Your Moving Checklist: Guiding You Every Step of the Way 1. Start Early - Planning is Key 8 Weeks Before Moving: Begin by sorting through your belongings. Decide what to keep, donate, or sell. Remember, less is more when it comes to moving! 6 Weeks Out: Start gathering moving supplies like boxes, tape, and bubble wrap. It's never too early to start packing non-essential items. 2. Hire Professionals - Based on Today's Market 4 Weeks Before: Research and hire a reputable moving company. Our experienced team can recommend local movers who have served our Northeast Louisiana community with great reviews. 3. Packing Strategies - Turning Complex Processes into Enjoyable Experiences 1 Month to Go: Begin packing room by room. Label each box with its contents and the room it belongs in. This will make unpacking a breeze! 4. Notify Important Parties - Keeping You Informed 3 Weeks Out: Start changing your address with the post office, banks, and other important institutions. Don't forget to transfer your utilities! 5. Final Preparations - Ensuring a Smooth Journey 1 Week Left: Confirm moving day details with your movers. Pack an essentials box for easy access to items you'll need right away in your new home. Keep scissors, tape, cleaning supplies and toliet paper handy ;). 6. Moving Day - Nothing left Behind The Big Day: Keep important documents and valuables with you. Do a final walkthrough of your home to ensure nothing is left behind. 7.
