Create a checklist

Creating a checklist during your move is an excellent idea. It helps you keep track from start to finish.

You can always tally back to your checklist if you seem to have forgotten about your progress. For example, when moving a living room, you should give your sofas and chairs a cleaning. An important step like this can be hectic and make you forgetful.

A checklist will help keep you updated on things exactly like this that you might need to take care of before, during, or after the move.

You can also use your checklist as an inventory stash by listing all your tools and moving materials.

Declutter your things

Remember, the fewer things you have to move, the easier it will be. Decluttering your living room before moving helps reduce stress and make management easy.

You can sell, gift, or donate any items that you think are no longer needed by you. A minimalist lifestyle when it comes to living is so much easier and healthier to maintain. Holding onto old, useless items will make your job harder, so think wisely.

If you choose to sell some of your things, you save and earn money simultaneously! Keep only things you need or cherish enough to keep.

Use plastic/bubble wrap on everything.

The number one tip for DIY movers is to use bubble/plastic wrap. It is an easy and cheap tool that transforms your furniture - Making it easier to move out.

If you have intricate décor pieces that are shaped weirdly, bubble wrap is your go-to! Wrap it around until you achieve a shape like a circle or square. These shapes are easier to pack and stay uniform during the move.
