If you have been offered a new job or you are moving for a different reason you should definitely start planning your move as soon as possible.
There are many ways in which you can prepare well in advance for your relocation.
You might be considering hiring a removal company and cleaners, as well as considering what to pack, move and what to store, sell or throw out.
All these processes should be planned in good time so that you get a stress free moving day.
The first thing you can do is if you know what type of property you are moving in to is start planning how you will furnish your new home by drawing up a floor plan.
This is of course only possible when you have arranged the flat you renting or bought the house you will live in.
Drawing up a plan will help you in deciding what furniture to bring and what you should sell.
Moving furniture or items you will not need or have room for in your new place is a waste of space and money.
It will also allow you to include new things you will need to buy in your moving budget.
Many also arrange for cleaners to come and thoroughly clean the property at the end of the moving day.
Some removal companies are able to arrange cleaning services through their company, but it is always a good idea to get a few different quotes to compare and possibly force down the price of the company you do want to go for.
Remember that a cleaning company can be a great way to secure getting your deposit back.
With some rental companies taking significant sums in deposits and trying to find any possible loop hole to not pay it back, do your best to secure it.
If you are selling your home, it is essential to get it down in the contract what state the house will be in when you move out.
All work that needs to be done should be listed and whether you are completing it or if it something that the new owners will needs to do should also be included.
This also includes cleaning the house before you move out.
Other work can include fresh coat of paint, if agreed, as well as fixing minor damage.
Some even offer to clean out gutters and rake up leaf and other minor work in the garden before moving out.
These things should have been done before you started the sales process, but it might also be time for a quick outdoor sweep over before you move out.
