(This is a guest post from our good friend and professional Personal Concierge, Vicki Rawson from North County Concierge. We've referred her to many clients and have even used her ourselves, so we know her tips are valuable!)
Let’s talk about moving house one of life’s most stressful events! My family has moved homes seven times in the past eleven years and one of those moves was from the UK to California! Our most recent was several weeks ago, so believe me, I know how stressful and overwhelming the whole process can be!
There are resources available to make that moving to-do list less daunting! Hiring a Personal Concierge to help you navigate the organizing and decluttering process, as well as, the packing and unpacking of your home can save you many hours of time. We can help with the planning and implementation of your move.
Starting early is the key. In fact, the first step often needs to be getting your house decluttered and unnecessary items removed for staging your home for sale. It’s really best to get rid of items you don’t want, need or use before your move. We can help our clients with this process and then arrange for donation drop off (or pick up), consignment of items, or junk removal for items no longer needed.
As well as helping with the decluttering and organizing aspect of your move, a Personal Assistant can also help with the packing, obtain quotes and arrange for movers, organize any repairs or cleaning services required, and help with unpacking and organizing your new home.
If you’re looking to do it yourself, here are 10 top tips to help you make the process smoother:
