Relocation is a substantial change, no matter how far or for what reason you’re moving. Just like every other major life change, it’s often accompanied by stress. The movers at Jeffers Moving & Storage Company in Cincinnati, OH, strive to reduce their client’s stress by handling all the heavy lifting on their behalf. They’ve shared some other ways you can cope with your relocation stress as well.

How to Deal with the Stress of Moving

1.  Plan Ahead

Last-minute work in a move will not help your stress levels, so start planning for it as soon as possible. Buy a “moving notebook” to keep track of your to-do lists, movers contact information, packing lists, and timelines. Prioritize all your tasks and work on one at a time; breaking the big project down into smaller, more manageable parts will make the impossible feel easy.

2. Say Goodbye

moversTake the time before you leave to say goodbye to your old life. This could include connecting with friends, throwing a goodbye party, or visiting your favorite spots in the area, such as restaurants or museums. If you have children who are having some extra trouble with the relocation, make plans to go back and visit with friends soon.

3. Research Your New Life

As you’re leaving your old life, remember that this is an exciting new beginning and you should make the most of it. Research the new area you’ll be living in to find new favorite spots, such as restaurants you’ll plan to try or fun activities to do near your home. Research groups you can join to meet new people. If you have children, look at sports teams or clubs they can join to make friends and continue their interests.
