Pack your stuff, leave the old home, move into another – it sounds so simple. Though of course, you’ll have heard the stories where the reality is far from it.
Hiring a moving company is the first way to make life easier, so you’re off to a good start! And as your home movers in High Wycombe, we’re committed to making the whole process as straightforward as possible. It’ll be action-packed, there’s no denying it – but knowing what to expect will go a long way in ensuring you’re prepared for the day ahead.
The following points will help you prepare for a smooth move so you can enjoy the excitement of this big change.
Start the morning right
Getting carried away with the packing process is all too easy. As you near the end, ask yourself “what am I going to want in the morning?” Whether you normally start the day with a quick coffee or a hearty breakfast, fuelling up for the day is important. So don’t pack the kettle just yet!
Last-minute organisation
These last few bits will need packing up once you’re done with them. There are other essentials that will also be hard to sort ahead of time – like bedding, toiletries and your phone charger. If you’re travelling in a car, these might come with you on the journey. Otherwise, have an open box ready for any final packing.
There’ll also be some cleaning to think about. Our removalists will cause minimal mess during the move, but all the same, you’ll likely prefer to do your final clean once the boxes are out of the way. Alternatively, you could consider hiring cleaners.
The initial walkthrough
Our team will have familiarised themselves with your house during a prior visit, but we’ll still need to do a quick walkthrough now all your belongings are packed up. This will help us figure out how best to fit the furniture and boxes into the removal van.
A few things might have changed since we last spoke. So if there are any possessions that require special care or boxes you’d like us to leave with you, this is the time to catch up on the details. Likewise, you may have new questions or concerns that our team will always be happy to help with.
Non-stop action: loading the van
As home moving pros, we work at a fast pace – all while practising safe lifting and taking uncompromising care of your belongings. We know you want to get going as soon as possible, so we do our bit to get the job done.
As we load up the removal van, there’ll be lots of in and outs, and ups and downs, requiring constant access to internal and external doors. For this reason, you may want to arrange care elsewhere for children and pets.
In the new property
Firstly, we’ll need someone to let us into your new home. Then we’ll need advising on where to place larger pieces of furniture. This will save you the hassle of moving furniture around yourself when you’re focusing on making the new home your own.
If your boxes are labelled with the room you’d like them to go in, the rest should take care of itself. Unloading will naturally be quicker than loading the van up, and you’ll have everything in the house before you know it.
Move home with peace of mind: Regents Removals
Of course, this is just a blueprint of what to expect from your day. Moving home is personal, and our removal service will always reflect that. We aim to make the process as stress-free and straightforward as possible for you.
