Anyone who has had to move to new apartment, the feeling of “prostration” that arises when looking at numerous things in closets, bedside tables and shelves is well known. It’s not for nothing that moving is “equal to one fire” - some things are lost, some get broken and broken on the road, and some simply disappear somewhere in an unknown way. There is no need to talk about the amount of effort and nerves expended.

Here are the main secrets of a proper move!

Preparing to move – what to do first?

The most common mistake people make when moving is to pack their things at the last minute. It would seem that “everything will be done in time!”, but - alas and ah - the result of getting ready in the last hours before the car arrives is always equally deplorable.

Therefore, it is better to start preparing in advance.

About a month before the planned move, the most important things to do are:

• Terminate all contracts (note - with the landlord, with companies providing cable TV, telephone, Internet services, etc.) so that in the new apartment they do not demand money from you for services that continue to be provided in the old one under existing contracts.
• Throw away everything you don't need , and everything that could interfere with the new owners.
• Clearly define the moving date , enter into an agreement with the appropriate moving company and inform those who will help you move to a new home.
• Sell ​​furniture (clothes, washing/sewing machine, other things) that you don’t want to take with you, but which still look quite decent. It’s better not to set high prices, so that later you don’t have to leave these things in the old apartment for free. It’s better to let them “fly away” at a modest price than for no one to buy them at all. And remember: if you haven’t used an item for more than six months, it means you don’t need it - feel free to get rid of it in any convenient way.

One week before moving:

1. We pack all the things that you will not need in the near future.
2. Throw away the excess.
3. We begin to sort out things, food and furniture in the kitchen.
4. We buy disposable plates/forks to easily remove all dishes from the kitchen.
5. We connect the Internet to the new apartment so that on the day of the move we don’t frantically call companies for this purpose, running between boxes with a useless router.
6. We clean carpets and wash curtains (save yourself the effort in a new place), and also rewash items that require it.
7. We do general cleaning in the new apartment so as not to waste time on it after moving.

The day before the move:

• We send the children to grandma (friends).
• Defrosting the refrigerator.
• We deal with the keys to old and new housing ( mailboxes, garages, gates, etc.).
• We take meter readings (note: we take photographs).
• We collect the remaining things.

7 secrets of preparing for a move that will make your life and the preparations easier

• Revision. Moving is a great way to get rid of excess clutter. When you start sorting things to pack them for moving, immediately put a large box “to throw away” or “to give to neighbors.” Surely, you have things (clothes, tiles, lamps, toys, etc.) that you do not need in your new apartment. Give them to those in need and don’t carry extra junk into your new apartment. Toys can be donated to an orphanage, decent items can be sold on appropriate websites, and old blankets/rugs can be taken to a dog shelter.
• Box with documents. We collect it especially carefully so that we can take it with us in the car on moving day. Place all the documents you have in folders, label them and put them in one box. Naturally, this should not be done the day before the move.
• Box “1st necessity”. That's how we label it. In this necessary box, when you move, you can easily find a first aid kit, toothbrushes and toilet paper, a set of replacement clothes for each family member, the most necessary products(sugar, salt, coffee/tea), towels, pet food and other important things.
• Box with valuables. Here we put all our gold with diamonds, if any, and other valuable items that are expensive or have other value for you personally. You should also take this box with you (we don’t shove it into the general “pile” in the truck, but take it with us into the cabin).
• Disassemble the furniture. Don’t rely on chance and don’t be too lazy to take it apart, so as not to cry over a torn sofa, a broken table and chips on a rare chest of drawers. Old furniture There is no point in disassembling chipboard and taking it with you - just give it to your neighbors or leave it near the trash heap (whoever needs it will take it himself).
• Don't make any major purchases in the week before moving. Don’t stock up on groceries either – it’s extra weight and space in the truck. It is better to replenish the bins in a new place.
• Prepare food the day before moving day (you won’t have time to cook!) and pack it in a cooler bag. Nothing inspires you in a new place after moving like a delicious dinner.

Collecting and packing things for moving - boxes, bags, tape

It is almost impossible to collect the things that you have accumulated in your old apartment even in 1 year in 1 day.

That's why perfect time for "start" - a week before the move. The most important thing when packing is packaging.

Therefore, we start with boxes and other items for a comfortable move:

1. Looking or buying cardboard boxes (preferably durable and with holes for easy carrying). Most often, boxes are given away for free in hypermarkets or local stores (ask store administrators). Assess the volume of your things and take boxes according to this volume. On average, it takes about 20-30 large boxes to pack items from a 2-room apartment in which a large family with pets lives. It is not recommended to take giant boxes - they are inconvenient to carry and difficult to lift, in addition, they often break under the weight of things.
2. Don't spare money on wide, high-quality tape! You'll need a lot of it, and not just to seal the boxes. And preferably with a dispenser, then the work will go much faster.
3. Also, you can’t do without cardboard “spacers” (newspaper, wrapping paper), twine, regular stretch film and a pack of clear bags.
4. Special film with “pimples” , which everyone loves to click, we buy in large quantities.
5. Multi-colored markers and stickers will also help.
6. To pack furniture you will need thick fabric (old sheets, curtains, for example), as well as thick film (like for greenhouses).
7. For heavy items we select bags and suitcases (the boxes may not be able to support them), or we place the weights in small and strong boxes, and then carefully secure them with tape and twine.

General work plan:

• We reinforce all boxes with good tape, paying special attention to special attention bottom of the container. You can also make handles from it if there are no holes on the boxes themselves (or you can make these holes yourself with a stationery knife).
• We allocate a separate room (or part of it) for packed items.
• We buy a notebook for notes, where there will be all the information on accounts, movers, counters and the things themselves.

Note:

If you wear suits, you'll be glad to know that there are cardboard "closets" for safely transporting expensive items directly on hangers.

How to move and not forget anything - lists of things, labeling boxes and much more

In order not to spend a painfully long time looking for clothespins or tights in all the boxes in a new apartment, which no one ever sorts right away (usually this takes from a week to a month, and for those who are especially lucky - up to a year), Use the rules of proper packing:

• We mark the boxes with stickers and markers. For example, red for the kitchen, green for the bathroom, etc. Don't forget to duplicate each box in a notepad.
• Be sure to put a number on the box (on each side of the box, so that later you don’t have to turn it around looking for the number!) and duplicate it in a notebook along with a list of things. If you are not shy about movers and are not afraid that “things will be stolen,” then the list of things can be glued to the box. In your notebook you should have all the boxes with all the lists of things. Numbering the boxes is also useful because in a new place it will be easier for you to check whether all things have been brought into the apartment.
• Lifehack: so as not to look for clothespins and washing powder, pack them straight into the drum washing machine. Tea and sugar can be placed in a teapot, and a pack of coffee can be placed in a box with a Turkish coffee grinder. You can put bedding, bowls and pet food in a cat carrier. And so on, with other things.
• When storing wires from equipment and gadgets, try not to confuse them. In a separate box - a scanner with wires, in another - a computer with its own wires, in separate packages there are phones and other gadgets - each with its own charger. If you are afraid of getting confused, immediately take a photo of the area where the wires connect to the equipment. This cheat sheet can make your life easier after moving.
• Ship bed linen separately with towels and blankets and pillows.
• Don't forget to have a separate box for tools. and small things necessary for repairs, you will need it almost immediately after moving.

Apartment moving – preparing furniture for transportation

Don’t rely on “strong” furniture and “caring” movers.

If your furniture is dear to you, then take care of its safety before moving.

• Everything that comes apart is disassembled, packaged and labeled. For example, we disassemble a table into parts, pack each one in a special thick paper or cardboard ( ideal option– bubble wrap), mark each part with the letter “C” (table). We put the accessories from the table into a separate bag, twist it and secure it to one of the parts. It’s ideal if you can secure all the parts together or put them in narrow boxes. Don't forget the instructions! If they are still there, put them in a bag with accessories to make it easier to assemble the furniture later. Place keys for furniture and other tools for quick assembly in the “1st necessity” box (described above).
• We wrap sofas and armchairs with thick fabric , cover with thick film on top and wrap with tape. We do the same with mattresses.
• We wrap all handles on doors and drawers cling film or foam rubber so as not to scratch other things.
• If you don’t take out the drawers from the chest of drawers (desk) , then be sure to secure them so that they do not fall out when carrying. Also fix all the doors on the furniture - on the kitchen, etc.
• All glass and mirrors must be removed from the furniture and packaged separately. . They are usually the first to break if owners leave them in closets.

If you are sending things to another city by container, then pay special attention to packing furniture and boxes!

Moving to a new apartment and pets – what do you need to remember?

Of course, the ideal option is to send pets and children to relatives during the move. Firstly, it will be easier for parents, and secondly, it will protect children and young animals from accidental injuries.

But if this is not possible, then use the “memo” on moving with pets:

1. Don't swear at your pets. For them, moving in itself is stressful. Their attention to things and boxes is quite natural. Don't swear or shout. Don't forget that they won't feed themselves.
2. While collecting and running around with boxes, give the little animals something that can distract them – a separate box for cats (they love them), toys, bones for dogs.
3. Resolve all issues with the veterinarian in advance (a couple of weeks in advance), if any. Update the information on the chip (approx. phone number, address).
4. To transport fish: pour the water from the aquarium into a bucket with a ventilated lid (transplant the fish there too), and transfer the vegetation from it to another container, adding the same water. Place the soil in bags. The aquarium itself - rinse, dry, wrap in bubble wrap.
5. For transporting birds: We wrap the cage with cardboard, and on top with warm and dense material (birds are afraid of drafts).
6. Rodents can be transported in their own cages , but it is recommended to insulate them if it is too cold outside. In hot weather, on the contrary, choose a place for transportation that will not be too hot and stuffy (so that the animals do not suffocate).
7. Don't feed dogs and cats right in front of the road , be sure to walk the dogs, and remove the drinking bowls during transportation - or, if it’s hot, replace them with wet sponges.
8. For cats and small dogs, it is better to use hard carriers. Naturally, it is not recommended to transport them to new home in the cargo compartment of the car. The best option– transport pets on your lap.

And don’t forget to take a couple of days off to move and unload your things in the new place. Moving after work is an ordeal.

How to say goodbye to your old home?

The wisdom of past generations often comes to contemporaries encrypted - in the form of superstitions. Many signs are logically justified, some seem completely absurd. For example, according to popular beliefs, houses are inhabited by house spirits, and losing them when moving is considered a big bad luck.

Brownies, despite their name, are not attached to housing, but to human owners, so spirits can be taken to a new home. The most common way is to loudly “invite” the brownie into a box of soft things, placed at the doorstep half an hour before departure.

Rumor has it that brownies love a variety of panicles and even live in them; If there is a broom in the house, be sure to take it to the housewarming party so as not to deprive the house-elf of his home. It is believed that the owners take away the spirits and troubles, and therefore before leaving it is worth cleaning and repairing the remaining household utensils. Current tap and cracked glass in the windows will appear in the new house if you don’t get rid of them in the old one.

Road signs

There are many “travel” superstitions; most are universal and go well with such an unusual trip as moving.

• If you're on the road it's raining- everything will turn out well. But precautions should not be neglected: you can easily slip on a puddle, injuring yourself and breaking the load you are carrying, no matter how good the day is.
• Immediately before departure, you need to sit at the door for a minute, preferably on your suitcases. The ritual is useful even without a metaphysical background - they usually squat “on the path” silently, and this makes it easier to remember an important call, an unturned tap or a forgotten hiding place.
• If the first person you meet on the road is a beggar, a pregnant woman or a dog, the owners will receive pleasant news soon after moving in. But a collision with a monk, a funeral procession or a young girl is already a warning against higher powers about “bad stars” on moving day.
• The ideal time to leave is considered to be early morning - right at dawn. The sooner the residents leave, the better and richer, according to popular belief, their life will be in the new place. In the evening, going out and taking something out of the house is considered bad omen.

There are other travel taboos - for example, on the day of departure you cannot sew, wash or wash your hair.

“Rituals” of new residents

There are other signs: it’s not enough to know how to move into an apartment - you will need some “rituals”. So, the cat should be allowed into a new home first. You cannot borrow an animal for moving - you need your own pet. It is also forbidden to push him - the cat must enter of his own free will; Superstition, however, does not prohibit throwing tasty bait.

The dog, on the contrary, should be allowed into the apartment only after people - otherwise the brownies will perceive the person who enters as a stranger and will play dirty tricks on him for a long time. Well, according to the “canon”, on the night before transporting things, a live rooster should be allowed into the house to disperse the evil spirits.

In addition to “animal” rituals, a set of actions after moving is also important.

• Immediately after moving in, carry out a wet cleaning of the apartment - this way you will clear it of foreign energy and prepare it for the new owner.
• In the following days, if the previous residents left behind broken furniture, plumbing fixtures, etc., start making repairs. As they say, “the tap flows, the money flows out of the wallet.”
• The same applies to chipped dishes, broken windows and other cracks in glass and ceramics - if possible, you need to get rid of broken things immediately, and all trash found during the moving process must be ruthlessly eliminated.
• The brownie should be fed after arrival, leaving flour, milk, buckwheat, bread and butter and red wine on the table overnight.

If you do everything correctly, you will make a significant contribution to the well-being of your home. The “bonus” of these rituals is prophetic dream on the first night in a new place.

"Golden" customs

Most signs are, in one way or another, related to financial well-being. People have many recommendations on how to move to a new apartment correctly so that you can make money. In the context of moving, the following “recipe” is used: on the first day of the housewarming, you need to throw a handful of coins on the floor from behind the threshold. After this, you cannot sweep the house for several days. The coins collected subsequently must be hidden in all the secluded places of the home - in ancient times they were inserted into the cracks between the floorboards or embedded in pliable clay walls, but in modern houses You can even use the space behind the baseboard.

To attract wealth, they also use jugs filled with money, in which scatterings of metal coins are stored separately. different colors. Banknote under the tablecloth dining table will also bring wealth to the owners - but removing it from the table is strictly prohibited. Some money will need to be left in the old house; The “boomerang rule” works here - when you give, you receive.

Magic talismans for all occasions

How to move to another apartment while maintaining complete harmony with the laws of the Universe? Our ancestors placed amulets throughout the house, and when moving, they decorated the house with them as early as possible. One of the main protective talismans is traditionally considered to be a horseshoe over the door - always nailed or glued with its “horns” up.

Folk customs, including those that have developed in modern times, provide for many “magical” objects:

• wreaths made of straw with seeds and beads woven into them, bunches of St. John's wort, willow, juniper, wormwood and thistle in the corners will scare away evil spirits;
• clay pots with salt and cereals, ears of corn and bunches of peppers and garlic will ensure that the residents of the house will never go hungry;
• figurines of spirits, homemade ten-handed dolls and a small broom suspended in the corner under the ceiling will appease the brownie;
• bast shoes and miniature hats hanging in the hallway protect residents from misfortune and guide those who get lost (for example, in a blizzard) home;
• A knife is placed under the threshold after entering - it is believed that unkind people and evil spirits will not be able to cross it.

In general, you can use any amulets. Feng Shui symbols, incense, Egyptian figurines and Jewish anchovy will bring good luck to those who believe in their power.

Add a little magic to such an exciting and stressful event as moving! And you will see how easier things will go, and the joy from the process will increase. Yes, moving rules are good, but combine them with magical signs and rituals and life will become easier and happier.

Signs, rituals of purification and protection will make moving to a new home successful, and life in the new place will be happy. Since ancient times, magic has been helping people, protecting their home and family. Respect the place you live in. Don't clutter your new home, protect it from evil people, then your life will become happy and prosperous.

An important sign when moving, especially if you are moving into an apartment after the old owners, is to get rid of the negative energy accumulated there. To do this, it is very important to do a general cleaning immediately after moving, thoroughly washing the floors and wiping off dust in all places.

We also know from our grandmothers that in a new house you can hang a horseshoe above the front door; this should be done with the horns facing down. This sign is associated with happiness and prosperity reigning in the new apartment or house.

But in the old days, bunches of St. John's wort were hung in houses to protect against evil forces and evil spirits - this is the so-called amulet.

The sign that when moving you should let the cat into the house first will help your new home become hospitable. That’s why they say that the cat should come in on its own, you just need to put it at the door. In general, there are a lot of signs and even superstitions associated with a cat. Some take a closer look at her behavior in a new place, remember the places she has chosen. For example, in the place where the cat fell asleep for the first time, a bed is placed. But this is not always correct, because the bed is located according to the principles of Feng Shui for the bedroom and according to other signs. Well, what should you do if your cat falls asleep in the kitchen or bathroom? Of course you won't sleep there!

1. Try to drive during a full moon. If this succeeds, then let the cat (if you have one) into the house first and say three times: “As the month is full, so life in the house would be full.”

2. If everything was fine in your old apartment, then say three times in the old place and three times in the new: “Grandfather-neighbor, let’s come with us to the apartment. Look after it, settle it, put it to bed, water it, feed it, drive it home.”

3. If you have already moved in, but have not taken the old brownie into the new house: on any three days (in a row) of the new moon, when the new moon is visible, you need to open the window and shout (it is very advisable to shout): “Grandfather Brownie, come home. Go live with us, we will love you."

4. The first slice of bread, cut off at the first dinner in a new house (not suitable for apartment residents), must be buried in the ground, in the right corner under the house, saying: “Breadwinner, breadwinner, come to the new house to eat bread here and listen to the young owners. "

5. If you have a basin, basket, etc. where you put your laundry before washing and it serves you for this purpose for at least 3 months, then when you bring it into the house you can say three times: “As (a basin, a basket or...) collects a lot of laundry, so let my house collect wealth.” "

How to take your brownie from your old to your new apartment

It’s unlikely that many today pay attention to this point, but in the old days, without a brownie, they didn’t squeeze him into a new home at all - they had to lure him with them by any means.

In general, a brownie is your friend and buddy who not only protects the house from troubles, but also takes care of the household. And when you are friends with him, you probably noticed that you are living well. Therefore, when moving, it is important to take your friend, the brownie, to your new apartment. The easiest way to do this is, after collecting things, put front door box in which soft items will be folded, and then leave it for at least 10-15 minutes. Your brownie will definitely climb into this box and go with you. And some beliefs convince us that to move with your brownie, it’s enough to grab a broom from your old apartment.

One way or another, after arrival you need to let the brownie in. Place the same box at the entrance and open it. Then pour milk into a saucer and place it on the floor. The brownie will certainly go to eat from your caring hands, especially since he could get hungry on the road.

There are, of course, entire rituals that can be performed, but they are best used in more serious cases. For example, if you had an unhappy life in your old place, or you moved into a bad place, etc. Or you have problems regarding family ties, etc. There are different situations, everything is determined according to the specific case.
And do not forget when selling any of your real estate, be it a house, apartment, outlet, shop, etc. take the brownie with you if things were going well for you there. And also treat your little ones. Leave milk, gingerbread, sweets. It is best to allocate a place near the stove; if this is not possible, then place it higher, but in the kitchen. If the animal starts to eat the treat, do not interfere, let it eat.
