Toronto Real Estate: Organizing a Worry Free Move by:Robert Kennedy

Everyone hates to moveEveryone hates to move. There simply isnt a more grueling, stressful task. Sure, moving is hard work, but then theres the problem of having everything tore up around you. There isnt anywhere to escape and unwind. So, in addition to being exhausted from the work, you cant get a moment to breathe and relax because everything is piled up around you.

Movers are expensive, and who wants strangers going through their personal effects? For these reasons, most people make the decision to do all of the work themselves. If you have made a similar decision, you need to read the following tips before you start packing:

Dont leave everything till the last minute. One full month before you move into your new Toronto real estate, you should rent a storage building close by your current home. Start gathering boxes and store them in the building. Pack things you dont use (holiday decorations, keepsakes, extra dishes, closet clutter, off-season clothes, etc.) and store them in the building as well.

Do not leave any boxes sitting around your home. This will keep you from feeling overwhelmed and stressed out over the move. Aside from being emptier and less cluttered, your home should not show any signs of the impending move.

Throw away stuff you do not need as you pack. Do not take junk with you to your new home. And DONT organize a yard sale or give your unwanted items to charity unless you plan on doing so at a later time. Dont take on too many projects at once.

Ask a friend or family member to take care of all of the paperwork and legwork for you. Have them complete your change of address, purchase packing materials and deal with the utility companies. You will be surprised by how much moving you can accomplish if you are not distracted.

Use color-coded stickers to label boxes: blue for bedroom, green for kitchen and so on. This will allow you to sort boxes at a glance and put them where they need to go.

Rent a moving truck for at least two days. If you only rent a truck for one day, you may run into problems and end up having to work around the clock. Renting a truck for two days allows you to take breaks and accommodate any delays without stress.

Load the things you dont need (the stuff in the storage building) first. Put the stuff that you will need immediately on the back of the truck. This reduces the need to get everything unloaded quickly.

Moving into new Toronto real estate does not need to be stressful. With a little bit of planning and organization, you can make a smooth transition into your new home. Be sure to get plenty of rest and recruit a lot of help. Pretty soon, you will be sleeping in your new home and everything will be unpacked and beautiful, just the way you imagined it.
