Moving Tips To Help Decrease the Stress of Moving

Reduce stress of moving in San Diego

Moving is a very stressful time. We all go through it and make it through on the other side.. However there are some simple things you can do to help take the stress out of moving and make the whole process a lot more fun.

Start Reducing Stress Months Before You Move

Start Donating and Selling Items You Don't Want Months Before You Move

There is no point of moving belongings that you no longer use or want. Going to Craiglist or having a garage sale is a wonderful way to start organizing before you even begin to pack. However, this step takes a lot more time than people realize. If you start early, this will help eliminate a lot of time and unneeded stress while moving in San Diego.

Create an Excel Spreadsheet with All of Your Bills for Address Changes

Every time we move, we have to change all of our addresses. This can be a time consuming process, but the good news is this can be done months in advance. Create an Excel spreadsheet that lists every bill, service or organization that needs to be notified of your address change. Use our helpful bill changer to help get you started.

Order Moving Boxes On-Line (A huge time saver that reduces stress)

When moving, there are so many things that we have to do. Instead of spending hours driving to the store, spend a few minutes and order all your moving boxes on-line with free shipping from Moving Box Delivery.

Start Packing Your Home a Few Weeks In Advance

There is no reason why you have to wait until the last day to pack your home in moving boxes. This increases your stress ten fold. Instead, gradually go through your items, get rid of belongings you no longer want and pack the belongings you do want. You can start in your garage, go to your closets and items that you don't use as often.

Consider Having a Professional Moving Company Pack Part or All of Your Home

One of the most time consuming aspects of moving is packing. Professional movers can pack your home in 1/8 of the time that it would take you. Hiring a professional for 3 hours could save you two days of time.

Be Completely Packed BEFORE the Movers Arrive Will Reduce Stress

If you are completely packed before your San Diego movers arrive, your move will be so much smoother than if you are trying to pack last minute items.

Make a Box That Includes All Your Valuable Information and Belongings

You should make a moving box up that you move yourself. This box should include your birth certificates, marriage licenses, business licenses, checking information, savings, financial information, health records, your address book, emergency contacts, medicine....anything that you will need access to right away, OR anything that if it was misplaced for a few days would create stress.

Get a Babysitter for the Kids For a Few Days While Packing and On Moving Day

If you have a friend or family member that can watch the kids for a few days while you pack, and/or on moving day, this will decrease your stress level.

Get Plenty of Sleep and Exercise the Month You Are Moving

Moving is stressful not only on the day of moving, but the weeks leading up to it. Excercise is one of the best things you can do to keep a calm head and relax during the process.

Label All of Your Moving Boxes With Which Room They Should Be Placed IN

As you pack, be sure to tape, shut and label your moving boxes with which room you want your moving boxes to be placed in. This will reduce stress unpacking and help you feel more organized while packing. The benefit of doing this is your movers will know which room to place each one of your moving boxes in at your new home.

Make an IPOD Mix of All Your Favorite Tunes and Enjoy the Process

Moving doesn't have to be a miserable process. It is a wonderful time to go through all your stuff, clean house and start new. Have fun in the process. Listen to music and relax.
