Make Your Moving Day Go Smoothly with the Right Moving Supplies

Moving from one home to another can be stressful, but proper planning and the right packing supplies can help make your moving day go smoothly. Pack everything you can in cardboard moving boxes ahead of time, taking care to label the contents and room destination with a permanent marker. Use bubble wrap and packing paper to protect any delicate items, then seal the boxes up with packing tape. A packing tape dispenser can make this task a lot easier. Wrap large items like your fridge and stove in moving blankets secured with moving straps to prevent damage. If you’ve hired professional movers they’ll come with their own moving dollies and moving supplies. If not, you’ll want a hand truck, appliance dolly and furniture dolly to speed things along. Lifting straps are also very useful and can help prevent injuries. 

It’s important to have a plan for unpacking too. Start with the kitchen so you can prepare meals, using a utility knife to open the boxes. Make sure you have plenty of garbage bags to throw out packing materials. You'll also want to have some cleaning supplies on hand to freshen up your new home. This includes floor cleaners, kitchen and bathroom cleaners, and some good disinfectants and deodorizers.
