Moving can be a stressful endeavor. From finding a new place to call home to saying goodbye to the old, moving can initially provide more headache than happiness. When you decide to put your things into a Chandler self-storage unit during the process, however, you can reduce stress and ease worries about having enough space or time to complete your move. Here are some tips to help make your move as stress-free as possible. Plan Things in Advance Don’t wait until the month before you know you’ll need to be out of your current place to start searching for your new place. Similarly, don’t wait until the last second to reserve your Chandler storage unit, hire movers, or make arrangements for a moving truck. When planning a move, it is smart to start getting things in order about 60-90 days in advance, if not sooner depending upon how serious of a move you’re making. Decide What to Take, Store, or Toss You should know before it’s packing day what things you’ll plan on bringing to your new home, what things you’ll put in storage either during the move or longer term (this is common if your move is temporary or when downsizing), and what things you’ll finally part ways will. If you have trouble letting go of items, ask a friend to help you sort through things you really need and should keep, and things you can afford to say goodbye to. Ask for Help Don’t be afraid to rely on others for help during your move - doing so can be quite comforting, and may even be a necessity. Remember, you do not have to plan, pack, and move everything on your own! In addition to friends and family, there are also numerous professional moving services available. Remember to also take advantage of perks when they’re available. For example, at US Storage Centers’ Chandler location, we have moving carts on the property that help make things more doable. Take Care Of Yourself, Too In the midst of a move, you may be so worried and stressed about getting everything else done that you could completely forget about the importance of taking care of yourself! However, providing yourself with some TLC will help to reduce stress, improve sleep, and keep your energy levels elevated. Eat well, get plenty of sleep, and do something fun and enjoyable in the midst of it all.
