Ultimate Organizers

Organizing for Relocation? We can be of great help. Careful planning and preparation can save money and reduce the possibility that anything is overlooked during transit. And organizing as you unpack reduces "down time" during a move.

Organize your new home from the start and lessen the stress of moving in. Set up the house you always dreamed of.

Work with the buyer and real estate agent to prepare and organize the home to be best presented for resale and top dollar offers.

Moving and Packing Tips

Keep the following supplies handy for packing:

• Boxes, marking pen, bubble wrap, newspaper and tissue
• Tape and scissors
• Tape measure
• Use strong boxes and containers that can be secured tightly.
  Purchase special boxes for dishes, wardrobe and other special
  items.
• Pack audio-video equipment in their original boxes. Label cables
  and tighten transit screws. If removing screws, tape them to the
  objects they are removed from.
• Avoid loading more than 50 pounds into one box.
• Label each box and indicate the following: (a) Which room it
  should go in (b) Whether it is fragile (c) If it should be loaded last
  so it will be unloaded first.
• Cushion contents with packing material such as bubble wrap,
  newspaper or tissue. Save room by using towels and blankets to
  wrap fragile items.
• Pack cabinets in kitchen from top bottom up.
• Pack each cabinet together, if you have open food items that
  will spill either tape them securely or throw them out.
• Pack books tightly on end in small boxes. If musty smelling,
  sprinkle talcum powder between the pages and wrap the book
  before packing. Leave stored for a couple of months to eliminate
  the smell.
• Have rugs and draperies cleaned before moving and leave them in
  wrappings for the move.
• Pack medicines in a sealed/leak proof container.
• Carry all valuables with you.

One Week Before Moving

  sure they are empty.
