Decluttering For Winter

The clocks have gone back and winter is now well and truely here! With the weather turning wetter and colder now is the time to tackle those indoor tasks that you have been putting off over the summer..... Its time to declutter! The cupboards are full and wardrobes are bursting so the first question we often get asked at storage stockport is where do I start? For this reason we have listed some tips:

Work through room by room - Trying to tackle the whole house in one go will be too demanding and if you approach it this way you will not get the task completed properly.

Be ruthless - Get rid of anything and everything you no longer use

Sort - Everything you want to keep sort out and place then where you will remember.

Preparing For Your Next Move

Moving is one of the most stressful periods so here at storage stockport we have put together some helpful tips:

Make Lists - When looking at moving we strongly recommend you make a structured list. This will help you keep ontop of things you need to do when moving and help keep you organised.

Declutter - Don't waste time moving things you don't need

Don't keep hold of it - Don't overvalue items. You need to be ruthless! If you won't use it or don't need it then bin it!

Contact your suppliers - When moving it is essential you contact all of your utility suppliers to advise them of your move.

Removal Companies - Take time to work out the cheapest and most productive way of moving your household items. In the long run hiring a van may actually cost you more due to the time you will spend loading and driving it. A specialst removal company maybe a better option.
