The best of the unpacking hacks

Hogan Moving |

You did it! You have successfully moved your house and home to a new, wonderful place! All the major items have been taken care of, but now it’s time for the most dreaded part – mostly because you are so tired from everything else – unpacking. Luckily, we’ve had some experience in this area. Here are some unpacking hacks we’ve collected for you to use!

Before unpacking

For a truly successful unpacking session, a lot of it involves the initial packing process. Some quick tips on the best hacks for packing up your old home check out this article. But, depending on your situation, it might be best to hire a mover to do the packing and moving for you. Professionals always know best! Especially when it comes to the most effective way to pack.

Organize, organize, organize

This is such an important step. Before opening any boxes it’s essential to move each box into the room the contents will be going in. Having to run back and forth through the house will only drive you nuts and waste A LOT of time.

Supplies
Buckle down! Gather all your supplies beforehand to make the process as seamless as possible. Things you’ll need while unpacking: box cutters, trash bags for newspaper stuffing, and some heavy-duty gloves for heavy or sharp objects.

Room by room
Decide the order of rooms you will be unpacking in. This will also go a long way in saving time and stress. Usually bathrooms top the list with the need to get ready in the morning for work that is then followed by bedrooms and kitchens. No matter the room choice, it’s important to have a plan.

Feel better now? We hope so! If you have some hacks to add to this list, please let us know! Happy unpacking!
