Moving can be an all-around stressful time. In fact, it happens to be the one time we realise just how much stuff we actually own and begin to question whether we actually need it all. Here at Jacksons Removals, we are the experts when it comes to all things removal related. Whether you are moving to a new office or a new home, we’re the guys who can help you get it done. As with any industry, several myths have become entwined with the truth and people don’t know what to believe anymore. Here are the top 3 removal myths and the solutions to fix them…
Myth: You should try to move on a Friday
Although there is no day set in stone for when it is best to move, the idea that a Friday is the better suited day often comes to mind because of the extra two days at the weekend, especially when you are moving house. Contrary to belief, moving on a Friday may increase van hire costs and could contradict work requirements. You should plan the days you will move in advance and try to allocate work holidays for the occasion rather than relying on the weekend.
Myth: You should leave packing until the last minute because you don’t know what you will need
This common myth tends to stem from television which portrays packing for a big move as carefree and easy going, where people see items being added to boxes last minute because the character ‘might have needed it’. In reality, leaving all the packing until last minute will cause unnecessary stress. To combat this, you should pack as early as possible and create a checklist so you know which items are where if you do happen to need them before leaving.
Myth: I can rent a van and move everything myself
Although hiring professional removal services appears costly compared to hiring a van and doing it yourself, you must keep in mind that you are also paying for a company’s time, materials and labour. It takes a considerable toll on professional movers who must carry all of your belongings out of one place, into the van and then into another place. Plus, having someone do all the hard work takes the stress of your shoulders, so what’s not to love?
