Who can’t use some moving tips when they’re packing up their whole life for a new home? If you’re among thousands of people who have picked up and moved their family to a new home or a new community, you have fresh memories of some of the ups and downs or thrills or frustrations of moving.
Drawing from personal experience, I know there are lots of ways to help make your household move easier and more smooth. Read here for help to get your life, and your possessions, organized for a peaceful and exciting move.
Make a list.
Write everything down! You’ll thank yourself later. Before you pack even one box, create a simple record keeping system. Create a computer-printed list of numbers with a space to write the contents. Or have a spiral-bound notebook for the job. You’ll place a number on EVERY box you pack and list the contents on your list. Don’t put the list down unless it’s in a place you’ll call Packing Central. This is where you’ll find your labels, marking pens, box tape, and other supplies. When describing the box contents, be specific — “A-D files” is better than “files”, and “Tulip dishes” rather than “misc. kitchen”.
Have plenty of supplies.
Don’t make me say this twice– you’ll need LOTS of boxes–probably more boxes than you think, and having enough boxes will make your life easier! (If you buy your boxes from a moving company, you can always return unused boxes for a refund. If you got them free from the grocery, just toss any leftovers.) Have about 10 boxes set aside to use for last minute items on moving day, such as bedding, clothing, and cleaning supplies. You’ll need strong plastic packing tape to close up the boxes securely. Use unprinted newsprint (newspaper can stain your items) or packing paper or bubble wrap to wrap and cushion household good. Again, you’ll need lots more supplies than you think, so get extra so the packing can go smoothly. Return any unused supplies after the truck is packed.
Utilize wardrobe boxes.
These tall boxes are perfect for bulky, lightweight items such as comforters, pillows, and blankets, as well as clothes that need to remain hanging. Call your mover to ask the width of the wardrobe boxes they’ll be bringing. Then measure the clothes in your closets (including coat closets) to see how many wardrobe boxes you’ll need. You can also use them for closet storage boxes, shoe boxes, and other bulky items such as fabric bolts, large baskets, or gift wrap tubes.
Don’t make the boxes too heavy to lift, however. One mover told the story of someone who put a bowling ball in a wardrobe box! When the box was lifted off the truck the bottom gave way, sending the bowling ball on a wild ride down the ramp, across the street to the gutter, then down a hill where it finally came to rest in a roadside ditch. (Is that a strike or a spare?)
Strategize wardrobe box use.
Moving companies will be happy to deliver boxes ahead of your moving day. Or if you’re doing the move yourself, get things organized as early as possible. A few days before your move, fill some sturdy handled shopping bags with bulky closet items such as shoes, sweaters, belts, and jeans. On moving day, fill the bottom of the wardrobe boxes with some of the shopping bags, then add your hanging clothing. Pack hanging items tightly so things won’t move around and fall off of hangers. Finally, cover the shoulders of your clothes (a dry cleaning bag works well), then add a few purses or sweaters on top. You’ll have fewer boxes, and closet items remain together. Also, the shopping bags will make it easier to retrieve your belongings from the bottoms of a tall wardrobe box.
Color coordinate.
Designate a color for each room in the new home, such as yellow for kitchen, orange for dining room, etc. Apply colored stickers on the box near the box number. In your new home. Put a matching sticker on the door to each room. The movers will know where to put everything when they arrive at the destination. It’s also helpful to post a big sign on the wall in the room where you want boxes stacked, (“Boxes here please”) to keep them out of furniture and traffic areas.

Keep things together.
Insist on keeping things together when you or the movers are packing boxes. Keep bookends with books, light bulbs with lamps, and extension cords with appliances. Small, loose parts can be attached to the item they belong to with tape or placed in small envelopes — to keep picture hooks with pictures, shelf brackets with a bookcase, a special wrench and bolts with the wall unit. Keep larger corresponding items (such as a cable TV cord) in resealable bags, and tape these to the underside or back of the item. As a backup, have a “Parts Box” open on the kitchen counter and fill it with cables, cords, parts, pieces, brackets, or nails that are removed from any items of furniture. Keep this box with you, or mark it well with a rainbow of colored stickers so it can be easily located on move-in day.
Pack ahead.
Anything you can pack ahead will save you time on moving day. If it’s summer, get your winter clothes out of the way. You don’t really need 5 radios or TV’s around your house for the last few days there. Box up your shampoo and extra toothpaste and live out of a travel cosmetic case for the last week or two. Pare down cooking utensils and food supplies to bare essentials. Wastebaskets can also be packed (put things in them!) while you switch to using plastic grocery bags (hang them on a cabinet door or door handle to collect trash.)
Consolidate cleaning supplies.
If you must clean your old place after moving out, put together a kit of basic cleaning supplies and rags. Clean anything possible ahead of time (the inside of kitchen cupboards, the oven, windows, etc.), and if possible, vacuum each room as movers empty it.
Use your luggage.
Fill luggage and duffle bags with clothing, sheets, towels, and paper goods. Even for local moves you’ll be able to quickly spot your navy suitcase holding your favorite sweaters, whereas “Box #189” might remain elusive for days.
Safeguard valued items.
It’s a good idea to keep valuable possessions, such as silverware, collections, or antiques, with you. If you have a long move and no room in your car, bury the items in a box titled “Misc. from kitchen pantry”. Either way, check your homeowner’s insurance to see how you are covered during the move, and if you need additional insurance from the mover. Also, find out what paperwork (receipts, appraisals, and photos) you might need to file a claim in case of loss.
Keep important papers with you.
Your list of “important” papers might include: birth certificates, school records, mover estimates, new job contacts, utility company numbers, recent bank records, current bills, phone lists, closing papers, realtor info, maps, and more. Don’t leave these with the mover. Keep them with you!
Personal boxes.
Use brightly colored storage tote boxes, one for each person. Let each family member fill theirs with items they’ll want ‘right away’ in the new home — a set of sheets, a towel, a couple of extension cords, a phone, nightlights, address book, pens and paper, keys, kleenex, and travel cosmetic case, and so on.
Moving may not be the most fun you’ve ever had, but planning ahead will go a long way toward making the process bearable.

How to Reduce the Stress of Moving to Switzerland
Moving to Switzerland can be a fantastic time, but it can also be incredibly stressful. All the legal processes can seem like a minefield, and then you’ve got to think about the reality of living there. But there are ways that you can reduce the stress of moving to Switzerland, and these are just a few of them.
• Be prepared. This is probably the most important piece of advice that anyone will be able to give when moving to Switzerland. You need to start planning well in advance of your desired move date, as there’s no way that you can relocate on a whim as there are far too many things to take care of.
• Learn the language. This will make the transition as smooth as possible, as if you’ve spent the time to learn it the locals will be more accommodating and you’ll find it easier to become part of their culture.
• Make sure you have translators on your side when sorting out the details. Although you may be learning the language, it’s still advisable to have a translator on-hand so you don’t have to worry about miscommunication when dealing with, for example, house sales and visas.
• Book removals services well in advance. Professional services can get booked up weeks in advance, and if you don’t want to be in Switzerland with your possessions in the UK make sure to book early.
So, although moving to Switzerland can be stressful, if you bear in mind these tips you’ll find the whole process far easier. Here at European Removal Experts we understand what you’re going through, so come to us to see how we can help.

Moving to Brescia
In northern Italy there is the Lombarty region, and there is where Brescia is located. The town is situated at the foot of the Alps and it ranks as second largest city in Lombardy after its capital, Milan.
Brescia is the administrative capital of one of the largest provinces in Italy, namely the Province f Brescia and has been a significant regional centre for a long time now. Brescia has kept rather well preserved several medieval and Roman monuments and even an outstanding castle.
Brescia has a large industrial area, actually ranked as third-largest in Italy that focuses on automotive and mechanical engineering and machine tools. The city is well known for its firearm manufacturers namely Fabarm and Beretta. The companies that you find in this town are mostly small ones with family management and some mediums sized ones. The town does have a major employer in the financial sector and it is a rather famous tourist location thanks to the closeness of the Alps and two beautiful lakes, Lake Garda and Lake Iseo.
Brescia has a characteristic that was passed down from Roman times and which is the way how the old town is rectangular and how the streets intersect at 90 degrees angles. The portion that is surrounded on all sides by the medieval walls is bigger than the space occupied by the Roman town. Only the northeaster quarter of the old town was occupied by the Roman town.
One of the places that need to be visit is the Plazza del Foro as that is the place of the Roman-time forum. There is a temple complex that was discovered in 1823 as it was built on top another temple of a smaller size is supposed to be the Capitolium of Brescia. When unearthing the temple a winged Victory statue made out of bronze was found hidden away for the sole purpose of protecting it from the plundering that often took place in those times.
Some time ago, the Brescia Roman museum was housed by the Capitolium, but later it was moved to Santa Giulia complex, which was a former nunnery. The convent was run by the daughter of King Desiderius during the Lombard domination, namely the Princess Anselperga and it was quite powerful in those times.
There are many other Roman vestiges still visible but not all are open to visitors. For example there are barely sufficient remnants of the curia, which is a building supposed to have been a basilica, just on the north side of the Forum Square.
The Roman theatre can be found at the eastern side of the Capitolium. In ancient times, the theatre was attached to the Capitolium. On the slopes of Cidneo Hill a palace was built in the Renaissance time but over time the building slid and eventually covered the Cepitolium-theatre area in totality. As a result to that, only part of the theatre can be seen.
The monastery complex of san Salvatore – Santa Giulia and the archaeological area of the Roman Forum are officially a UNESCO World Heritage Site and they appertain to a group named the Longobards in Italy. Places of the power (568-774 A.D.) which is comprised of 7 such locations.
When staying in Brescia, there are some major location you should visit for a better understanding of the city’s history and charm. One such location is the Piazza della Loggia that evokes a Renaissance style, together with the related loggia, which is the current town hall. Then there is the Doumo Vecchio meaning old cathedral and which you might have heard of it under the name of La Rotonda. This cathedral lures people with a Romanesque church that has a circular shape and near the entrance there is a sarcophagus of Berardo Maggi made of pink Veronese marble. Various famous paintings can be found in the structure, such as the “Feast of the Paschal Lamb” and “Eli and the Angel”; paintings by Alessandro Bonvicino, Girolamo Romanino, Francesco Maffei and others.
You can also visit the Duomo Nouvo and the Broletto which is the medieval Town Hall, the Renaissance style church of Santa Maria dei Miracoli and Sr. Francis of Assisi which adopt a Romanesque-Gothic style and many other breathtaking and amazing locations. People who visit there remain forever captivated by the atmosphere and the beautiful views and many decide to move to Brescia. If you’re one who want to do it too, we can help you.

You’ll be on a Roll with a Swiss Job
It’s easy to see why Switzerland is an attractive proposition for anyone who is looking for a job abroad. The Swiss have a high standard of living, and as they are not a member of the European Union, they are free from many of the restrictions imposed by Brussells on member states. But before you rush into it and start the process of moving to Switzerland, there are some things you should be aware of.
Moving abroad to start a new life throws up many obstacles, whether you are moving to France or moving to Germany or any other country for that matter, and it would be in your best interests to find out as much as you can about the country before you attempt to move there. First of all you need to consider the language. Although English is widely spoken in Switzerland, the main languages are French, German and Italian, so if you are proficient in one or more of these tongues, your chances of securing a job will be increased.
If you are intent on moving to Switzerland, you have probably read the official line which suggests that it is difficult to find a job there. If so, you can relax a little because the reality tends to be a little different from the official Government line.
One of the major bonuses if you do manage to find a job is that Swiss law dictates that foreign workers must receive the same conditions and salary as their own citizens!
Retiring To The Sun
Regardless of how the pound and the Euro behave there are thousands of British couples who decide to pack up and move to France when they retire. And who can blame them when the pace of living is a little slower, the food is better and in many areas the weather is better throughout the year. Settling into a new country and a new way of life is actually far easier if you have your own things round you so generally when the retirees go abroad they will take the contents of their homes with them.
Moving to France with your own furnishings can be far more cost effective than buying new when you get there and certainly means that the feel of being home can be created immediately. A specialist removal company, like us at European Removal Experts, will take any hassle out of the move and deliver to your new home at a date to suit you rather than us. Our wagons are helping people moving to France every week and we can even offer to move part-loads if you don’t want to take everything when you move.
If the property that you are moving to in France is not immediately habitable we can arrange to store your possessions in the interim so that it can be delivered as and when you are ready to receive it, after all many people buy properties that they are going to either renovate or at least bring up to date. When you are moving to France using the right removal company can make a huge difference to the amount of stress you feel so do make sure that you pick one that has plenty of experience and knows the ropes so that everything goes smoothly to help you ease into your new life.
Going Dutch
If you are moving to Holland and you are intending to find a job when you get there, the first thing to say is Good Luck! As with most countries at the moment, finding work isn’t as easy as it used to be just a couple of years ago, so if you are moving to Holland, or moving to France for that matter, it’s probably best to find employment before you leave. Having said that, if you are moving to Holland and are prepared to put the work in to find a job, there are a couple of ways you can look for work.
The public employment service – or the CWI, which is the Centre for Work and Income – plays a huge role in the Dutch labour market as they help people find jobs in a similar way to the JobCentre here in the UK.
The staff at the CWI are very involved and will give as much help as you ask for when looking for a job, whether you are Dutch or moving to Holland from another country.
To get help from the CWI you need the equivalent of our national insurance number. Every Dutch citizen obtains a personal registration number, called a SOFI-nummer, at the age of fourteen. Those moving to Holland can get a SOFI-nummer at the local tax office.
The bottom line is that, when it comes to moving to Holland, you will find the same problems – and solutions – as you will find here when you are looking for a job, so good luck!
Moving to Aquitaine
Many have chosen over the years to move to Aquitaine also known as Guienne in the south-west part of metropolitan France. Aquitaine is situated along the Pyrenees mountain range and the Atlantic Ocean. The city has five departments, namely Lot et Garonne, Landes, Dorogne, Gironde and Pyrenees-Atlantiques and it was once a duchy and a kingdom whose boarders significantly fluctuated in the Middle Ages.
Until the 1453, when the Hundred Years’ War ended, Aquitaine was kept as an English town, but then it was annexed to France. Many might know the city under the name of Guyenne as it was cold until the French Revolution.
The Protestant Huguenots use the city as a stronghold during the 16th and 17th century, and because the Huguenots were persecuted by the Roman Catholic Church, they called upon the English crown for assistance.
In Aquitaine there are many locations that attract tourists and locals alike, and the town is well known for its many successful sport teams.
The city is the home to famous football teams such as Pau FC and FC Libourne-Saint-Seurin and even rugby teams out of which there are the SU Agen and US Dax. The city even has one of the most successful basketball clubs in France, the Elan Bearnais Pau-Orthez. There are various sport activities that take place in Aquitaine such as bull-fighting and major Surfing Championships are hosted on its coast.
There are also famous locations that are worth every minute of your time, such as the Cordouan Lighthouse that is recognised as a historic monument, measuring up to 68 meters in height, and which keeps watch at the Gironde Estuary. The lighthouse is said to have been standing since the Middle Ages.
Another romantic location that can keep you dreaming is the route from the Notre Dame chapel, to the lantern room and then to the King’s apartment also known under the name of Versailles of the Sea and which measures 311 steps, is well-known to the locals and internationally.
If you’re a lover of history, the many streets and museums found in the Bordeaux will offer you unforgettable experiences. Bordeaux is the capital of the region Aquitaine. Along with the Gallo-Roman amphitheatre vestiges called Palais Gallen, to the CAPC which offer contemporary exhibitions. The city also has facades dating back to the 18th century and situated along the quaysides that offers the city an exciting atmosphere and charm. Bordeaux is on the official list of world heritage sites of the UNESCO since 2007.
Saint Emilion is a commune in the Gironde department and it also presents to the public a medieval monolithic church registered as a World Heritage as well.
There are many places to visit for a chance to enjoy yourself, such as the Dune du Pilat as well as the Bay of Arcachon which are a must see for everyone who ever passes by there.
There is also the castle named Chateau de Bonaguil in Lot-et-Garonne. The fortified castle was built in the 13th century and expanded until the 18th and it’s been listed as a historic monument which has been well-preserved. The castle follows the military techniques history and it has impressive proportions.
The fortified village in Perigord named the Monpazier and La Roque-Gadeac are members of the Les Plus Beaux Villages de France association, meaning they are some of the most beautiful villages in France.
If you like to party you can even find that here, in Sarlat, where all of the charms of Perigord assemble, and by mixing dynamism with traditionalism it offers everything from cinema and music festivals to truffle markets for your enjoyment. Close to this there is also the site, dating back to prehistoric times, of the Valley of Humanity. All in all you can find everything you need or want in Aquitaine so don’t hesitate to follow your heart. Don’t worry about all the packing and moving because we are here to help you.
We provide a cost effective and reliable service to you. Be it a small or a large number of boxes that needs moving, we can arrange collection of your belongings and relocation, as well as Storage, all only under the best conditions and with highly Qualified Professionals Removers.

Reasons to Relocate
These days, relocation is on the rise. It isn’t hard to see why either as moving abroad can be a fantastic decision, and if you’re thinking of moving yourself here are a few reasons to tip the scales.
• The food. England isn’t always known for its top-class food, but France certainly is. All you gourmets out there will be in your element if you considered moving to France, and you can experience the delights of French cuisine every single day.
• The scenery. We do have some spectacular scenery in the UK, but can it really rival the Alps? If you have a love of skiing or of breathtaking views then moving to France or Switzerland could well be for you.
• The culture. You’ve lived in the UK all your life, so you know what it’s all about. But are you familiar with the cultures of the Netherlands, Switzerland or Germany? If you’d like to experience something completely different, then moving to Holland could be a great idea.
• The way of life. Britain is an incredibly fast paced society, and sometimes it’s nice to just sit back and take stock of everything. By relocating abroad, perhaps by relocating to Holland or Switzerland, you’ll be able to enjoy a much more peaceful way of life – particularly if you choose somewhere off the beaten track.
These are just a few reasons that you should relocate, and there are many more besides. So what are you waiting for? Pick your country and start your new life abroad, and remember to get in touch with us here at European Removal Experts to make the whole process as stress-free as possible.
Holland’s Hidden Gems
The Netherlands is one of the most unique and memorable holiday destinations on the whole planet – let alone Europe. Therefore, anybody that decides to take the plunge by moving to Holland, will find that they are never stuck for amazing places to visit and things to do!
Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands, is a famous holiday destination. Whilst it may have a reputation for stag weekends and red light districts there is actually much more to the city than this, making it one of the most culturally fascinating locations on the planet. For example, you might want to chill out in one of Amsterdam’s many coffee houses, or take a boat ride on one of its famous canals.
Anyone moving to Holland will never be more than a couple of hours train ride from the capital. However, whilst Amsterdam might be the cultural heart of the Netherlands, Holland is much more than its capital, and there is plenty to do and see outside of Amsterdam.
For example, if you want to avoid the hustle and bustle of Amsterdam but still want to experience a city that is quintessentially Dutch, then you’ll absolutely love Utrecht, which is a favourite holiday destination amongst the natives. It is an especially idyllic destination for anybody that loves history, and as the oldest city in Holland and the former imperial residence, it is a destination that is absolutely packed with cultural and historical intrigue – an absolute must visit for anybody relocating to Holland.
This is just the tip of the iceberg, and Holland is a country that is gull of things to see and do for all tastes, and anyone lucky enough to be moving to Holland will encounter a unique country that their bound to fall in love with!
