Buyers: 30 Days and Counting to Moving Day
Preparing to move can be overwhelming, especially in the last few weeks leading up to the big day. Many people with Minneapolis homes for sale make a checklist for what to do in that last month before a move. There are plenty of things you can do well in advance to make your life easier, but things like shutting off or transferring utilities typically need to be done closer to your moving date. Whether you've found the home of your dreams or you're still looking at St. Paul homes for sale, these tips can help make any move run smoothly.
- Pack Non-Essentials
About a month before your moving date, begin packing items you don't use frequently. Starting with closets, cabinets, the basement, and the garage is a good way to get going. Non-essentials include clothing that's out of season, family photos, heirlooms, art, books, and anything else you won't use until you arrive at your new home. If you have a guest room or other areas you don't frequent too often, pack up everything that's in them. You can also pack up non-essentials from your office or art studio. After all, you're not going to have much time to do any extra work or create a masterpiece – you'll be too busy getting ready to head to your new home.
