Tips and recommendations if you are moving
When we face a move process, we are generally overwhelmed and stressed. Moving all our belongings to a new house is not an easy task and requires a lot of organization. In today's blog, we give you some tips to make your move easier.
Planning is the key to efficiency
Following some planning guidelines is essential to avoid clutter and wasting time during your move. So start by taking a piece of paper and make a list of all the things you have to do. Secondly, organize this list and estimate how long each task will take you. This way, you will have a more approximate idea of the time you will need and, therefore, you will know how to organize yourself much better.
Having each of your movements planned in advance will undoubtedly save you a lot of stress and headaches. Additionally, it will be very useful for any unforeseen events that may arise.
Clean in the new house
First of all, if your new apartment or house needs some repairs or adjustments before you can move in, don't hesitate to carry them out. These will be much easier to do before rather than after, as you will be able to maneuver in a completely clear space.
On the other hand, it is essential to have a good vacuum cleaner since moving involves raising a large amount of dust. The Rider Pro Stick Vacuum from Mellerware is ideal for deep cleaning, and that is why we recommend it if you are going to move. It has the advantage of being cordless, so you can move freely and clean the entire place without getting tangled between boxes and furniture. Also, you won't have to worry about the battery as the vacuum has up to approximately 1 hour of autonomy, and whenever you're not using it, you can leave it charging.
Hire the moving service well in advance
We must remember that not all services are the same, nor is it just about hiring a moving truck. When choosing a company for this, it is necessary to make sure it is a reliable company with good references. Ensure that their staff is responsible and experienced, to avoid anything getting lost or damaged during the move.
If you need to move large furniture , make sure the truck you hire is the right one. Also, you should consider conditions such as the presence or absence of an elevator or the size of the landings when moving furniture. It seems obvious, but many people suffer delays, inconveniences, and extra charges for not taking this into account and finding out, too late, that their furniture doesn't fit through the building's door or can't turn in the landing to get them into the house.
Clean before packing
It's an excellent idea not to mix the different processes required for a house move. When we are immersed in this process, it is often the time to clean and get rid of objects and belongings that we have accumulated over time but no longer want to use.
This cleaning should be part of every move, as it is unnecessary to take objects you no longer want to use. For this, it is highly recommended to review beforehand what you want to take and what not, instead of waiting for the moment when you are going to put everything in the boxes.
If you have already done this cleaning beforehand and with organization, you will see how the packing process will be much easier for you and you will achieve it in less time. Also, you can save money on the move. Remember that the space you need in the truck will cost you more or less money.
Organize a good packing plan
Pack everything well classified and mark each box on the outside. A tip is to mark them with the name of the room where you want to place those objects in the new house. This way, unpacking and organizing everything will be easier for you. Also, include a brief list of the items inside.
A good idea is to start with the spaces you use the least. Once you have packed everything that was inside those rooms, you can turn them into storage for the rest of the boxes. This way, all the boxes you pack in the other rooms can be placed there, so they don't get in the way and you have an order of everything you have already packed.
Finally, try to not overfill the moving boxes, to avoid accidents during the move. Use small boxes for heavier items and, for lighter things, use large boxes.
The big day
On the day of moving everything from one place to another, do things calmly, without rushing. We know that this process can be exhausting, but not rushing will help ensure that all your planning is a success and the whole process occurs without major incidents.
A good idea is to carry things like phone chargers, toiletries, snacks, and drinks in a separate package, which can be handy and available throughout the process.
Starting your life in a new home
When moving, it is very likely that you have left behind furniture and appliances that you no longer use or that are no longer useful because they are old, do not work, or do not fit with the design of your new home. From Mellerware we have some essential products that can be very useful for starting your new life.
To ensure your home continues to shine like the first day you entered, in addition to the Rider Pro vacuum cleaner, previously recommended, we also suggest that once settled in your new home, you relax a bit and start investing in appliances that save you time and work.
Our robot vacuums Tidy Random and Tidy Gyro (with wifi) are the best solution to forget about cleaning and mopping the floor daily. They do it for you, and you can control them by remote control or through an App. This cutting-edge technology detects obstacles, avoids falls, goes around objects, climbs carpets, slows down before hitting the wall and furniture, and returns to its charging base on its own. In summary, you don't have to worry about anything, the robot goes on its own.
There are also other heavy tasks that we recommend leaving behind in your new life, such as cooking every day. Forget about cooking so much and leaving the kitchen a mess. We recommend trying our oil-free fryers Crunchy. Cook any dish without leaving a single stain in the kitchen. Choose the size that best suits you and make your usual recipes but in less time, without making a mess, and in a much healthier way. Additionally, we have a recipe book with which you can get inspired and make new recipes that you never thought could be made so easily in an oil-free fryer like ours.
Finally, we know that when one enters a new home, it takes shape little by little. But from day 1, there are fundamental needs like being able to make a good breakfast, which with Mellerware you can easily solve. Discover our Crispy toasters, Juicy juicers and Spring kettles and prepare yourself a good breakfast. We have a good variety of colors in black, red, and yellow, as well as modern designs that can perfectly match your new kitchen.
