Organizing Your Home In 2014






Happy New Year from the Move Cheap® Cincinnati Movers!

Were you aware that one of the most common New Year's Resolutions for 2014 is to get the home organized? That’s right, it's at the top with "losing weight", "quitting smoking", and "spending less". No matter how cluttered or out of control your home may seem, getting organized is an achievable goal that can be easily accomplished. We want to help you get the year started right, so we organized a list of our favorite tips for getting your home organized for the New Year:

Make a list and set time windows:  
Take a look around and what needs to be done in your home.  Write down the tasks that you want to complete and set reasonable time frames that you want to finish by.  This doesn't have to be set in stone, but it will help motivate you to stay on track

Use a U-Box mobile storage unit:  
Portable storage units aren't just for people that are moving.  You can use a U-Box portable storage unit to keep some of your things stored safely while you are organizing your home.  As an example, maybe you have an overflowing spare bedroom – it's difficult to organize in an area where there's no space.  Storing those items in a U-Box on your property will allow you to empty the room and slowly start bringing things back in as you organize at your own speed.

            Implement a reward system:
Do you want to keep your New Year's Resolution to organize your home, but your motivation is drifting? Start a reward system!  Set up rewards (like a candy bar) that you can earn after particular tasks are completed.  It sounds slightly funny, but it works!

Employ assistance:
If you start to feel overwhelmed with the tasks at hand, don't give up!  Hire us, the Move Cheap® Cincinnati Movers to help professionally organize and get your home in order for you.


From all of us at the Move Cheap® Cincinnati Movers, we hope your New Year is a great one!
