Plan ahead before moving from Chevy Chase to Clarksburg

As with most things, you’ll want to create a comprehensive plan for your move. This plan should include time estimates and cost estimates. Start from zero and build up.

  1. Visit your new space. First, you’ll want to know how big the space is in your new home. It’s important to visit the place you’ve decided to relocate to. This will save any troubles with not having enough room for your belongings.
  2. Create a packing and organizing calendar. You need good time management. It’s imperative you don’t forget something important or suddenly run out of time for your preparation. Due to work and family, you might not have that much time to spare for packing. We recommend setting aside a few hours a day for packing purposes.
  3. Weigh all your options. This step can be applied to anything from packing services to storage services. Always be aware of all your options and think them over carefully for the best results.

Packing tips

Since you’re moving from Chevy Chase to Clarksburg, which is short-distance, it might not be in your best interest to pack everything very intricately. You will want to resume everyday life as soon as possible. This is something you can work with while packing. Also, be sure you’ve got all the packing essentials already prepared!

1. Keep your clothes on hangers

This is one of the easiest ways to ensure you will have a quick unpacking. If you leave your clothes on hangers, you can simply hang them up in your new closet and continue about your day. A useful tip we can give you is to cover your clothes with garbage bags. This way no dust will find its way onto your clothes, nor will they stain.

2. Downsize!

Downsizing is something most of us do pretty rarely. Moving is the perfect time for this kind of endeavor. Throw away anything that isn’t functioning anymore. For things you realize you just don’t need anymore but are in good condition, you can consider donating. Alternatively, if you’re a bit short on cash, selling some of your things is also an option.

3. Pack by room

Another way to save time while unpacking is to pack things according to their rooms. Most of the things residing in your living room are likely to stay in your living room. This will also help you keep tabs on what you’ve already packed and how much work there is leftover.

4. Label things!

To not misplace any items, it is a good idea to label your moving boxes. This will aid you in unpacking, but also you will be able to tell if something is missing.

5. Pack an essentials bag

Once you arrive at your new home, chances are you will be extremely tired from a whole day’s worth of work. To make things easier on yourself, we recommend packing an essentials bag with your toiletries, some clothes, and some food to get you through a few days. Still, it is advisable to start unpacking as soon as possible.
