In this episode of More Organised, Less Clutter, Narelle shares five common moving mistakes that can make moving house more stressful than it needs to be, from not allowing enough time to forgetting to label boxes properly. She'll walk you through simple ways to plan ahead, declutter before you move, pack with unpacking in mind, and look after yourself throughout the process.

Episode Highlights:

  • Why underestimating the time needed for packing, sorting and cleaning can lead to last-minute stress.
  • How decluttering before you move can save you time, energy and money.
  • Why aiming for “good enough” rather than perfect can help you keep moving when unexpected problems come up.
  • Simple packing and labelling strategies that make unpacking much easier, including colour coding and avoiding those dreaded “Miscellaneous” boxes.

Key Takeaways:

  • Give yourself more time than you think you’ll need. Work backwards from moving day and create a timeline for everything that needs to happen.
  • Declutter before you pack. There’s little point spending time and money moving things you no longer use or need.
  • Pack for the person who will be unpacking. Clear labels, room names, contents lists and keeping furniture hardware organised can save hours later.

Listen to the full episode now and learn how to avoid the common mistakes that can turn a moving day into a stressful scramble. Whether you’re moving across town or interstate, these practical tips will help you plan ahead, reduce unnecessary work and make settling into your new home a little easier.
