Single and Moving? The 5 Best Ways to Move across Country on Your Own

Moving across the country will be a challenge no matter how you decide to undertake the task. You can do a few simple things to try and make it a little less stressful. Here are some of the best ways that you can move across the country when you’re on your own.

Space It Out

Start packing early so that you don’t feel overwhelmed. Sometimes the hardest part of anything is the amount of preparation that’s involved. Plan on spending an hour or two each night for the month before you’re scheduled to move. Use enough boxes so that your stuff will survive in transit. Another thing to consider is getting some help from your friends.

Consider Moving Alternatives

Look into other moving alternatives. For example, you can rent a pod and pack it yourself. Once you’ve filled the pod or something of a similar nature, you can have it shipped across the country. This will make the idea of the move a little less monumental.

Store It

You could always store your items until you’ve gotten settled across the country. This could be in the place that you’re leaving or the place that you’ve decided to move. For example, a company like National Self Storage—Denver offers you the convenience of being able to drive your moving truck right up to the unit.

Downsize Your Life

Limit the amount of items that you need to move. You can do this by getting rid of all of those things that have no place in your life. Sometimes, this can be a liberating experience deciding what actually has significance for you when you consider having to lug it across the country.

Pay for Assistance

Hire movers to help you through the process. This is probably one of the easiest, but also most expensive solutions. You may be able to get reimbursed for your moving expenses if you’re relocating due to work. Another solution is to just hire local movers on both sides of the country. You won’t be stuck having to rely on other people in your life to help you out.

The circumstances in your life will dictate the best and easiest solution for you to move across the country. Develop a budget so that you know what options are available for your consideration. To reduce your stress load, don’t sweat the small things. Moving will be exhausting, but it can also be extremely rewarding to start over again.
