The short answer: Start as soon as the move is confirmed. To help you stay on track, follow this packing calendar as moving day approaches (link to Packing Calendar).

When planning a move, the amount of time you should leave for packing depends on the two important factors: size of your household and the number of items you’ll be taking with you.

The larger the household and the more items you plan on packing – the more time you need to set aside for packing. For example, you can’t expect to pack a two-bedroom apartment in a single day.

However, a packing rule of thumb is that you should start packing 8 week prior to the moving date. This will allow you to pack at a relaxed pace. That is if you’re not planning to hire professional packing services in Orange County, or Los Angeles.

If you plan on moving, perhaps you should hire experienced movers and packers. They can get you packed in no time, without a hassle on your part. AFD Movers Inc is the finest packing and moving company in Los Angeles and Orange County so feel free to give us a call.

Although you might think that packing is an area where you can save a couple of dollars when you’re already paying for professional movers, it’s not something you should do. Especially not when you take into account just how time-consuming packing can be.

When you hire a professional packing and moving company you can expect experienced packers to have your items all ready for a move three times as quickly as you and your family members would be able to do on your own.

AFD Movers Inc employs the finest movers and packers in the business, and we will be able to pack up your home in Orange County and Los Angeles in no time. Just tell us where you’re moving to, what you’re bringing to your new place, and the rest is on us. We’ll do the moving and packing for you, and you don’t have to worry for a single second.

However, in order for experienced packers and movers to be able to pack everything quickly and efficiently, you have to help them out. But only a bit, there’s absolutely no heavy lifting involved at all.

Just organize all of your household items well and settle on what needs to be packed ahead of time, before the packing service personnel arrives at your Orange County, or Los Angeles home. This will ensure that professional packers can immediately hop to it and get you packed in no time.

As we’ve previously mentioned, it’s not easy to pack up a two-bedroom house, let alone a three-bedroom one. Planning ahead and starting to slowly pack two weeks in advance is the only way to ensure you don’t miss anything and that you properly secure all your belongings.

However, if you choose to hire packing and moving professionals from AFD Movers, you can expect three movers to pack your three-bedroom home in Orange County or Los Angeles within 5 to 8 hours, depending on how many items you have.

All you need to do is organize your household items prior to the movers and packers’ arrival, and that’s it. After that, no need to lift a finger, literally. The only thing you can think about lifting is your feet up.

AFD Movers will dispatch a packing and moving crew to your location across the Orange County area at the agreed time, and all you have to do is open the door for them. After that, sit back, relax, and let the pros take over. You’ve done what you had to, now it’s time to unwind.

Yes, movers disassemble beds you want to relocate, as well as any other furniture you want to take with you to your new home.

However, there are some items that a professional moving crew will not be able to pack for you. These items include:

• Valuables, such as jewelry or cash
• Perishable food
• Live house plants
• Liquids

These are items best left in your care, especially when it comes to valuable items. Keep these items close to you, and prevent any potential problems from arising.
