When Moving Long Distance, What NOT to take And What To Do With The Rest

Updated: Aug 21, 2023

When moving long distance, it's important to consider which items are worth transporting and which are not. Here are some things you should consider not moving long distance:

  1. Perishable items - These items, such as food or plants, may not survive a long journey and may spoil or die.

  2. Hazardous materials - Items such as chemicals, flammable liquids, or weapons are not allowed in moving trucks.

  3. Furniture that won't fit - If the furniture won't fit in your new home, it's not worth moving.

  4. Items with sentimental value only - While sentimental items can be hard to let go of, if they don't serve a practical purpose or have monetary value, they may not be worth moving.

Now, for the items you do decide to move, here are some tips:

  1. Make an inventory - Take an inventory of all your belongings to make sure nothing gets lost or left behind.

  2. Pack efficiently - Use appropriate packing materials to ensure your items don't get damaged during transport.

  3. Label everything - Label boxes and furniture pieces to make unpacking easier.

  4. Consider using a moving company - Moving companies have experience with long-distance moves and can make the process smoother.
