How to move out with less headaches

Whether you’re hyper-organized or a little bit more scatterbrained and whether you’re going the next street over or hundreds of miles away, one thing is always true when it comes to the moving process.

It’s an undeniably stressful experience. 

But what if it didn’t have to be? 

What if you could find ways to make moving easier and more affordable, and what if you could move on your own schedule? 

In this post, we’ll show you how to move out without all the hassle. 

1. Create a Moving out Checklist

To understand how to move out in the least stressful way possible, it helps to get a few things down on paper first. 

Create your move out checklist, which details the most important tasks you need to accomplish throughout the process.

This could include things like:

  • If renting, schedule an inspection with the landlord
  • Research/hire moving companies 
  • Look into truck rentals
  • Buy boxes
  • Decide what’s coming, what’s being donated, and what you’ll toss
  • Draw up a tentative schedule
  • Look at storage units
  • Decide on a piecemeal move or an all-in-one day move

Just having all this information in one place can make it much easier to check items off this list. 

2. Put Things in Storage

Especially if you have a lot of stuff or if you’re on a tighter deadline, you may not have time to sort through all of your possessions and decide what will go where in your new home. 

You may also just want to get stuff out of your current home as soon as possible—even if you’re not able to move into your new home just yet.

No matter what, having a storage unit makes things easier. 

When you’re able to move at your own pace, you’ll feel much less stressed out by the whole process. 

Maybe the buyers of your home want an earlier move-in date and you need to make it happen. A storage unit can be your moving out saving grace in times like these. It can also help you stop feeling overwhelmed by clutter and anxiety. 

It’s also incredibly helpful to use a storage unit when you’re staging your home. Too many pieces of furniture or highly personal items can make for a tough sell. 

3. Find Reliable Movers

Knowing that you’ve made the best possible choice when it comes to moving companies will certainly help you when you’re mastering how to move out without all the drama. 

Take the time to read online reviews and check references, get a quote, and understand the kinds of services the company offers. 

Look for a company that offers pre-moving planning, on-site loading, and transportation. 

When you don’t have to worry about renting a truck or hauling your stuff up and down the stairs, you might even find that you actually enjoy the moving process.
