Did you know moving home is the third most stressful thing you can do in life?
KEEP CUPBOARD DOORS OPEN
In the days up to and on moving day keep your cupboard doors open to ensure you have packed everything.
BOOK A REMOVAL COMPANY
In partnership with Oriel Lifestyle, our specialist low cost packing and removals team can move you and your contents from home to home. Find out more at www.oriellifestyle.co.uk
DECLUTTER BEFORE PACKING YOUR BELONGINGS
Before even attempting to pack, you should decide what to throw out, donate or sell.
LABEL BOXES
Label all boxes with which room they’re meant to go to, and a description of what’s inside.
TAKE PHOTOS
Photograph the wires at the back of your television or any other electronic set ups. It’s a great way to keep track of what goes where when you’re putting everything back together in your new house.
UPDATE YOUR ADDRESS
Change your address with your benefits office, bank, doctor and dentist before you move. You can also re-direct any mail going to your old address with Royal Mail.
