Start getting rid of these things gradually and leave only what you really use and want to keep for your new home. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you&#8217;ve done this, you can start to pack up the things you least need at the moment in labeled boxes so it\u2019s easy to find everything once you\u2019ve moved into your new place. Remember to label boxes that have fragile items in them, so that they\u2019ll be handled carefully during your move. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Continue packing in the order of items you use the least frequently to the most frequently until you get to the moment where you pack up your daily use items, which should be left until the last few days before the move. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember to pack and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/transport-in-madrid\/\"><b>transport<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> a box of things you will need on the first day in your <\/span><b>new home<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, including towels, bedding, pajamas, personal hygiene products, clothes for the next day and a few kitchen items for your first meals there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Related article: <\/span><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/districts-madrid\/\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The districts of Madrid<\/span><\/i><\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_7600\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/men.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7600\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-7600 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/men-300x162.jpg\" alt=\"moving company transports couch in plastic wrapping\" width=\"300\" height=\"162\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/men-300x162.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/men-768x414.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/men.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/men-640x345.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/men-810x437.jpg 810w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-7600\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Photo by Moving Simplified via VisualHunt<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If, due to the volume of personal items, you need to <strong>contract a moving company<\/strong> for your transition, consider the budget you have and are willing to invest in this service. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When considering this, it is also important that you keep in mind whether the stairs or elevator in your new place are wide enough for your furniture and other large items. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If not, you should contact a crane service, which might require the street below to be cut off temporarily so the crane can operate correctly and safely.
