How do you calculate the cost of your move?
Typically, when estimating the cost of a move, you multiply the projected time required to accomplish the move by the hourly rate charged by the moving company in question. Add the cost of other items, such as packing materials, travel time, and gratuities if you are working with movers, to get to the final estimate.
What can you do to better organise your move?
- Organise all of your moving-related paperwork in a binder, including moving checklists, receipts, phone numbers for the Somerset West municipal offices, a list of donations and receipts for those donations, floor plans, styling ideas, contractor bids, medical records, school records, financial documents, and all relevant information from the moving company.
- Create and print a checklist or to-do list to guide what you need and when.
- Plan your packing strategy. Decide which rooms will be packed first, generally starting with the non-essential spaces. Estimate the number of boxes and other packaging material you will need.
- Make a list of the contents of each box as you pack it. Tracking your belongings (packed and unpacked) and where they are after the relocation will be easier if you keep a complete record.
- Colour code your boxes to make the unloading and placement of these boxes in your new home easier and more efficient.
- Prior to the relocation, make a list of all of the furniture, clothing, and other home items that you desire to donate, and keep this list handy. Once you’ve finished your list, decide where you’d like to donate the unwanted items you’ve set aside. You may want to think of the Little Angels Home, the Imibala Trust, or the Somerset West Night Shelter as possible options.
Can I include alcohol and food in the move load?
If the bottles of alcohol are properly packaged and stowed, the majority of moving companies will be happy to transport them for their customers. Some considerations to keep in mind when transporting alcoholic beverages: To reduce the likelihood of breaking, store your open bottles in a double-layer corrugated cardboard box with some form of padding in between them. In most cases, your movers will pack your food for you. You must, however, examine whether it is a sensible idea in the first place. We recommend that you throw away any food in glass jars and anything perishable rather than transporting it to your new home because they may shatter and spill before you get to your new home.
How can I protect wooden furniture when moving?
Protect the wood with a protective covering to keep it from getting scratched or damaged, but avoid using plastic because it might generate moisture and swelling. Protect the wood using rags, furniture pads, and moving blankets to keep it from being exposed to sunlight, dampness, and dust.
What can I do to declutter before a move?
- Donate unwanted furniture, clothes and other household items to charities in the Somerset West area or social services at the Helderberg Hospital. Set collection dates for the stuff well in advance of moving day to avoid unnecessary feet and traffic when you load the truck.
- If there are some items that you are not sure you want to give away, place them in a short-term storage facility so you can decide at a later, less hectic time.
- Cleanup your closet from all unwanted and old clothing. Include items that are out of style or you have never worn and know you will not buy in future.
