Being Prepared For Move Day: Supplies To Help Make Your Move Stress-free

On your move day, there may be certain items that come in handy to minimize stress. Imlach and Collins Brothers suggest preparing a “ready-to-go supply box”, so that you can avoid unnecessary trips to the store while trying to move-in.

Sample Packing Guide

Imlach and Collins Brothers suggests having the list of items including some of the ones below in an accessible box or bag to bring with you:

  • Cleaning supplies: paper towels, cleaning sprays, rags, trash bags, sponges

    • Chances are that you will arrive at your new home and there will be a brief waiting period before your belongings arrive. Avoid having to go to the store and be prepared when you arrive at your new home.

  • Snacks: sandwiches, water, granola bars, fruit, juice

    • When moving into your new home it would be a good idea to pack food and drink to stay hydrated and nourished while carrying heavy furniture and boxes into your new home.

  • Toiletries: toothbrushes, toothpaste, towels, soap, deodorant, toilet paper, sunscreen, medicine

    • Once you arrive at your new home, it is important to make sure that the essential toiletries are packed and ready for use. This way you can avoid any unnecessary trips to the local grocery store during your arrival.

  • Kitchen supplies: disposable plates, bowls, utensils, cups, napkins

    • While waiting for your belongings to arrive at your new residence, it is important to have disposable kitchen supplies to tide you over until your belongings get delivered.
