这些是人们移动时犯的5个最大错误

当涉及我讨厌的事情时，moving排在那里，驱动器缓慢和做得好burgers。简而言之：移动是最糟糕的。

To help you survive your own box-filled hell, our editors have shared their solutions to these common moving problems below.

1. Waiting until the last minute to pack

Yes, packing isn't fun, but putting if off won't make your life easier. In fact, it'll make it way worse. The key to stress-free packing is getting organized as far in advance as you can.

Our smart home senior staff writer, Rachel Murphy, came up with a genius solution: "We made a spreadsheet to help us keep track of what items are in what boxes. For example, box No. 1 (clearly labeled on the outside) had bath towels, etc. It allowed us to quickly access the things we needed right away at our new location without having to unpack everything at once."

Another great piece of advice is to keep a separate box for essentials like toilet paper, a shower curtain, snacks, and tools (for setting up or taking apart furniture) that you might need your first night. And, do a thorough purge of everything you own before you even start packing. If you don't use it now, you won't use it in your new place.

2. Not being able to fit furniture in your new space

That oversized sectional looked great on Anthropologie's website when you ordered it—until it arrives and takes up the entire room. The easy fix? Measure (and double measure) all of the rooms in your new house or apartment before you order furniture. If you can't get into your new place ahead of time, ask your landlord or agent to send you floor plans so you can plan accordingly.

Remember that there's more to consider than just the room itself: “Measure the doorways of your new place to ensure everything will fit inside,” cautions Reviewed's former senior scientist Julia MacDougall. You may need to disassemble some pieces beforehand to get them in.

3. Doing everything yourself

我喜欢节省金钱as much as the next person. But sometimes in life, it's worth the extra cost to hire professionals—like when you're moving (or trying to highlight your hair blonde, but that's a story for another time).

如果您选择雇用我们的育儿编辑安娜·莱恩（Anna Lane），建议从188bet走地朋友和家人那里获得建议，这样您就不会遇到缺乏经验或更糟的是，不专业的人。事先比较一些不同公司的估计并提前询问任何额外的费用，这也很明智。

4.无法负担搬家费用

好像搬家不会变得更糟，从雇用搬运工到预订U-Haul, it can costa lot金钱（因为谁不喜欢为您一生中最痛苦和压力的经历付出代价？！）。幸运的是，如果正确计划，您可以通过多种方法可以减少这些费用。

For example, while working with a moving company is highly recommended, you can save money by packing your things yourself (movers will often charge inflated labor rates or higher-than-average prices for packing supplies). If you plan on getting aU-Haul，不要等待最后一刻保留它，并确保您选择适合所有物品的最小尺寸，这样您最终就不会为未使用的空间付费。

5.新家具迟到

“I love sleeping on anair mattressfor weeks,” said no one ever. But that's what a lot of people end up doing (that or eating dinner on the floor) because they don't time their new furniture deliveries correctly.

Order your pieces预先确保他们将在搬家的一天或在您的最初几天内到达您的新地方。虽然家具的交付通常需要4到12周（由于供应链问题而导致的几天可能更长的时间），但请记住，自定义订单可能需要更长的时间。

You can also arrange store pick-up at many furniture stores if you order online, so you can get your furniture at your convenience.
