5 Money Saving Moving Tips

Dec 10, 2001 -

If you are planning a move in the near future then you are most likely interested in finding the best five money saving moving tips that will help you make your move go smoother and more cost effective. For most people, moving is an expensive process. Not only do you have to pay for the moving truck and all the other moving gear, you also have to pay for the labor of moving furniture, equipment, appliances, and everything else you will be moving. Not to mention you have to pay the storage and delivery of your belongings.

Although there are a number of ways to save money on your move, it is important that you are prepared and have an idea of how you are going to be using the space that you are moving into. Before you begin your move, take a few minutes to think about what you will be moving into so that you can prepare properly and save money.

The best way to save money when you are moving is to make sure that your moving container is large enough to accommodate everything that you will be moving. When you begin your move, it is important that you have enough space for your belongings to fit comfortably and be in good condition before your move day. This is also important so that you can have the ability to pack your belongings up and transport them to the new home.

When you are moving from one state to another, it is important that you have a list of all of your belongings before you start your move. This list should include the name of the contents, the size and type of the items, their condition, and the location that they are being moved to. Once you have this list, it is important that you take a few minutes to sort through the items to see what things are absolutely necessary, and what items you can just live without.

One of the money saving moving tips is to make sure that you are aware of any special laws that may apply to you moving to a different city or state. Although most states have certain laws that govern what can be transported in certain ways, many states have laws that apply to interstate transfers. It is important that you be aware of any restrictions that may be in place so that you are able to do your due diligence when you are moving to a new location.

One of the money saving moving tips that you may want to consider when you are preparing for your move is to buy packing supplies from your movers. This can help you save money because you will not have to buy the boxes, tarp, tape, and tape dispensers that are required with standard packing supplies. Instead you can purchase the items in bulk from your mover's and have them shipped directly to your home.

Another money saving moving tip is to purchase packing supplies online. While it may take a bit more time to ship these supplies, the cost savings can be quite significant. This way you will not have to worry about extra charges from the shipping company and you will have the option of shopping at your leisure.

Lastly, another of the money saving moving tips that you may want to consider is to invest in a moving checklist. When you have a checklist that contains all of the moving supplies that you will need, you will be able to ensure that all of the moving materials are ready to go before your move day.
