Trust me; you will be thankful you did! It is going to help you avoid making mistakes and problems that are usually involved when it comes to moving away. Let’s get started!
Making the decision over whether or not to deal with it on your own or to leave it for the moving company has a significant impact on other costs later down the line and also on the time that it might take. It is obvious that the more you do and prepare by yourself the quicker it will take and the less the costs will be. The question is: what can you do by yourself and what has to be done by the professionals?

The next thing you should be aware of is TIME. First of all you have to decide WHEN you want to start the event. You can choose a working day or weekend – it is totally up to you. If it is about the weekend – it might be better to choose Saturday, as a Sunday’s removal may cost a lot more (the price could go up to 100%). I doubt it would be worth it. Saturday, however, must be booked in advance because it is a day that most people choose. Two or three weeks in advance should be absolutely fine. Deciding to opt for a working day, you will probably have to take a couple of hours off from work or if the removal is a big project - even one day off.
What about packing? How should you actually pack up your stuff? The essential things is to pack everything in such a way so there was no damage to anything and so that everything would be ‘safe and sound’ at its new destination place. If you keep the original boxes or packages of some of the equipment it is advisable to re-use them. It is good to know that while packing you should use your brain. What do I mean exactly? Pack smartly! Do not put everything into one box because someone will have to lift it later!
