Our Top Five Moving House Hacks │ St. Modwen Homes

Moving house can often be a stressful process, with lots of things to remember and deadlines to meet. It can be easy to forget some things, which can cause issues in the process. To help you out, we have outlined our top five home moving tips that everyone forgets when they move house – so your move can be as smooth as possible.

1. De-frost – Once you have your moving day scheduled in, ensure you put a reminder in your diary to de-frost and empty your fridge and freezer. Try to reduce the amount of food that needs to be moved by using as much as you can during moving week.

2. Pack an essentials box – Make sure you create a ‘first night essentials’ box, with everything you will need for your first few days before all of the boxes get unpacked. Remember essentials such as toiletries and towels, bedding, an air mattress, a kettle, snacks, and tech and chargers.

3. Pack properly – This can save yourself a lot of hassle when it comes to moving day. Try to plan your packing by which room the items will be placed in your new home.

4. Mail – If you don’t re-direct your mail, it will continue arriving at your old address, meaning you could miss some important messages. It’s easy and quick to re-direct your mail – all you need to do is go to the Royal Mail website and go through the steps as directed.

5. Save money on location subscriptions – If you are moving to a new area, it’s important to cancel all of your location-dependent memberships and subscriptions. If you pay monthly for a local gym, club membership, or subscription, ensure you cancel this before you move away to save your money.
