Things You Might Want to Leave Behind When Relocating
It’s tempting to take all your possessions
with you when moving home, but it’s often worth leaving some things behind. Now
is an ideal time to get rid of stuff that you haven’t used for years because
that way, you can look forward to living in a clutter-free property. The best
house removal companies can transport as many belongings as required, but you
might save money in the long run by using this opportunity to cut back.
At Rose Removals, we’re more than happy to
provide affordable storage solutions for Devon homeowners who would rather
avoid transporting all their items at once, and being located on The Station
Business Park in Lapford, North Devon makes us easy to reach. However, because
we can pack, transport and unload your possessions for you, there’s no need to
worry about heavy lifting or tight schedules.
By gifting to friends and family members,
donating to charity and selling things online, you can avoid transporting a
large volume of items and potentially contribute to the cost of relocating. Here
are some things we feel you should at least consider disposing of.
Do
You Need to Relocate with These Possessions?
As a Devon-based house removals company
that can ship household goods to many worldwide locations, we’ve come
face-to-face with countless homeowners wondering what items to take and which
to leave behind. Just some things that might not be worth taking include:
1.
Bulky Items
Do you need those books you’ve read multiple times
and DVDs you know all the lines to? You might benefit from selling those as
well as old laptops and games consoles instead of transporting them to your new
home.
2.
Bathroom Supplies
You may understandably wish to take expensive
fragrances with you, but avoid packing things that might have expired without
you realising (your cupboards will almost certainly contain out-of-date
products).
3.
Clothing
There could be dozens of outfits in those stacks of
clothing that you no longer wear, so you might consider donating them to
somebody who needs them.
4.
Furniture
Sofas, beds and wardrobes are large and heavy,
often contributing to a significant portion of the cost of house removals in Devon,
whether you’re moving to a different part of the country or from Coldridge to Eastington.
5.
Appliances
You might want to make a few upgrades when settling
into a new property, which may include getting rid of old appliances and
replacing them with modern, energy-efficient ones. If so, sell your unwanted
washing machine, dishwasher or fridge-freezer to bring down the cost of
relocating and house removals.
