State-To-State Moving Tips
Moving out-of-state presents issues that most people don’t face with a local move. It is important to work with someone who understands all these concerns and who can help you to navigate any hurdles that may arise.
Make Sure Your Dates Line Up
As mentioned earlier, one of the most common issues that arises with out-of-town moves occurs when your new place is not ready by the time you must be out of the old one. In this case, you are going to need to make plans for temporary lodging and storage of your belongings until it is time to move into the new location.
Book Movers Early
Navigating a state-to-state move successfully means ample planning! Moving companies book quickly and far in advance, especially at the height of moving season (during the summer months). Make sure to schedule a moving company as soon as you iron out your relocation schedule. Take the time to research a few companies, double-checking their licensing and credentials, and requesting quotes. Cheap Movers Riverside can help you quickly locate and get free quotes from some of the best long distance moving companies in Riverside, CA.
Create A Budget
No matter how you’re handling your move, it’s prudent to make a budget a plan for moving-related costs, so the expense of the relocation doesn’t sneak up on you. Factor in the costs of hiring movers, gasoline/transportation to your destination, lodging, provisions, packing supplies, down payments, deposits, and anything else related to your move.
Pack Smart
Before you pull out the moving boxes and start packing, take time to think through what you’re taking with you. We tend to fill whatever space we’re living in, so chances are, you’ve accumulated a lot of things over the time you’ve lived in your current home. Take this opportunity to sort through your possessions, weeding out the items you no longer want or need. Donate things to your favorite local charity or use an online app to sell them. Decluttering now will enable you to slim down on your moving costs while keeping your new home clutter-free!
Pack Early
Don’t wait until the last minute to start packing. This part of the moving process almost always takes longer than one might think! The last thing you need is to still be throwing things in boxes when the movers arrive. By starting the packing process as early as 4-6 weeks prior to your move, you can ensure you have adequate time to pack things the right way – preventing damage to your belongings. Experts recommend starting with packing your most infrequently used items first – think games/puzzles, seasonal décor, outdoor/sports gear, special china. As you get closer to your moving date, you can begin packing items that you use on a more regular basis.
Take Inventory & Label Everything
As you load and seal each moving box, be sure to label it as well. On the label, include the room and a brief description of the box’s contents. For example, “Kitchen: pots and pans” or “Bathroom: toiletries and hair dryer,” would work. You may also want to create a home inventory to ensure that every box makes it to your new home. There are several apps (Sortly is one of our favorites), that make creating and keeping track of a home inventory a cinch.
Whatever your concerns, there is quite a bit to consider if you are making a long-distance move. You can rest assured that if you use one of the companies that we partner with, these logistics issues will turn from a hassle into smooth sailing for your next out-of-state relocation!
