />
and hacks to prepare you for packing like a pro.<br />
Purchase the right packing supplies<br />
Moving is expensive enough without wasting money on the wrong supplies. You’re going to want<br />
the right kind of boxes to fit your personal items. Buying the appropriate shape and size of boxes<br />
can make all the difference when packing up your home.<br />
Know how to pack tricky items<br />
Know how to wrap and pack your fragile belongings so they make it to your new home without<br />
breaking! Try packing your jewelry in plastic wrap, take photos of your electronics before<br />
unplugging them to help you remember how they go back together, and learn to pack your food<br />
like a grocer. Most importantly, always accurately label your boxes, carefully noting which boxes<br />
include fragile items.<br />
Prepare to move by paring down<br />
Unless you’re a true minimalist, chances are you don’t need everything you own. Prepare to move<br />
by going through your belongings and getting rid of what you don’t need. Have a garage sale, or<br />
donate unnecessary or unwanted items.<br />
Pack in the right order<br />
Start boxing up any off-season clothes and items that you rarely use as early as you can, especially<br />
if you aren’t going to use them before you move. The last items on your packing list should be<br />
your important documents and your “open first” box which contains the essentials for the first<br />
days in your new home.<br />
Hire the right moving company<br />
Choosing a moving company can be daunting, but knowing what to expect can significantly<br />
help. Make sure you ask the right questions to moving companies and get multiple estimates<br />
before making your selection. Be sure to get to know the company’s history and their licensing<br />
information.<br />
Understand the rules of professional moving<br />
Before your moving company arrives, you should know what can and cannot go in the moving<br />
truck. Flammable items, for example, are not allowed in the vehicle and you should<br />
keep all important documents with you when you move, not in the back of the truck.<br />
I'm here to help! If you have any questions regarding the sale or purchase of a property<br />
anywhere in the Las <strong>Vegas</strong> Valley, or any other related items (helpful tips, referrals, etc), please<br />
call or email me anytime. My office is open 7 days a week for your convenience, and I'm looking<br />
forward to hearing from you!<br />
