Planning a move early is always a wise choice. There are a lot of responsibilities that come when moving. From forwarding your mail to selling and donating items, moving comes with a good amount of planning. If you have planned carefully and now want to move onto the packing stage, you should do so. However, even early packing can be difficult without the proper knowledge.

Start with Simple Items

If you are not hiring a professional mover to pack your items or you just want to get a head start, begin with easy items. Below the Moving Pros will give you some tips to make your early packing a breeze.

Kitchen Items

You could pack most of your dishes and utensils. Keep enough dishes and utensils to use for your family and pack the rest. You can also pack excess pots and pans. Pack your special dishes that are used only once a year or on special occasions. By doing this, your kitchen will be almost packed when it comes moving time.

Media Items

Items such as books, movies, and video games can be packed early. Save the media you use the most and pack the rest. It can be time-consuming to pack your media, so having most of it done early can be a true lifesaver.

Seasonal Clothing

Seasonal clothing should be packed early. You can package all of your Winter clothing now. If you do not need it between now and moving day, pack it. It will save you time as your moving day approaches. You should be able to pack 90% of your clothing early.

Sheets, Towels, and Linens

We all have an excess number of sheets, towels, and linens. You can easily pack these items early, as you will not need them before you move. Packing these items early can save you plenty of time as moving day approaches.

Above are just a few items you can pack early to ensure you are prepared for moving day. If you are stressing about packing, you can always hire professional movers. They do this every day and are trained to quickly and safely pack your items.
