If you’ve moved into a New York City apartment before, chances are you had to learn a thing or two about downsizing, the hard way. For those of you about to move into your first NYC-apartment, or move into a smaller apartment in NYC, the experience CAN be stressful, frustrating, and overwhelming. However, it doesn’t HAVE to be any of these things. How, you ask? Keep reading to find out…
Downsizing: Small Apartment Moves
In the spirit of the holiday season, we’re sharing our expert knowledge to make your move to a smaller-sized apartment as graceful as possible. Here are some of our favorite industry tips and tactics:
Organize While You Pack: Staying organized throughout the packing process is a HUGE help when it comes time to move into your smaller place. We recommend checking out the KonMari Method to tidying up while you work on sorting through your belongings. This leads us to our next point…
Keep/Sell/Toss & Full-Service Junk Removal: The less belongings you own, the simpler your move will be. Start by sorting all your belongings into three piles, labeled “Keep”, “Toss”, and “Donate”. This will help you get a better idea of what items are coming with you to your new place.
For the items you’re ready to toss and donate, Shleppers offers NYC’s best deal on Junk Removal. What’s more—we’ll take some (or all) of the items you no longer need to a charitable organization of your choosing* at no additional cost. Doing so turns your downsizing experience into a rewarding and fulfilling act of charity that simultaneously lightens your load for your move!
Digitize Your Documents: A great way to make some space just in time for moving to your new place is to digitize important papers, documents, photos, books, and more. Converting your paper documents and saving them in the cloud saves time, space, and not to mention—the environment! Consider using Drop Box, OneDrive, Google Drive, or iCloud to store your paper docs.
