Americans have a reputation for having too much stuff, and moving usually makes that reality painfully clear, especially when emptying an apartment with no elevator in Pittsburgh. A new guide from the relocation experts at Movers.com explains what to pack and what to discard when moving to a new address.

Discovering owners’ belongings during walk-throughs is one main reason buyers delay closings, according to Realtor.com. The latest packing guide from Movers.com can help customers avoid embarrassing delays and costly storage payments.

Statistics show that the United States has more self-storage units than any other country in the world. Storage industry data shows that between 50,000 and 60,000 self-storage facilities had been built in the country as of early 2023. Popularity is growing in places like Canada, the United Kingdom, Japan, and Australia, but America is home to roughly 90 percent of storage units in the world.

Movers.com's guide recommends households consider which items they will actually need when they arrive at their new space. Sorting through attics, junk drawers, closets, shelves, garages, and self-storage units is advised first.

Items used on a daily or weekly basis - such as toiletries, clothing, cookware, and linens - should definitely be packed, according to the guide. Sentimental items like photo albums, souvenirs and other special mementos should also be packed carefully. Important documents like birth certificates and social security cards should be easily accessible.

Getting rid of items that are no longer used or have no emotional value can cut down on moving costs and may recoup some money, according to the guide. Unwanted clothing and shoes, books, and toys can be safely donated to charity. Larger items like furniture, musical instruments, or sporting equipment can be sold. Old newspapers, magazines, paperwork, expired medications, and other outdated items can be thrown away.

Storage units may be a reasonable option for managing space temporarily, the guide recommends. These units are best used for out-of-season clothing, holiday decorations, and sentimental keepsakes.

Parting with items can be challenging, but paying to move unused items is a waste of space and money. Movers.com advises readers to systematically assess each room and determine what’s necessary.

Once items have been pared down, individuals can get obligation-free quotes for relocation services at Movers.com. The company fosters a network of hundreds of local, interstate, and international screened moving professionals. Each mover in the network is checked monthly to ensure customer satisfaction remains high.
