We have spent more than 35 years accompanying many families through their moving processes.
In this article, we will talk about a very common type of situation that might happen to you. We’ll tell you the real story of a client.
For a month, the woman had been busy going through the entire family’s belongings—her own, her husband’s, and those of her 4 children—preparing for the move from a home that had been theirs for more than 30 years.
Her children had already moved out, but some of their things were still there. Due to a lack of time, they couldn’t go through their belongings before the move, and the woman took responsibility for deciding on everyone’s things, making the biggest mistake you can make: not involving your loved ones in the process.
This lady’s mental overload and physical exhaustion were at their limit when our professional organizer, along with the moving team, arrived to pack and handle the relocation.
It is important to make the whole family aware that moving is a process that concerns everyone. That’s why we recommend, once the moving date is set, having a family meeting with the members of the household to decide which tasks each person will handle. Even if your children are no longer at home, it is very likely they are still occupying their old room, part of the garage, or the storage unit.
It’s about you and your loved ones preparing for a new stage. It’s about enjoying this change and the moving process. It’s better to share them than to let one person get overwhelmed with the entire task.
After the first step of getting everyone involved, the time comes for each person to go through their belongings; deciding which ones to discard, give away, or move. We assure you that this is “the moment,” and there won’t be a better opportunity to do it.
If you prefer to have the support of our professional organizer and experience a move with the certainty that you and your loved ones will enjoy the process, you can ask us about our professional organization and support service. We will take care of everything, from the initial pre-move stage to the post-move. Our goal is to make the transition to your new home as smooth as possible.
