You may be already panicking looking at all the stuff you have accumulated since you last moved. Packing can actually be a great time to clean, declutter and simplify your life.

Preparing yourself and your belongings for moving is important to staying safe and preventing unnecessary damage to your belongings.
Hiring Professional Movers
Most professional moving companies should be able to supply any necessary equipment such as sliders, blankets, dollies and trollies. When you book your movers, be sure to let them know what item you have so they know what equipment to bring along on moving day. You should also confirm that there are no extra fees associated with using their equipment, and ensure that all the fees are indicated in your moving contract before you sign.
