The moment of change is a period of great expectation and anxiety. To avoid headaches, good preparation is necessary. Some precautions are essential when moving to a new home, and, to protect your belongings well, we have brought you some tips for your move to take place in a more practical and simple way.
First, it is essential that residents accompany transport professionals throughout the moving process, and pay attention to the handling of their belongings. Pay attention when dismantling furniture, especially the larger ones, which must never be transported already assembled. This can damage the structure of the furniture, and greatly increases the risk of accidents.
Packing should be a priority when starting the transport of changes. Pack all furniture pieces together to make it easier when reassembling the new property. Also, it may seem obvious, but it's important to point out that each type of object requires a different type of packaging. By customizing each one's packaging, you ensure that shipping is as safe as possible.
Less fragile items, such as clothes, shoes and other accessories, can be transported in ordinary cardboard boxes, without the need for impact-reducing materials such as bubble wrap. Books, glass, ceramics, and other fragile materials need to be better packaged, preferably individually, and accommodated in more resistant boxes, made of cardboard or even plastic or wood.
Home appliances need a lot of attention in this process. As the parts are fragile, they need to be well packaged and stored in the truck. The fridge is a special case: it should preferably be transported empty, and turned off at least 24 hours beforehand. If it is a frost-free model, 8 hours are enough. It is also good to remember that, to maintain organization, keep a list throughout the moving process, thus preventing objects from getting lost along the way.
