At Apothikes.eu the major storage space company in Athens Greece we have many years experience of the difficulties of moving furniture , emptying a house or relocating. We suggest the following tips –
1.KEEP PRECIOUS ITEMS SAFE
Be careful with jewellery and special mementoes. Remove them from the house as a priority and place them in a safe or the temporary care of someone you trust. Make sure precious jewelry like your wedding ring or engagement ring doesn’t get lost in the moving process.
2.DISMANTLE IN ADVANCE
It takes longer than you could ever imagine to dismantle a bed a cot or a chest of drawers stairs. I would strongly advise you to start the furniture dismantling process as far in advance as possible.
3.PACK AWAY YOUR WALLET
When you are moving your house and your furniture it’s easy to get distracted. At some point I guarantee you’ll forget where you’ve put your handbag, or worse, fall victim to an opportunistic thief when you leave it on the dashboard. I’d always ditch the actual bag and keep your cash, phone ,keys and credit cards safe in a cross body bag or money belt.
4.TAKE A SURVIVAL KIT
Υou’ll need essential supplies. on moving day take a plastic crate and pack a kettle, milk, teabags, coffee, sugar, snacks, toilet roll, mugs etc I’d also add bin bags, cleaning cloths, multi-purpose cleaner.
5. TAKE CARE HOW YOU LABEL BOXES
If you have crystal glasses or fine porcelain dinner sets, silver plated cutlery do not write that outside the boxes so as not to risk theft by the moving company. Of course the owners of the moving company are to be trusted but maybe not one of their employees .
