10 Essential Tips for a Stress-Free Home Move in Leicester

🏡 Top 10 Tips for a Stress-Free Move in Leicester

Here are our top 10 tips to help you stay calm, organised, and ready for your big move.

1. Start Planning Early

As soon as you know your move date, start planning. Create a moving checklist and timeline so you can tackle tasks bit by bit rather than leaving everything until the last minute.

2. Declutter Before You Pack

Moving is the perfect opportunity to get rid of things you no longer need. Sell, donate, or recycle unwanted items — you’ll save time, space, and money.

3. Label Everything Clearly

Label each box with the room it belongs to and a brief list of what’s inside. This makes unpacking a breeze and helps your movers know where to place things in your new home.

4. Book a Trusted Local Removals Team

Hiring a reliable removals company in Leicester (like us!) takes a huge weight off your shoulders. We know the local area, parking rules, and how to move efficiently.

5. Use High-Quality Packing Materials

Avoid breakages by using sturdy boxes, bubble wrap, packing paper, and strong tape. We offer professional packing materials — and even a full packing service if you want us to handle it all.

6. Pack an Essentials Box

Keep a box aside with things you’ll need right away: kettle, tea bags, toilet roll, phone chargers, basic tools, and a change of clothes. You’ll thank yourself later!

7. Update Your Address

Make a list of all the places that need your new address — banks, utilities, GP surgery, DVLA, and so on. You can even use Royal Mail’s redirection service for peace of mind.

8. Think About Parking Access

Let your removals team know about any parking restrictions or tight access in advance. If needed, arrange permits through Leicester City Council to avoid fines or delays.

9. Take Photos of Your Electronics

Before unplugging your TV, broadband, or games console, take a quick photo of the cable setup. It'll make reconnecting everything much easier in your new place.

10. Stay Calm and Let the Pros Help

Moving day can be intense, but if you've planned ahead and hired a good team, you'll be just fine. Let us handle the heavy lifting while you focus on settling into your new home.
