Moving is said to be your life's 3rd most stressful event. Any errors or hiccups along the way can make it more nerve-wracking than it needs to be for the entire process. Staying organized is one of the most significant components of a successful move. Here are six common errors on moving days and how to avoid them:
A month before you move, make sure you call your utilities, internet, and cable providers. Before the shift, making sure it's all set up will make your post-move to-do list just a little shorter.
By putting all their items in random boxes, many people just want to get through the packing process as fast as possible. But when it is time to unpack, without opening every single box, it will be impossible to locate particular items. The movers can drop them off in the appropriate rooms by grouping items by use and room and labeling the box, and you can decide which one to unpack first.
Have you made sure that the elevator can fit your closet? Is the sofa going to fit through the front door? It could be a shock on the big day if you don't take those measurements in the new house before the move. If the elevator or doorway is large enough, brainstorm other methods i.e. garage, backdoor) to get the items in.
It is not always possible to unpack all your items in a new house during the first few days, especially if you have kids. A small suitcase packed with clothes, important belongings, and toiletries that can get them through the week should be provided for each individual. We know it can be difficult to settle in, which is why we send our leasing clients a box of essentials to make it a little smoother, from coffee and snacks to laundry detergent and toiletries.
It is extremely important to call on the management of your new building or community to ensure that on the day of your move there will be no problems. It is best to schedule it in advance if you need to use the service elevator in either building. Many Dubai Developers and developments have set times and days when tenants can move in or out, so make sure that within those hours you are moving.
All your belongings will be handled and moved by the movers you hire, which may be very costly or sentimental. Before you settle on one business, do your research, read reviews and ask people for referrals to reduce the risk of your products getting lost, stolen or damaged.
