Don’t worry; you’re not alone. Most people dread moving. Finding a new home might be a little exciting, but even that can be quite stressful, never mind having to pack up all of your belongings and haul them, box by box, to the new place. So to make the move a bit easier, come on by and pick out your Glendale storage unit, and then take these tips into consideration before and during your move. Get the Playlist Ready Beforehand Have you ever noticed how grocery stores tend to play music that makes you feel good about shopping? It’s a trick of the trade. Most people don’t like to grocery shop, but if there’s some upbeat pop music playing, and especially music that they enjoy listening to, they may even stay longer and purchase impulse items. Motivate yourself and the people helping you move with upbeat music that makes you want to get up and move, and moving day will be that much less stressful and lackluster. Prepare Some Food Bribes If there is food, they will come. Let’s face it. If your moving day comes with the promise of treats, your friends and neighbors will be flocking to be a part of the action. That means you will probably have to invest in some party food. But, something as simple as a couple of pizzas, chips, and soda should be enough to fuel your moving crew up and keep them going, while not putting much of a hurting on your wallet. Participate in the Move If you are not paying a moving company and you expect your friends and family to help you move all of your belongings with only food as an incentive, you will likely need to participate in some of the difficult tasks, as well. Make sure that you remain as busy working and hauling as you expect everyone else to be, or it could turn out to be an even longer day than you expected. Offer Any Free Stuff to Those Who Come to Help Another way to incentivize friends and family to help you move is to tell them that those who are helping you move get the chance to take any of the stuff you plan to get rid of. This may incentivize some of your friends or family members who are eager to find a few free items, simply for helping you move. This is even a great incentive for your new Glendale neighbors to come and help you move your stuff into your home AND storage unit!
