Whether you’re thinking of moving home, you want to move some of your furniture around, or you’re helping a friend to move, knowing how to lift a box correctly is a crucial skill. Moving home is stressful, but it’s a very positive side effect that you’ll actually be getting quite a good workout in the process – as long as you don’t put your back out or drop the item on your toes and smash it that is!

You’ve chosen a new home, selected a local moving company in New Jersey, and now comes the task of packing for the move. There are 3 important things you should remember that will save you a lot of time and frustration later:

• Collect all the materials (boxes, tape, paper) you’ll
need to pack.

• Don’t put packing off until the last minute.

• Stay organized!

MOVING! The very thought of it can send chills down our spine and can cause us to break out into a cold sweat. Experts say that any kind of “change” creates “stress”. Moving, (and especially if we are relocating to a new city or state), represents a huge change and naturally brings a great amount of stress along with it. This can be a double whammy, because stress can lead to a lack of energy and motivation. Many of us tend to procrastinate during stressful periods of our lives.
