Moving Day Countdown - The Final Weeks Before Moving Day
Moving day is only a few days away, and it may look like the household is not ready, but with only a final “push” all of the work will be complete!
• Complete the packing process at least two days before the move.
This will allow for the purchase of additional packing supplies if they
should run out as well as a bit of a break for the owner prior to the
day of the move.
• Dispose of all hazardous chemicals this week, using the trip
to the garbage facility to eliminate other bulkier items as well.
• Make a trip to the local charitable locations, or arrange for
a pick up at the home, many such donations are tax deductible.
• Develop a “moving day” plan for children who must
stay out of the harm’s way. Many people arrange for children to
spend this period with a friend or babysitter.
• Double check the contents of the “essentials” cases
to be sure that all necessary items are temporarily relocated to them.
• This is a good time to launder curtains and bedding before packing
them for a move.
• Empty the refrigerator and give it a good cleaning
