Moving home is a huge responsibility and requires lot of works to be done before actually moving. It creates a complete confusion and makes us stressed. Especially when you have planned to move without the help of moving agency then, work becomes a very tough one.
It must be kept in mind to move home manually you need at 4-5 heads. You have to pack goods, load them in lorry, reload at new location and re-arrange them finally. All these work requires a lot of energy and stamina to be completed successfully and one cannot do all alone.

Start packing at 2 months before, to move one place to another. Pack the things that you do not feel to use before you completely move. You can pack items like curtains, quilts (if hot weather), old books, unused clothes, vessels etc in advance. But the actual packing should be started before 10 days; it is one of easy way to the movers. First off all sort out the goods to be packed together. Put them at a separate place. Remember do not include goods of daily use like clothes, toothbrush, towel, kitchen goods, buckets etc.
Bring packing objects to pack the goods. You can bring such packaging material from one of the best Packers and Movers. They will provide all kind of packing material like packing box, cartons, tape, adhesive, cushioning material etc.
Pack your goods in all respective boxes. Never choose big boxes to pack heavy goods. It is very better to pack them in small boxes. It is trouble-free to carry out. Before stuffing anything cushions the bottom of box with wadded papers. If the good is fragile or is electronic item then cushion the box with bubble wrapper to keep away from damage. However it is preferred to pack the electronic appliances in their close relative cartons. Dry out refrigerator, dishwasher and washing machine before 2 days of wadding them. Keep the wires of all appliances in a separate
Do not give space between two items in box. They can be damaged to collision on the way. Fill them with filler like paper, spray, cotton, etc. Do not commit mistake of carrying LPG filled cylinder or other fuels. Make them empty before moving your location.
Although furniture should be packed on the day of move, but pack the furniture of one room in advance or move them in other room. It is for the reason that you will need an empty room to keep the packed goods. Pack kitchen ware before a day if you can assemble readymade foods for a day or two. If not, pack all items leaving gas stove, 1 pan, pot, two-three plates and bowl. Never forget to keep 2-3 small bags empty on the last day. You will need them to put small ignored goods like soap case, brush stand and other like items.
If you have an own lorry or big vehicle then load them and proceed. If you do not have, hire a mini truck or make use of it from one of your relative.
