Planning the Perfect Move into Your Austin Apartment

The next important hurdle is moving – out of your old Austin apartment and into your new one. Although moving can be stressful, planning will greatly improve the experience for you and everyone involved. Consider these tips:

De-clutter As you Pack
Sort items as you pack. Put a box or two aside for items that can be donated to charity or sold in a garage sale.

Plan Your Packing
When packing, tackle one room at a time and label each box with a description of its contents and its destination (e.g., kitchen, bathroom). Number the boxes to track any that may be lost.

Mark Everything
No one will know which box contains your grandmother’s prized Russian crystal unless you tell them. Mark all boxes clearly, especially those containing valuables.

Pack An Essentials Box
Designate one box for essentials you will need during and immediately after unpacking. Include the telephone, tools, toilet paper, prescriptions, soap, bedding, toothbrushes and a change of clothes. Carry the essentials box in your car.

Reserve Parking for the Moving Truck
Arrange parking in advance to avoid unnecessary headaches.

Move to Your Austin Apartment Outside Peak Hours
Schedule your move for a weekday morning when parking will be plentiful and most people are at work.

Unscrew Bulbs
Remove bulbs from lamps before packing.

Balance the Load
Pack heavy items in small boxes and light items in larger boxes.

Put Fido in Doggie Daycare
Moving is stressful for everyone, especially pets. Arrange for your animal to stay with a friend or at a kennel on moving day.

Get Your Money’s Worth
Don’t risk your damage deposit in the rush to decorate your new Austin apartment. Remember to clean your old apartment thoroughly. When you are done clean some more.

Protect Your Memories
Pack anything you cannot bear to lose in your car. For most people this box will include photos and essential documents such as passports.

Keep the Drinks Coming
Pack refreshments such as lemonade or coffee to replenish weary movers. Save the pizza and beer for after the work is done.

Invest in Good Packing Materials
Buy sturdy boxes, packing tape, bubble wrap and packing peanuts from a moving company or truck-rental firm. Use crumpled newspaper, blankets, pillows and clothing to protect fragile objects.
