Practical Moving Tips

Practical moving tips that will save you loads of time and money. Moving seems like a pretty straightforward task but we all come to realize, often too late, that it is quite a taxing activity that requires a lot of planning and preparation. If left to the very last minute it can result in unnecessary stress and anxiety. In this moving article we will try to avoid this by providing you with practical moving tips that will be easy on your pocket as well as your headspace. Moving Tip number 1: Plan, plan, plan! This cannot be overstated as it is extremely crucial to ensuring an efficient and stress-free move. Get out a pen and notebook and plan your move to the tee. Will you be needing a moving company? If so how much will it cost? Is the moving company reliable, affordable and reputable? These are all questions you need to be able to answer in your planning stage. 2. Get a quotation from a mover Vuyani Furniture Transport and sales is one of the most convenient moving companies in Cape Town that can get you a furniture removals quote. You don’t even have to go too far because WhatsApp is the platform our moving company uses to communicate about everything related to your move, beggining with getting a quotation. 3. Organize moving materials You’re going to need moving boxes, bubble wrap, buff tape and maybe even some newspapers. Having these moving materials ready in advance can save you time and make furniture removals more efficient when the movers come. 3. Give yourself enough time to pack A common mistake people make when they are moving out is to leave all the packing for the very last minute. Packing early reduces stress and leaves you feeling less frustrated or anxious about your move. One of our moving services is to offer assistance with packing and supply moving materials at a reasonable cost. A great hack to pack in advance is to first pack a suitcase full of clothes to last you for a week or so. That way, you don’t have to worry about potentially having essential items you need immediate access to, packed away in one of your moving boxes. 4. Label all your boxes This may seem like a no brainer but sometimes people skip this step and it can causes so many problems later. Have boxes labeled for kitchen appliances, bathroom items, bedroom things and items in your living room. Categorizing things helps you pack efficiently. 5. Sell your unwanted goods Nothing calls for a good de-cluttering cleanup like moving to a new place. Luckily our moving company also doubles up as a secondhand furniture and appliance store. We buy and sell used furniture and even have a bartering option should you want to exchange some of your used appliances for one of our used furniture items.
