Moving Tips
Now that you know what sets Poseidon Moving and Storage apart in terms of long-distance and local moving services, it’s time to let us start helping you prepare for your move to Kansas City! That being said, we know that a few useful moving tips can make even more of a difference in the ease of your move. Here’s a few of our top recommendations to make your move to Kansas City even easier!
The first moving tip that we have to offer is the recommendation to always use properly sized moving boxes. Place heavier items like books in smaller boxes and lighter items in larger boxes. Not only does this make it easier to organize your boxes as you prepare for your move but it also makes them much easier to lift and load into the moving truck. You should also be sure to pack heavier items on the bottom of each box and lighter items on the top in order to avoid damaging more fragile items.
Secondly, we highly recommend not packing certain items with other household belongings when preparing for your move to Kansas City. This is because some things can be hazardous during the moving process and should be left separately or disposed of before moving. While tools, painting equipment, and cleaning chemicals should be packed separately in clearly labeled boxes, you may also want to consider using plastic totes to avoid unwanted messes. Other items to pack separately include fire extinguishers, chlorine granules, auto batteries, and ammonia. Good luck!
