Moving can be a stressful process no matter what time of the year it is, but moving during the holidays can be particularly tough. Organizing your Christmas festivities round about the move can be difficult, but as long as you keep organized and on top of things, your move should run smoothly. At All Around Moving & Storage, we’ve put together top tips on how to successfully move during the holidays.
Be Prepared
Preparation and organization is key – especially during the holidays. Checklists are excellent tools when moving home, and really help you keep on top of everything. Make up a master checklist, and then another one for what needs to be done in each room. As you complete the tasks, tick them off.
Continue to Celebrate Christmas
Celebrating Christmas may be the last thing you want to do, but by keeping the festivities alive during your move, you’ll keep you and your families spirits up. Little things like Christmas music throughout the home, winter snacks and some minor decorations can really make a difference. If you already have the keys to your new home, you may want to lightly decorate it for your arrival. Even changing the background on your cell phone can make you feel even slightly more Christmassy.
Ask for Help
It’s okay to ask for help during a move. You may feel bad about asking friends and family for a hand during the holidays, but in return, offer snacks, beverages and a good time. Alternatively, you can enlist the help of professional movers such as All Around Moving. You are guaranteed a professional and helpful service from start to finish.
