5 Helpful Tips to Organize Your Move with Ease

June 16, 20252 min read

Moving is a big life change, but it doesn’t have to be overwhelming. With the right strategy and a little planning, the process can actually feel empowering—and maybe even a little fun!

Tip #1: Prioritize Decluttering Early 

Moving is the perfect time to declutter because every item you let go of is one less thing to pack, move, and unpack—saving you time, energy, and even money on moving costs. Donated items should ideally be dropped off or scheduled for pickup before moving day, and yes, I’m happy to coordinate donation drop-offs or pickups as part of my service to make the process easier for you.

Tip #2: Clear Non-Essentials 

If you’re able to take down non-essential items like artwork, window treatments, shower curtains, and electronics before we arrive, it can really streamline the packing process. It allows us to dive right into carefully wrapping and boxing without spending extra time on disassembly. This small step helps things move faster and more efficiently on packing day.

Tip #3: Make Daily Essentials Easy to Find

Set aside your daily essentials—like clothes, toiletries, pet supplies, cleaning products, and packing tools—in a clearly labeled bin, suitcase, or designated closet so they’re easy to access until moving day. Let us know where these items are stored so we can be sure to leave them untouched. A little planning here keeps life running smoothly right up to the move.

Tip #4: Create an Unpacking Plan 

Having a clear unpacking plan can make settling into your new home feel a lot less chaotic—and yes, we can absolutely help with that! We usually recommend a room-by-room approach, starting with the most essential spaces like the kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms. This strategy allows you to gradually settle in while still feeling organized and functional from day one.
