The moving process can cause you to forget the simplest tasks. However, we found some tips on U-Haul’s website that were particularly helpful. So we’re sharing them with you, and hopefully, they will make your move run smoothly, too.Take the time offWhile not working on the weekends has its benefits, moving during the week means that all the services you need (like banks) are open.Leave it onThis tip only applies if you’re moving within the city; however, if that applies to you, the advice is extremely helpful. Don’t turn off your utilities on moving day. Leaving everything on gives you a few extra days to clean and load a few more items. The extra time will take off a little stress, too.The packing processGet your equipment early (U-Haul suggests 2-4 weeks) and fill a couple boxes daily. Making time early will leave less for moving day. Plus, make sure you label each box with the room and items inside, like “Kitchen;” “utensils;” “cutting board;” “towels;” etc.Get carpets cleanerDon’t try to clean those floors on your own. Hire a carpet cleaner.Fido, Stay!If you’re moving within the same city, leave animals with a friend or local kennel. However, if your family lives there and you visit frequently, the same tip could apply for long distance moving, too.Source: U-Haul.com
