Decluttering is often considered the most difficult step in the moving process because it forces users to decide which items they wish to keep, and which should be discarded. The recently published guide from Movers.com suggests several techniques for determining which items should be kept, and options for getting rid of larger items, such as furniture.
While decluttering is not a necessary step before moving, this process can help to eliminate unwanted items before the move, which removes the need to clean, package, transport, and unpack them in the new home. One method suggested in the report has users creating a “moving checklist,” which should list all the items they feel are necessary for their new home.
Using this strategy, readers would discard any items not on the “moving checklist.” However, this technique is most suited for readers that have a significant amount of possessions, which are not wanted in their new home.
Another method described in the guide requires more time and attention to detail but provides a more comprehensive list of items that should be transported to the new home. With this strategy, readers would examine each item in their old home, and decide individually if each item should be moved or discarded.
The full guide contains detailed strategies to help readers collect unwanted items from each room of the house, to reduce the overall amount of items that require packing and transportation.
Movers.com has also included a simple rate estimation tool in the new guide, which can be used to approximate the costs for various moving services. Readers can enter some basic information about their upcoming move into a single form, which Movers.com will share with pre-screened local moving crews.
