Honey I’m Home! Unpacking and Setting Up Your New Space
Who knew that Great Aunt Bessie’s vase would garner thousands of dollars at auction while the rug you cherished all those years, conversely, brought in nothing at all. Either way, it’s done. You got it done! The boxes are packed and sorted. The most cherished items you wanted to pass along to family members have been distributed. You sold a number of items, donated so much, and filled a dumpster. You officially have downsized!
Now what?
Unpacking and Setting Up
Last time on the blog we talked about the process we use at A Simpler Life Now to get you to this point — packing everything up to make a move, perhaps after decades and decades in your old home, filled with memories, valuables, and way too much furniture. Today, in part two, we explore getting you unpacked and set up in your new home.
Once again, you will have no headache or stress when it comes to getting your new space organized just the way you like it.
I will open all the boxes, and set up everything.
I’ll probably tell you to go order the house special at your new local restaurant and to come back in a few hours to your new home. Then, like “the big reveal” on an episode of an HGTV show, you will walk in to find:
Your spices have been organized.
Your pantry is sorted.
Your dishes are placed in the cabinets.
Your clothes closets are set up by season.
Your coffee/tea stations are waiting for the first brew.
Your books are arranged.
Your china cabinet looks beautiful.
Your beds are made.
Your bathrooms are organized.
Your medicines are sorted.
Your pesky clocks have all been reset.
Your linen closet will be set up.
Your artwork will be hung.
Your display photos will be put out.
All the boxes have been broken down and removed.
Do you know that it takes the average homeowner 182 days to unpack after a move! Yup . . . 182. Don’t believe me, then google it for yourself. And that’s just the average, many take much longer. The good news is that A Simpler Life Now can make sure that your project is completed in a matter of hours.
Your new home will be ready for you in every way possible — ready to cook your first meal, have guests over for a games night, and lay your head down on your fluffed pillows for your first night in your new home.
Imagine how great it will feel to enter a place that feels like home the minute you walk in the door.
Our experienced move management team gives you all the productivity without any of the headaches. We have taken lots of photos of your old place, so we can set it up to look like a smaller version of what you already know, or perhaps you want us to surprise you and set it up using our own trained eyes. The choice is completely yours.
Since you have already let go of the things you don’t need in your new home, there will be much less clutter. It will be a new home filled with all of the things you love best. And you will be all set to enjoy a simpler life, now.
