Moving from one apartment in Southwest Florida to another, like all changes you go through, is difficult. You’re leaving something familiar, something that’s been a part of your life, for something new and unknown. As if moving from one apartment to another isn’t physically and emotionally stressful enough, imagine moving from a full apartment to another apartment. The downsizing in living space will surely stress out anyone who has accumulated lots of stuff over the years. To make your move less stressful, here are some useful tips from Florida’s Decorator’s Warehousing & Delivery.

1. Plan your activities well ahead of time.

As with all important events, planning is essential. A well thought-out and planned move will save you lots of time and energy. Plan your schedule.

2. Make reservations and arrangements in advance.

Once you have the dates of your move and you have identified the services that you will need, make reservations and arrangements as early as you can. This will ensure that you can have your desired service providers and you’ll have more time to discuss the things that ...
... you need for the move. CallFlorida’s Decorator’s Warehousing & Delivery to schedule your move.

3. Make an inventory of the things you own.

Those that you use often go to the first category, the must-haves. Those that you have not used within the last year must go to the next category, the disposables. And the last category will be those items that you need, but can be replaced (i.e., that big flat-screen TV can be replaced by a LED TV, can be mounted on your wall).

4. Take measurements of your furniture.

Take the measurements of your existing furniture, then get the room dimensions of your new apartment. With this data, create a floor plan for your apartment. This will help you decide which furniture you can take with you, and which stuff needs to go into storage.

5. Hold a garage sale in your yard.

Now that you have identified the things that need to go, it’s time to dispose of them. And what better way to dispose of the stuff you don’t need than making some money from it? Sell those books that you finished eons ago and are just collecting dust on your shelves or those sweaters you haven’t worn in years. You can use the money you have earned to buy the things that you will actually need and will actually fit in your new apartment.

Not everything will sell, and one option for you is to donate the remaining good quality things to charity. And what about those things that you simply can’t let go, but can’t fit in your apartment? These could be heirloom furniture, passed in your family from generation to generation. If there is a chance of moving to a bigger space someday, you may consider furniture storage facilities for them, like Florida’s Decorator’s Warehousing & Deliveryto store your items.
