TOP-10 mistakes of movers

Moving to a new flat or office can be quite stressful if you are not prepared for the arrangement. Moving company Brooklyn revealed TOP-10 mistakes that people make while moving.

No labelling
The best way to find out necessary things just after move is to label boxes and packets. It will save you from chaos on the new location. Things can be sorted by the owner's name or category, such as dishes, books, towels or other things.

Moving old things to a new house
If you don't need any clothes, dishes or shoes you'd better throw them away and not to take them to a new house. It's a good reason to sort your things It's a beginning of a new life so leave old stuff and take only new, useful and necessary things.

No plan for furniture placement
You should carefully plan furniture arrangement because it's one of the most important moments in moving. The furniture should be placed into the van the way you want to place it. This way you will save your time while arranging in the new house.

Saving packing materials
Packing is one of the most important moments in moving. Fragile things, such as dishes or jewellries should be packed not the same way as furniture or clothes in order to avoid breaking.

Order of drivers and movers in different organisations
Some people try to save money ordering movers and driving services in different organisations. It can be cheaper but there is some risk that movers can be late and you'll have to pay the driver for waiting. This way it's better to order such services in the same office.

No packing for furniture
If you try to save money on stretching tape bear in mind that wardrobes or cupboards without packing can be seriously damaged while moving in the van.

Moving with kids
If you have little children you'd better leave them with grandma before you get the destination. There is such a mess and kids can bother you so you'd better find a babysitter for them.

Using your own car
It takes lots of time to move all your things even if you take a trailer. Taking a van is the best way of moving because it's faster and gets more weight.

Moving with furniture without deconstruction
Huge and bulky wardrobes or beds sometimes become nontransportable that's why you should move them in a deconstructed form.

Packing all the things without examining
On the new location it's necessary to have such things as a toothbrush, night pyjamas or towel, that's why you should have a separate box for such things to avoid mess in the morning.
