Moving Out? Here’s Your Go-To Guide!

Congratulations on reaching the next step on your exciting journey of a new start! The excitement of a new beginning is here, but so is the overwhelming thought of packing, cleaning, and figuring out what to do with all the stuff you no longer need. One of the biggest (if not the biggest) things that movers have to tackle (other than arranging and finalizing ending lease agreements and selling homes), is all of the cleaning, organizing, lifting, and loading up that needs to be done before the final goodbye rolls around. Wish you had a quick guide to moving out? That’s where we come in!

Moveout Cleanouts with JM Junk Removers

Step 1: Plan Ahead for a Hassle-Free Move

A successful move starts with a solid plan. Before you even think about packing, take a moment to:

Create a moving checklist – A list keeps you organized and ensures you don’t forget important tasks. Need inspiration? Check out this moving checklist.
Sort your belongings – Decide what to keep, donate, or toss. If you have items you no longer need, JM Junk Removers can help haul them away hassle-free.
Book necessary services early – From hiring movers to scheduling junk removal, securing services in advance helps avoid last-minute headaches.

Step 2: Decluttering Before Packing

Packing is a lot easier when you’re not lugging around things you don’t need. Decluttering before a move can save you time, effort, and even money. Here’s how:

Start room by room – Tackle one space at a time to keep the process manageable.
Use the ‘One-Year Rule’ – If you haven’t used it in a year, it’s probably time to let it go.
Sell, donate, or recycle – Sell valuable items online, donate to charities, and let JM Junk Removers take care of what’s left. Need guidance? Check out our decluttering guide.

Step 3: What to Do with Bulky Items (Appliances & Furniture)

Moving large appliances and furniture can be tricky. Instead of dragging them along, consider:

Donating gently used furniture – Organizations like Goodwill and Habitat for Humanity accept furniture in good condition.
Recycling old appliances – Many cities have recycling programs, but if you’re unsure where to start, JM Junk Removers offers appliance removal services.

Step 4: Move-Out Cleaning & Junk Removal

A clean space is key when moving out—especially if you’re hoping to get your security deposit back! Make sure to:

Deep clean your space – Wipe down surfaces, vacuum, and check for damages.
Remove any junk left behind – Old mattresses, outdated electronics, and broken furniture? We take it all! Our move-out cleanout service makes leaving a place spotless effortless.
