We moved & it wasn't traumatic!
Moving Day - Keeping Life's Momentum
OMG, we're so grateful that we know the right people!
For many people, moving is a big, ugly job, a traumatic event, & one of life's most stressful times. About a month ago, we moved from the main floor of a house into a townhouse. We didn't want to suffer the pain of our last move about 4 years ago by not losing momentum in our personal & business lives. So we did what most sane people might do ..... we enlisted some help.
We started by de-cluttering where it made sense to cut down on the volume of packing. We focused on clothing & books first. Everything we didn't want, hadn't used, or could truly enjoy in the future was donated. We donated 1/3 of our clothing & 2/3 of our books! Next, we shredded a ton of documents from old files we didn't have use for anymore. We emptied a lot of file cabinets & bankers boxes of paper that went to recycling. All this in only 30 focused minutes each evening for a week before our move. A lot less to have to pack & move!
Then we saved a ton of time collecting packing boxes by renting them. We hired an experienced Packing Team & Movers ..... & we were set to go!
Friday morning we had coordinated the rented moving boxes to arrive at the same time as the packers arrived. The entire place was packed by 3:30pm, allowing me time to clean up so I could meet Christine for a pub dinner out in time for Happy Hour!
Saturday morning the movers had us moved out into their 2 trucks by 2pm & moved into our new place by 7pm ..... all during daylight hours & no rain that day! (karma?)
Sunday morning had the Packers arrive at 9:30am to unpack us & were done by 2pm.
Monday morning saw the Box rental company retrieve their 100+ boxes.
THE PUNCHLINE: We worked & lived our lives right up until Thursday evening & were business operational & liveable on Monday morning! Didn't need to be a big, ugly job & it wasn't. Barely a speed bump & we didn't lose the great momentum we had going for us. We highly recommend this most civilized way to tame the trauma!
