Moving is a headache, especially if you are moving to NYC–one of the greatest cities in the world. That’s why we came up with a few tips to help you with your move, whether you are moving to New York City or elsewhere.
Moving Tip #1: Be generous
Get rid of things by giving them away to friends and family. Books, clothes, toys, equipment, and yes, even those shoes that you love but never wear. You say you wear them all the time, but everybody, including you, knows you only wore them twice.
According to research, packing and unpacking is the most stressful task of moving; by ridding your home of these unused, space-occupying, dust-gathering items, you will help reduce the stress. We tend to accumulate a lot of things so this will make the moving process much easier and your friends will appreciate the gifts. Consider donating them to non-profits, but do not bring those items to your new home! Hoarding kills.
