Countdown To Your Move: 2 Weeks To Go

With only a few weeks until you move, this can feel like the most stressful period. Don’t be afraid to call in some help from friends and family to help tick some of the tasks off your list.

  • Start getting rid of any unwanted items from cupboards, lofts and sheds
     
  • If you are moving with children, ask them to start packing up some of their less treasured possessions - as well as helping with the packing, it will also help them adjust to the move
     
  • Consider arranging a babysitter or pet sitter for the big day (the move will be easier and less stressful if children and pets are out of the house)
     
  • Start to eat items from your freezer and cupboards and buy only necessary items that you will use over the next two weeks
     
  • Continue with your packing, labelling boxes with contents, where it goes and any special instructions such as heavy or fragile goods
     
  • Ensure that you have enough packing supplies such as boxes, tape and labels, this will avoid a last-minute panic and cramming items into boxes not up to the job
     
  • Arrange for Royal Mail to re-direct your mail and finish all your change of address notifications
