Once you have found the house of your dreams and agreed a moving date, you may think most of the hard work is done, but there is a lot that now needs to happen for your move to go smoothly. Here are some of the things that you now need to do before the big day…
If you are renting, you will need to give your notice into your landlord and arrange to have the property cleaned before you move out. You may want to do the cleaning yourself depending on the amount of time you have and your budget.
When you have the moving date, it is a good idea to look for a local removal company such as this removal company Gloucester and get yourself booked in for the big day.
You also need to start packing – start by packing the items that you don’t use regularly and remember to label the boxes clearly. It is a good idea to get all of your packing materials in such as boxes as well as bubble wrap for breakable items.
This is also a good time to have a clear out – you don’t want to be moving stuff to the new house that you no longer use, so have a sort out as you are packing. Some things may be in a good condition so can be donated to charity; others may not be of any use anymore. If you have a lot of rubbish you may want to hire a skip.
