  • First, choose what you want to move. One of the very efficient tips on moving cheap is to not move absolutely everything you have. Especially when it comes to out of state relocation it can save you a lot of time and money. Shipping every item costs something, everything adds up, the time to pack it, the packing supplies, the price for shipping it with the truck from the movers, then the time to unload it and unpack it. This can be a long costly journey. This is why it is a great idea to go to every room in your home, check through all the lockers, drawers, wardrobes, etc. and decide what can stay. There are things that you can buy all new at your new home and that will be the affordable option for you than shipping the ones that you have. We help you out with all of this so you can have a joyful move at an affordable rate.
  • When you arrive in your new home, or business on the contrary – don’t purchase new things. Be aware of your options, Look at craigslist or go to garage sales. There may be items that are almost new which you could buy cheap or get free. There are things people have that are unused or they are even in their original packing, people just don’t want them and sell them or give them away.  Remember to have patience to collect all the things that you need in this cheap way.
  • Then when you finish clearing up your clutter, you can make a yard/ garage sale for all of that. It’s best to collect everything you won’t move, clothes, tools, electronics and so on and put them for sale. The great thing about this out of all affordable moving tips is that you can make some money out of that in order to cover part of your moving cost. Sales can be very helpful and efficient.
    You can find cheap packing supplies or replace the ones you need with something else – packing paper with magazines and newspapers or you can also get packing supplies with Affordable Moving And Storage
  • Afterwards look for cheap moving supplies. Think about neighbors, friends, colleagues who have recently moved out. You can also leave a message at the message board at work that you are collecting packing materials and supples left from other movings.  You can also use newspapers, magazines, sheets left from before – collect them as packing supplies to wrap things up. You can expand your approach in many ways. Use towels, bed linen and blankets instead of purchasing new packing materials. All towels you won’t be using can become handy when packing. Also Blankets are good to put in the truck between the furniture in there. And remember that there are many ways to get free and cheap moving boxes
  • Save from moving boxes. You can use less boxes if you fill up the drawers and the rest of the furniture you have with things you have. That way, you will use less moving boxes, so less to pack and unpack later on which saves time, too. Just have in mind that every item when filled in will be heavier to lift and move around.
  • Use up the food at home. Don’t throw away what is still eatable. Make a plan on what to eat so that you can consume all the food you have and not waste any money. That includes the frozen food, too. Once you know you are relocating think about how much time you will need to eat what you have already collected and follow your plan.
