Moving soon?  Moving Nearby?  Professional moving company Carmack Moving and Storage offers up a piece of free advice to make everyone’s life easier: Plan your move.

The phrase “moving day” is a misnomer.  Moving takes weeks leading up to the actual day when you must vacate your premises.  Experienced movers like Carmack Moving and Storage will attest that “moving month” is more like it.

Short or long, a move is a move. Carmack Moving and Storage prefers to make sure you’ve packed everything entirely before the move. Then you can unpack it when you get there.  No matter the distance of your move, box everything that you can possibly box.

Robert Carmack will agree – a few days before your move, pack a bag of articles you will need on hand for the next week.  Within three days of your move, you should be living exclusively out of this suitcase, not out of your dressers, closets, office, or bedroom. “Think about the things you’ll need the first night in your new home,” advises Robert Carmack, owner of Carmack Moving and Storage.  “Pack items that serve your basic needs in a separate bag and carry it with you.”

Seldom-used items should be packed as much as two weeks in advance.  Pack all of your out-of-season clothing early. Toss a couple of books and DVDs into the suitcase you will be packing to live out of. Then box up the rest of your media early – all of it.

Mr. Robert Carmack owns Carmack Moving and Storage.  He has over three decades of professional moving experience, and happily shares his insights and experience to facilitate smooth moves.

Many people try to move without help.  At least, without professional help. The knowledge of professional movers like Carmack Moving and Storage can be an indispensable asset long before your actual moving day arrives.

If you plan on moving without the help of professionals like Carmack Moving and Storage, make sure you do the reconnaissance.  Moving takes planning, patience, and time.  Robert Carmack offers free advice for just such moving preparation.

First of all, index your boxes.  A lot of people think that this is too much trouble.  But think of it this way:  You are going to unpack very much like you packed, one box at a time.  You are not going to unpack in one day, either.

With an index of the contents of your boxes, you can simply read the index according to what you need that day and open the right box, rather than opening six different boxes because you need to find a frying pan to prepare eggs before hurrying off to your new job.

“Keep stress levels down,” cautions Robert Carmack of Carmack Moving and Storage.  “Take thirty minutes in the beginning of your move and address the simple issues.” A month before your move, begin collecting the boxes you will be using.  Carmack Moving knows that too many people do not even remember to gather empty boxes until the last few days before they are due to vacate their occupancy. Consequently, they find themselves running around hopelessly trying to pack four messy rooms into garbage bags and pillow cases at the last minute.

Carmack Moving and Storage is owned by Robert Carmack.  With thirty years of moving experience, Mr. Carmack is intent on making moving less trouble through the simple virtue of planning ahead.
