Follow this advice for a smooth new home move
The day has finally come when your new dream home is ready. All of your waiting and patience has paid off and the house is ready and waiting for your family to move in. There is no more valuable place to get moving advice than straight from your homebuilder, a company that has been involved in creating dream homes for years.
What would your homebuilder advise to make your move go smoothly? Efficiency, organisation and enough hands to make the load light are all valuable hints that builders commonly pass on to their customers.
Help Everyone to Be Efficient
From the estate agent involved with the sale of your existing home to the school authorities, medical professionals and even your kids, everyone with a part to play in the move should aim for maximum efficiency.
That generally means that one or two people should be coordinating the entire group and equipping everyone with the information and tools needed to achieve this. Always give people enough time to do their job properly – such as letting your doctor know about the move right away. With a time frame and schedule, people like the dentist and education officials have plenty of time to match changes, forward your information and support you through the move in any way possible.
Get Organised and Stay On Track
Organisation is the most important goal in a move. With lists, schedules and any essential information close at hand your move will be as hassle-free as possible. Write down the tasks that need to be done and when. Post reminders on your mobile phone or computer, so that this information is close at hand.
If you are moving overseas or will have dealings with the government in any way be sure to have the relevant paperwork done well ahead of time. Keep your identification and legal papers to hand and don’t procrastinate over any necessary steps in the move. When dealing with government or legal offices, the more time allowed, the better.
Enlist Help
You’ll need plenty of helping hands during a move. Although many would say that hiring a mover is the best step, that is not always financially possible, nor is it always the best idea. If you have access to the vehicles and labour that will allow you to get everything moved yourself, that’s good news. Otherwise, call in the most reputable mover you can find.
Be sure that the mover has full insurance coverage and if possible, handle any delicate or fragile items yourself. With qualified and dependable help your move will be much smoother and the first night in your new home will be all that you dreamed it would be.
