There is no shame in accepting the fact that moving the entire domestic belongings from one place to another is an exhausting task to perform but simultaneously, it is also quite unsafe as you might go through unwanted injuries. It doesn’t matter if you have hired a professional mover and packer for the execution of your relocation, you can still get hurt by various means during the process of the same.

Therefore, you need to prevent yourself from getting into the harm’s way and you can achieve so by keeping the following points on mind –

1. Lift lightweight boxes – While packing your goods in the moving boxes, make sure the boxes do not weigh more than 22 kilograms. If you are unable to find out the exact weight of the boxes then try lifting them. If you are steady on your feet and do not feel strained while lifting, then your boxes are good to carry.

In addition, always remember to lift the boxes in a correct position i.e., avoid bending to lift the boxes. Instead, squat and lift with the help of your whole lower body.

2. Inspect the surroundings – Make sure to check the environment of your present home and the new home as well. Find out solutions for the objects which might cause hurdle during the time of relocation.

If you have staircases at the front, then make sure to mark them with a chalk so that it can be clearly visible to the staff of the packer and mover as they probably are not familiar with your home and might not pay much attention in the middle of the relocation process. Likewise, make use of traction mat when the floor of your home or pathway is wet or slippery to avoid falling while moving along with the heavy items.

3. Moving day precautions – Ensure wearing appropriate clothes and avoid saggy ones which might create problem during packing and lifting goods from one position to another. Also, make certain that you wear comfortable and strong shoes which have a good grip so that you don’t get slipped during the loading process.

Make sure to keep the heavy boxes separate from the light ones so that it gets easy for the mover to understand which boxes need special care.

If you have children or pet in your home, make them stay at the neighbor’s house so that they could remain out of trouble during the packing and moving procedure.

Do not forget to keep a first-aid box in handy and also fully-charged phone with you as you never know when you will need it.

Hence, following the aforementioned tips can save you from every kind of moving hassles for sure.
