ORGANIZE YOUR MOVE
Organizing your move is much easier than you would think!
Moving is a wonderful opportunity to get organized! It is time to un-jam closets or cupboards, un-dump drawers and anything else that is hidden away. Even the most organized person will occasionally have to return to unused or unseen items to remember they own them in the first place.
Moving is the time to go through all of your "stuff". Some you will keep, some you will give away and lots you will trash! Take the extra time as you are packing to review what you own and make sure everything is something you will find necessary and useful in you new life. If it does not cut the mustard, it is time to throw it away.
You may even find you can "lighten the load" saving you packing time and moving costs as you find things you no longer need.
Keep the stuff someone else will find usable so give to charity as you leave.
This can all be a very uplifting experience, honest it can!
Now, start packing by area. This will make unpacking much easier once you arrive. Keep your linen closet items together, bathroom items together, tools or garage items in as many boxes as is necessary.
It is that simple!
Moving can be traumatic or it can be a new adventure for the whole family.
The concepts outlined above are very basic and you will personalize as it best meets with your particular need.
Kids Get Organized
Tell yourself (and believe) that some degree of clutter with a child is going to happen no matter what!
Next comes the healing of relationships, where everyone works together in one accord, so in harmony. These dilemmas are all good indications that it is time to dig in. Decide on a suitable place for items you have accumulated over the years, which are waiting to be sorted, filed or acted on. Another problem clutter will cause is that it makes a person feel overwhelmed.
