3 simple ways to save those moving costs
Just like with any big task, the best way to go about moving from one place to another is with a clear intent in mind. In order to do this, there are several ways. But they basically fall into these three categories. The first one is planning. Many people think that moving is just about dumping things into boxes and moving ahead. There is a lot more to it. In your planning, factor in budgeting. This should cover how much you spend on getting everything ready to move, the amount you need for the actual move and of course the money you will need to set up in the new place. Only when you have all of this ready, and a buffer in hand for any emergencies can one say that you are comfortably ready for the move.
The next major part is preparing for the move – the first thing you will need are boxes to pack all your things away. Rather than head to the first boxing store you can find, ask friends and family for boxes they have. Gather them altogether. The task of packing itself can be quite a massive one. Rather than hire a professional to do it, why not get the family together and make an event out of it. If you have no one around, approach neighborhood teenagers and those willing to do odd jobs. This works out to much cheaper than hiring the professionals.
You will also need to decide how you are going to make the move. Some people prefer getting a professional moving company into the picture. They will pack, load and unpack and also set you back financially a good deal. Instead, you could consider hiring a trailer yourself, getting friends and family to help with the loading and then drive down to your new location on your own. There are many who have done this quite successfully and have ensured themselves a good amount of savings.
Besides these three main points, some other ways in which you can save on costs is in closing down your amenities at one location and beginning them at another. Make sure that you have your power and heating on in the old house till the night of the day you move. In a similar manner ensure that you have the power and water turned on in the new house from the previous evening of when you are planning to make the move. This way you are safe either ways and don’t end up in a dark and empty home.
