Moving During The Holidays

Moving can be stressful, and this time of year can be stressful; put them together, and you've got a lot on your plate. But that doesn't mean you should be overwhelmed or cancel plans! With the right plan and positive attitude, you can ring in 2015 all moved in to your new home.

To avoid emotional distress, be sure to pack the belongings that mean the most to you first; pack the lights and holiday decorations in the last box. If you have children in your family, assure them that moving into a new house doesn't mean the holidays are canceled.

If a big holiday meal is important to your family, you can uphold traditions by having the big feast at another relative's house. Bringing a tin of festive cookies or a bottle of sparkling wine is a warm gesture that doesn't entail stressing over preparing an elaborate meal. Of course, you always have the option to postpone moving in the middle of the festivities. Pack up and leave the house in containers or a storage facility while you relax and enjoy your holidays.

Happy moving, and happy holidays from all of us here at the Bulwark Moving Company!
