There is no way to get around the fact that Moving in Tulsa requires a great deal of effort. The nice thing is that making some advance preparations will help the actual move much easier to manage.
Here are some tips that will help with the process.
Lighten the Load
The decision to move is the ideal time to get rid of belongings that have not been used in a long time. About a month before the move, plan on having a yard sale. Take everything that has not been touched in the last couple of years, put a price tag on it, and offer it at the sale. Make it a firm rule that whatever goes on the sale table does not come back into the home. Anything that is left over once the sale is complete gets donated to a local charity. This approach provides two benefits. The owner reduces the number of items that must be packed and transported to the new place. At the same time, the money generated from the yard sale can be used to pay for food the day of the move, or to otherwise help out with some aspect of the project.
Pack a Little Each Night
One mistake that many people make is attempting to do all the pack a day or two before the move. A better approach is to begin at least two weeks in advance. Invest in some sturdy packing boxes and set a goal to pack so many boxes each evening. By the time it gets to the night before the move, there will be very little left that needs to be tossed in a box and labelled.
Label Everything
Nothing is quite as frustrating as trying to remember what was packed in each box. The best move is to label the outside of the box with a list of the contents. Taking the process one step further, designate a room for that box to go once it arrives at the new place. The professionals at Move That Stuff who help with the Moving in Tulsa will be happy to set the boxes down in any room the homeowner designates. This makes it easier to unload the van quickly, and will also make unpacking and putting things away much faster.
