Movers in Ottawa will take care of everything you need. In fact they can be both the movers and packers Ottawa homeowners need for their move. The one thing they don’t help with is the unpacking. Here are some tips to help you tackle the unpacking once the movers unload the last box:
* Prioritize: Consider the rooms you will need to use the day of the move and the following morning. This tends to be the bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen. Movers in Ottawa will place the boxes in the appropriate rooms with proper direction so this will make it easy to find the boxes you need. A good idea is to pack a suitcase with your towels and bed linens and toss it in your car. This way you can set up the beds as soon as they are moved in. In the same suitcase you can pack your everyday toiletries so you can unpack that next so you are ready to brush your teeth before bed. Last but not least consider what you will need for dinner and breakfast. If you decide to go the take out route it is not so worrisome. If this is not in the budget pack a box and mark it as “Kitchen 1” so you know this is the box with your most important items such as pans, toaster, coffee machine/kettle, etc.
* Clear Paths: Movers and packers in Ottawa will position things as best they can under your direction. However you will still be faced with stacks of boxes everywhere. Make sure to clear some paths so it is easy to get around and find the boxes you need when the unpacking begins.
* Clothes: If you have any clothes that you have not already hung in closets, etc. tackle these in the morning. Nothing feels more like home than having all of your personal belongings in place.
* Bedrooms: Let everyone familiarize themselves with their own new bedrooms and unpack their personal belongings and décor. Kids will have fun setting up their own desks, toys, etc. and it will be one less thing for you to worry about.
* Living Room: Make sure the TV and other electronics are set up so that the kids can keep themselves occupied while you attend to the rest of the unpacking.
