Moving can be overwhelming, whether you are relocating across town, downsizing, or coordinating something last-minute. At The Good Move LLC, we have helped thousands of families, renters, and seniors move smoothly throughout Lafayette, Boulder, Denver, and the surrounding communities. With the right preparation and the right team, moving doesn’t have to be a headache.
Here’s your guide to making it stress-free from start to finish:
1. Start Early and Make a Plan
Last-minute packing is where most stress begins. Give yourself a buffer by starting the planning process at least 3-4 weeks in advance. Create a checklist, set a move date, and book your movers early, especially during peak moving season (May-August).
At The Good Move, we will work with your schedule, offer free estimates, and handle all the logistics so you don’t have to worry about timing or coordination.
2. Downsize Before You Pack
The fewer items you move, the faster and more affordable the job becomes. Take time to declutter and donate, sell, or recycle anything you no longer need. This is especially helpful for seniors downsizing or families moving out of long-time homes. We would be happy to take your items to a donation center or landfill if needed.
3. Let Professionals Handle the Packing
Packing might seem doable at first until you realize how many boxes, materials, and hours it takes. Our team at The Good Move offers full packing and unpacking services, so your dishes, artwork, electronics, and valuables are packed with care and labeled for easy unloading.
We provide all materials, label everything clearly, and even unpack if needed. We can also help with last-minute packing if time gets tight.
Not sure if you need full-service packing? We are happy to do as much or as little as you need.
4. Protect Your Floors, Walls, and Furniture
Nothing adds stress like scratches, dents, or broken furniture on move day. We can add floor protection into your estimate and will always use proper lifting techniques to protect your home and belongings from damage because moving carefully is just as important as moving quickly.
5. Choose a Local Team That Knows the Area
Navigating tight streets in Boulder, hauling up flights in Denver walk-ups, or coordinating a senior move at a retirement community takes local know-how. We have been moving people throughout the Front Range for over 13 years, we know the logistics, building restrictions, and hidden challenges before we ever step on site.
