Let’s say your friends are moving into a new home. And if these friends of yours are smart they’ve already hired the
Move Cheap® Cincinnati Movers,
so they’re all set for their big moving day. But you – being the
amazing, thoughtful, generous friend that you are – still want to
somehow help these friends with their move. Since the physical moving
and lifting part is covered, you need to get a bit more creative when it
comes to helping out. Fear not! Moving is more than just picking up
boxes; Here are five ways to help your friends move without any heavy
lifting.
1. Provide childcare
Having the kids around on moving day will not only slow down the
process, but it can also be potentially dangerous. Offering to babysit
the kids while your friends are busy with all the pieces of their move
is a great way to lend a hand. Trust us on this one.
2. Make them a home-cooked meal
A home-cooked meal may not be the right dinner ON moving day…the dishes
may still be packed in boxes after all. But bringing over a hot meal a
few days after moving in is a wonderful idea and we’re totally sure
those friends of yours would definitely appreciate it!
3. Pet-sit!
If your friends don’t have kids, they may have a pet. And no one wants
to worry about the well-being of their animal during a hectic moving
day. Even if you only watch their pet for a few hours, you’re still
doing your part to make their busy day a little less stressful.
4. Help clean the old place
When you’re moving into a new home, you’re often so excited to get your
new home unpacked and looking good that you neglect to give your old
place a good clean. And yeah, the landlord will notice. While your
friends unpack at their new place, offer to clean the old one. It may
take some time and some sweat, but it’s one less HUGE thing that your
moving friends need to worry about. Major friendship points to be earned
here.
5. Give a practical gift
Give your friends a moving gift they’ll actually use in their new place. Keep it simple like a can opener or a pizza cutter.
So are you ready to win the friend of the year award? We think you’re
well on your way if you do any of these five things for your friends who
are moving into a new pad. And the best part? No back ache!
