Advice on packing boxes for moving: how to make relocating easier

Moving house is a tricky process, with loads of things to worry about and organise. It can take many months for a house sale to complete, and there can be many problems along the way especially if you are part of a large chain. You will most likely have fallen in love with your new home before you have even completed, which is why it can be such an emotional process.  Moving house can be very expensive for most people too. The solicitors’ fees, stamp duty, removal costs as well as buying the actual house can all cost a small fortune. This is the reason that most people only move once every seven years or when they absolutely need to.  So you have finally been given a completion date, and this is the day that you exchange contracts and the new house becomes yours, and the old house no longer is yours. Usually you have a set time when you need to be out of the house and some people choose to use a removal company to help them move while others simply hire a van or lorry themselves and ga

What are the benefits of using large boxes for moving?

Moving house is a difficult process, with lots of things to organise and think about. If you have finally been issued a completion date from the solicitors, it can be a huge weight off your shoulders. All you have to do is move your belongings into the new house; sounds easy right? Think again... moving home is extremely stressful. You need to organise the best removal company to help you to move, or if you are planning to do the move yourself, then you need to organise renting a van and finding some friends or family to help out. You’ll also need to prepare and buy the packaging materials you need for moving; cardboard boxes, bubble wrap, strong tape, tissue paper, wardrobe boxes and a dispenser gun are all very useful items.  Choosing the right type and size of box for moving is one thing, then choosing the quantity that you need is another. The one thing that is for certain is that you should always use strong double walled packing boxes for moving, as they are perfect for stacking

House Moving: Avoid The Mistakes, Make It A Smooth Transition

Moving house is a very stressful and difficult time for most people. The average UK resident moves once every seven years, so it is not going to be something you are familiar with. There are loads of different things to have to organise and worry about, and it can be a very long process from start to finish. Finding your perfect dream home is one thing, then selling your own home is another, combined with the fact that you might be in a long chain which could fall through at any moment which can go on for many months. Next you have to organise solicitors and chase them up on a regular basis, as well as organising your mortgage through an advisor. When you have finally finished all the paperwork and finally been given a completion date, then comes the next part of the equation; the actual move.  Moving house itself doesn’t have to be difficult if you know what you are doing. As long as you avoid the most common mistakes, moving should be a breeze.  Here are the most common house moving

The Best Book Box Size: Selecting The Right Boxes For Your Move

Moving house is a long process that can last for many months and in some cases years. Long chains often fall through and solicitors drag their feet. You have to fill out endless amounts of documents for the mortgage lender too, and so when you are finally given a completion date this can feel like a huge weight lifted off your shoulders. Now you have to plan the actual move itself before you can relax in your new home. To organise the move you will need to buy the right packaging materials and you will need to organise a removal company or a removal van to help you. All of these should be purchased far in advance so that you have plenty of time available to pack up your things and so that you have guaranteed you have a van available to move with. There is nothing worse than having to organise these things at the last minute, because legally you have to be out of your current home by a specific time on the completion date otherwise you are technically squatting. So when it comes to sele
