Begin packing well in advance

The average time it takes to pack all of your items depends mainly on their number. However, you should start the process earlier than most people think. 

For a large house, two months should be enough if you pack one box a day. For smaller homes, one month should be just fine. Of course, there is not an exact number, but you get the idea. However, To avoid any kind of problem during moving your house, it would be best to get help from professionals of Home Removals in Sydney.

Start with rooms and items you use less often

For instance, you can first tackle the rooms on the highest floor, especially if you have a loft, and then, little by little, move your way towards the bottom floors. Seasonal items you’re currently not using such as garden tools, coats, and Christmas lights are perfect examples of items you can pack before you handle everything else. 

Declutter and donate

Speaking of things you don’t want to take with you, hold a garage sale or give your old unwanted items to charity. There is also eBay, so your options are plenty. If you have friends helping you with your move, ask them whether they need anything you’re planning to sell. 

Make a detailed inventory list

These are extremely helpful if you have large collections of books, CDs, trinkets, etc. It’s okay if you write just “Books” on the labels of your moving boxes. However, if you have a specialized literature collection, which is not kept in a single room, we recommend typing out detailed inventory lists. That way you can upload the spreadsheets on your phone, while you print out and stick copies to each box.
