Moving can be an exciting and stressful time—there are many decisions to be made and tasks to accomplish. A big question to ask yourself is if you will be completing your move DIY or with the help of professional movers. If you are moving DIY, Victory Van Corporation's full service movers want to give you some advice on how to avoid DIY moving and storage mistakes.

 

DIY Moving Mistakes

  • Incorrect or Not Enough Supplies - Moving with old boxes, not enough packing paper, and more, can risk the safety of your items. Heavier items should not be packed altogether to avoid breaking boxes, or dropping them, or straining while lifting and risking injury.
  • Lack of Organization - An unorganized move is rife with the possibility of accidents and things going wrong. If you stay organized, you will save yourself lots of time and hassle. Start packing one room at a time, label your boxes, and before the packing begins, select what items can be thrown away or donated so you don’t move anything you don’t need.
  • Not Packing Carefully - When the boxes are in your vehicle, pack them snuggly so they do not move or turn over during the drive. Put heavier items on the bottom.
