10 Moving Tips for an hassle-free relocation

Ten practical ways to keep documents, essentials, children’s items and appliances organised during an international move.

We know that, with a hundred activities and a thousand things to consider in relocating to another country, it tends to be hard to know where to start. Regardless of whether you're moving for work, with the family, or arranging an upbeat retirement, here are some moving hacks that can make your moving as effortless as possible.

  1. Having familiar toys can help children to feel safe in the new location, for this reason consider packing some in your travel bags.
  2. Keep your passport, a photocopy of it and important travel docs all together in a separate place to take with you.
  3. Keep all your important things that are not to be packed in one place. We advise store them in the bathroom.
  4. Keep a copy of your prescriptions (if in need) for your new doctor in the destination place. Pack these yourself.
  5. Always check your most important documents are in a safe place before the packing starts.
  6. Keep clothes and basic travel items all together in your suitcases and hand luggage bags.
  7. Keep toiletries and essentials out of the packing, If the process takes more than one day.
  8. If you want to pack yourself any personal items during the packing, feel free to ask our crew members for a " personal box".
  9. Place a bowl with a couple of unused teabags and half a lemon inside your washing machine, fridge and freezer (once turned off), it will help to remove any excess moisture before packing.
  10. Back up important files or pictures on a USB stick and take that with you.
