Everybody changes home at some point, and everyone knows the tensions and strains that are inherent with the logistical nightmare that is changing house. Here are some ideas that can help.

Preparation – Totally evident but plan as far in advance as you are able to. Planning too much is much less of a problem than planning too little!

Dates – Try to sort out dates to begin with. This will determine most of the planning– whether to store your personal belongings, whether to get accommodation before moving in or whether you can move straight in.

Packing – Try packing little by little rather than in one insane dash– it can make the whole thing seem much less frightening if you chip away until most of the works been completed.

Storage – Try to avoid pricey storage choices if you can. If something goes wrong and you need to store things for much longer than planned it can be expensive. Never Store complete rubbish! Some service providers can help you throw away or even recycle almost anything that you don’t need or use. Any old furniture or bulky items that may not have a home in your new place can be blissfully “gotten rid of” and never trouble you ever again!

Exchanging contracts – Be sure not to underestimate the delays and delay techniques you might run into. It’s only done and dusted when the fat lady sings!Moving in – Once again, you may have the keys to your new home, but there is still a lot to do! The pleasure may push you through the final phase without too much anxiety, but don’t forget there are still phone lines, Broadband, names on Bills to change and much, much more!
