House builder shares top five after-moving tips

To mark National Moving Day, Lowell Homes, based in Pembrokeshire, has shared five tips for the first day or two in a new home. Regional sales director at Lovell Homes, Suzie Hewitt, said that these tips help homebuyers settle into their new home.

1. Unpack essentials

Before the move, pack a box of essential items such as toiletries, bedding, a change of clothes, phone chargers and basic kitchenware. Unpack this box first.

2. Tackle one room at a time

Sort out one room at a time, rather than going from room to room in a disorderly manner.

3. Add personal touches

Sprinkle your own personality into the property through photos, artwork, and ornaments. Do this before unpacking everything to make the house feel like home.

4. Take a break and explore

There is no need to sort everything out on the first day. Take a break and go for a walk, bike ride or drive to explore the area surrounding the new home. Find the local shops, pubs, and cafés. If you have a dog, find a local park or green area for them to explore.

5. Celebrate

The final tip from Lowell Homes is to take time to celebrate the move. Have dinner in a nearby pub or restaurant, invite the neighbours in for a glass of champagne or simply order a takeaway meal for a relaxed family dinner.

Using a good removals service also helps the move go smoothly. For house removals in the Liverpool area, you can rely on us at Merseyside Movers & Storers.
