Prepare for a move

Packing for a move is a difficult task. So much of your time is spent dismantling furniture and preparing fragile goods for safe travel.

While this isn’t the worst approach to pack, it can waste a lot of room and time (later) while also leaving you with a wrinkled and ruined clothing. 

Instead, learn how to pack clothes for a move the right way with these packing tricks for clothes and make the entire moving process simpler on yourself in the long run.

Great packing tips & ideas

1. CLEAN YOUR CLOSETS

One of the most important things you can do when packing clothes for a move is to get rid of any apparel that you no longer desire or need. 

There’s no reason to bring anything you haven’t worn in a year.

2. ORDER BY SEASON

When should you start packing your belongings for a move? You’re probably packing and relocating during one season. 

That means you can store your out-of-season clothing without losing your sense of style.

Box up those winter goods now that it’s summer. You’re not going to need those bathing suits any time soon if it’s winter.

3. USE THE ARMY ROLL TO SAVE SPACE

There are a number different ways to roll garments for packing. 

While some say that a flat fold is the best option, we prefer the army roll since it maximizes space while eliminating wrinkles. 

4. PACK ACCESSORIES INDIVIDUALLY

Keeping precious goods near to you throughout the relocation is usually a smart idea. Insurance only covers so much, and the unexpected does happen. 

If you can’t replace your jewelry, put it in a tiny pouch, match it with other valuables, and carry it with you while driving or flying to your destination. andddnjcsicjxnisj

I am so glad that we chose STORsquare for our move. Service was excellent! Adam was always available to answer questions, and they were flexible when coordinating dates for delivery, move to storage location, drop-off at new place, AND pick-up. Chris, the driver, was careful with the container during transportation. All our stuff arrived safely to our new place. Definitely recommend!

My experience with STORsquare was phenomenal from beginning to end. I researched several companies and found that they had the largest units for the best price. The customer service was outstanding. My representative explained the everything to me and followed up throughout the process. I highly recommend STORsquare Atlanta.

I have used STORsquare many times both for my business and when I moved my family. Their response time, courtesy, timeliness and cost are all exceptional.

Everything was very easy. The delivery was timely and efficient. I asked to have it at a certain spot and Chris happily obliged. I am very happy with the unit and where it was placed.

It was a pleasure renting from Storsquare. Prompted in responding to my questions, and was so simple setting up delivery and pickup dates for the pod. Price was perfect for my pocket and so convenient to have the additional storage on property.
