Move Smarter, Not Harder.

Moving to a new home is exciting! A fresh start, a new space, and endless possibilities. But let’s be honest, the process of packing up your entire life and relocating can feel overwhelming fast. The good news? It doesn’t have to be! With a little planning and some expert help, your move can be smoother, less stressful, and dare we say—enjoyable.

At Megan Marie Organizing, we specialize in helping people declutter before the move and set up systems that work once you're in your new space.

Practical tips to move more efficiently and how we can make your transition seamless.



1. Declutter Before You Pack

One of the biggest mistakes people make when moving? Packing everything… clutter and all. Moving is the perfect time to evaluate what you actually use and love. Why spend time (and money) moving things you don’t need?

Pro Tip: Go room by room and sort items into four categories: Keep, Donate, Trash, Sell.


2. Start Early with a Plan

If you want to get a head start on packing efficiently, begin by packing non-essential items, like off-season clothing, holiday décor, and extra kitchen gadgets.

When ready to relocate, pack one zone at a time, labeling boxes clearly by room and contents. Mark each box utilizing colorful painter’s tape, selecting a different color tape for each room to label each box. This will help movers quickly identify where to unload boxes upon arrival at your new home.

Pro Tip: Consider renting a storage unit if you’re decluttering and staging prior to listing!


3. Make Each Room Look Functional

If your pantry is overflowing or your closet looks chaotic, potential buyers may assume the space is too small or poorly designed… even if it’s not. First impressions matter, and a cluttered space can create doubts about functionality. That’s where Megan Marie Organizing comes in—our expert organization techniques highlight your home’s full potential and help buyers see the possibilities, not the problems.


4. Get Organized From the Start

Unpacking is the perfect opportunity to create new systems that actually work for your lifestyle! Instead of stuffing things into drawers and closets, let’s build systems from the start—think labeled bins, drawer dividers, custom pantry setups, and more!

Megan Marie Organizing can help you:

  • Unpack intentionally and efficiently

  • Create organizing systems tailored to your needs

  • Make your new space feel like home—not just a place with boxes
