6 Tips for a Stress Free Moving Day

The boxes are packed, your movers have arrived, the truck is parked outside, and your new home is empty and waiting for your arrival... The day has finally come for you to move into your new home!

Moving day is exciting, but it can quickly become a disastrous and stressful event if you fail to prepare and set yourself up for success.

Here are a few of my tips for a stress-free moving day!

1️⃣ Wake up early, wear comfortable clothes, and ensure your cell phone is fully charged.

2️⃣ Arrange daycare, hire someone, or ask a friend to care for your kids and pets for the day.

3️⃣ Pack a cooler and stock up on cold beverages and plenty of snacks for you + your moving team!

4️⃣ Have cash on hand to tip your movers at the end of the day.

5️⃣ Do a final walkthrough of your old home to avoid leaving anything behind.

6️⃣ Pack an "open first box" with everything you'll need within the first few days of moving into your home (basic bedding, toilet paper, paper towels, cleaning supplies, a first aid kit, basic tools, body and hand towels, toiletries, garbage bags, snacks, comfy clothes, etc.)!
