If you’ve struggled with getting out from under your old mortgage and the family budget has taken a beating, here are some ways to make your moving dollars stretch farther:
Save Money By Packing Yourself.
Packing your household goods can be a very time and energy consuming task. On average, it will take 2 people 2 full days to pack and prepare for the move of a 3 bedroom house.
If you haven’t got the time or energy, you can always hire others to do the job for you. Discuss your needs with professional movers. They will do as little or as much packing as you want. Get quotes from several as their prices vary widely. If you have something delicate or valuable, why not have it professionally packed? This will increase your chances of it safely arriving to your new home. Packing yourself, though, can be a real money saver.
As soon as you know you’re moving, you might want to do some downsizing. Do you really need to bring absolutely everything with you? Use a garage sale as an opportunity to lighten your load. If a garage sale isn’t for you, you could donate your excess ’stuff’ to a local charity.
Boxes – How Many Will You Need? First of all, use boxes specifically designed for moving. They’re a good investment because they will protect your things better and save you time when you are loading the truck.
