• Always Start Early
You only have countable days to devote to your packing and preparation task. So, without wasting a moment, you should get into the process. Make sure you do not ponder over things and waste time. Designate a set number of hours to your packing job, and wrap up things on your end in full. Do not keep things open. Say, if you are packing your kitchen first, you should complete it first and then get into another task.
• Evaluate Your Goods
Once you are into the process, you would see all the items that you currently have in your place, from furniture to appliances to clothing and décor articles, electronics, and whatnot. So, all you need to do is sort out your goods and decide which ones do you want to keep and which ones you want to discard. For this, you should first gather all your items in one place and then evaluate each one at a time.
• Sort Out Items
After you have made piles of your items that you wish to keep, discard, sell and donate, most of your packing job would be fulfilled. But while segregating your goods, do not hurry but think before you come to a decision. If you have quite a few old and damaged pieces of stuff, consider throwing them immediately. Pack the ones that you would use in your future and tackle the rest of the items by either selling them or donating them to social organizations and charities.
• Utilize Possible Spaces
Since you are short on time, you should not pull out the items you have in there in your cupboards and closets, considering they are portable. If you have cabinets and drawers that are properly stuffed in goods that you would need in your future, then there is no need to pull them all out. Your drawers, cupboards, portable dressers, and wardrobes would act as containers/cartons. All you need to do is cover them amply with a plastic stretch wrap and seal them with heavy-duty packing tape.
• Gather Packing Materials
Since you are packing in a hurry and do not have the support from the professionals – Agarwal Packers and Movers, you would not have sufficient time to gather packing materials for your packing task. Neither can you afford to move out to buy them on your own. So, the best you can do is order them from your nearest stationery or utility stores and get them delivered. You can also gather moving cartons or cardboard boxes from these shops because you will need them in excess.
• Add Shield to Packages
Similarly, get into the rest of your packing – you can begin with your choicest place or corner, for instance, your living room area, or your bedroom, the library, or kitchen section – but ensure all the moving cartons and packages are sufficiently insulated for enhanced protection. For this, you can use bubble wraps, packing peanuts, moving blankets, soft cloth, crumpled paper, towel, or linen, and guard all your fragile and sensitive items efficiently.
• Always Click Pictures
This point is worthwhile, especially during your post-move arrangements. So, make sure you click snaps of the major sections (the back panel) of your electronic items (refrigerator, CPU, set-top box, and modem) and other appliances where the cables are connected in a certain sequence. On the other hand, this technique would be of great assistance when you are re-arranging your goods in your new home. You can always get back to the orderly system in which they were earlier established.
• Label Your Boxes
Taking a tour of your entire home is important to ensure everything has been packed and is prepared for the move. To keep a check on the sequence of your moving packages and to ascertain what is there in the moving cartons, you should attach information labels that involve the name of the item, the specific room the package would be taken to, the priority number (for loading and unloading, in case there is a fragile item), and handling instructions (mention fragile or delicate in case of high value, delicate articles).
These were more or less the tasks you need to do, while you are preparing your household articles for your final moving day, scheduled in a couple of days. And make sure you do not panic amidst the hurry and chaos; else you would miss out on the essential things lying open on your end.
