4 Big Benefits of Purging Extra Stuff Before a Move

By N.C. Texas Moving on May 05, 2017

One of the big tips that movers continue to give customers to help with their move is to purge. Many people have a hard time sifting through their possessions and reducing their belongings. It may be difficult to separate from the memories or attachment, but there are a variety of reasons to try to clean out your closet ahead of a move.

As Houston movers, we have years moving families of all sizes. We have found this to be one of the most beneficial steps you can take to make your move smooth and successful. Not convinced? Check out all of these addition benefits to cleaning out your home:

• Reduce Your Load- One of the most obvious reasons to look into purging is that it enables you to lighten the load. This will help save you time and money throughout the moving process. If you recently moved and didn’t bother to unpack boxes, that’s a telltale sign you don’t miss those items.
• Declutter- Start your new life in your new home with a clean slate. Whether you are downsizing or upsizing, the lack of extra stuff will help prevent clutter from creeping into the new home. Keep your home clean and organized with less closets that are stuffed to the brim, drawers that won’t closs, and shelves that are overflowing.
• Teachable Moment- This is great time to teach your kids a few lessons about the value of things. If they have extra toys they haven’t played with in years, this is a great time to show them how some don’t have the same luxury and that they can donate their toys to them. This one moment could be a defining factor to a child’s development.
• Make Room for New- A new home and a new start often gets people excited for other new things. Make room for the new belongings by clearing out the old. Whether you sell or donate these items, you will now have the space to enjoy the new.
