You may be a bit intimidated to move after hearing about some of the difficulties that you may encounter on your way to your new home. But luckily, most of what you have heard is probably untrue. Here are some of the most common moving myths according to movers in Denver, CO:
It would help if you always moved on a Friday.
You may have heard that it’s best to move on a Friday so you can spend the entire weekend settling into your new home and unpacking. But you’re not the only one who has thought of this plan. Many people plan on moving on Fridays, which means moving rates may be more expensive because of the increased demand. If you are on a tight budget, talk to your moving company about which days (if any) are cheaper.
You don’t need to buy boxes.
Some people try to get by packing their belongings in any box they can find. This is certainly less expensive than buying new boxes, but is it wise? No! Moving boxes are built to be sturdy enough to hold your belongings and protect them from damage. If you rely on boxes that are not designed for moving, they may not be strong enough to hold the weight of your belongings. If you want to play it safe, it’s smarter to buy moving boxes than it is to use any old box you have lying around. Or, if you don’t have this expense factored into your budget, check one of these 8 places to get moving boxes free of charge.

You have to pack everything on your own.
Packing up all of your belongings can be a time-consuming task, which is why so many people dread doing it when they have to move. Luckily, you don’t have to pack if you don’t want to. Look for a moving company—such as Eden’s Moving Company—that offers packing services. These professional packers will take good care of your belongings and make sure everything arrives safely at your new home.
You’ll remember where you put everything.
Some people try to cut corners by throwing random items in boxes and sealing them up without properly labeling what’s inside. This is a recipe for disaster. No matter how good your memory is, you will not remember what you put inside each box unless properly labeled. Take the time to pack similar items together, and then write a clear label on the outside of the box that will help you quickly identify what is inside. This will save you a huge amount of time once you arrive at your new house and start to unpack all of your belongings.
Now that you know the truth behind these common moving myths, you know there’s nothing to fear when it comes to moving.
