So when you find yourself having to make a change and accommodate others, you may also find the change to be useful and productive. This is exactly what happened to me one day, I have three children, two who have married and are in their own home with their families, and the third my son who had recently married and moved out into a rental home.

MAKING CHANGES

For the next nine months my wife and I made changes to the house, as our son had taken most of his belongings and some of ours too. We changed his room into a study and we were appreciating the peace and quiet, and had the luxury of privacy we hadn’t had for quite a long time. Then suddenly out of the blue our son came over to let us know that they were having baby, wonderful news but unfortunately his wife was quite ill during the pregnancy, and was told by doctors she needed to take it easy throughout the pregnancy.

So she had to quit her job and stay at home. The problem with this was that on one income they couldn’t afford to rent and save up for a home, so it was suggested that it would be a good idea if they move back in with us until ...
... the baby was born, and they were back on track financially.

ACCOMODATING YOUR FAMILY

Of course as a family we supported their decision, but we knew there would be a lot involved, firstly we needed to accommodate all their new furniture, so we had to make some storage space and clear rooms for them and the baby. We decided to make room in the garage for the extra furniture, so we had a couple of days cleaning that out, to make space, and then there were the other rooms in the house.

It was a four bedroom home, one was our room the others were a bedroom each for my daughters when they were at home and of course my sons’ room which we had turned into the study. The hardest part was making enough room, so we decided we would use one of the bedrooms to store as much as possible and then make one room for the baby and the other for my son and his wife.

GETTING THE MOVE ORGANISED

They needed to organize the move which we also needed to help with. As my son couldn’t take too many days off work and his wife was unable to do anything tiresome or strenuous, we did all we could to organize the move. We did the smaller and more personal items and for the larger pieces we called the experts. After doing a little bit of homework about different furniture removalist companies, making sure you choose the furniture removalists that will take care of your possessions with great customer service, will greatly help to ease the pressure of the move. There are many good companies out there, but the one that caught our eye was Quick Pick movers. They were friendly and professional and advised us about everything we needed to know about the move. They addressed all our concerns and arrived early to start the packing and loading of the furniture onto the truck. Everything was done with efficiency and effortlessness. Before we knew it the furniture was packed and on its way to our home. When they arrived at our home, we had the rooms ready for the new furniture. The removalists unloaded everything from the truck and carefully placed the items where we needed them. This made everything easy to set up and get organized.
