Moving can be a hassle at the best of times, even when you have everything boxed up and
organised properly. There are always many things to remember when you plan a new move. Good
luck with finding enough boxes! Folding and packing up all of your clothing can be one of the
biggest chores. Then there are all the valuable breakables and dishes to wrap and pack, which
means you’ll need to find loads of bubble wrap and newspaper to keep your most precious items
from becoming damaged on the road. Then throw in the kids’ toys and games; large furniture like
couches, chairs, dining tables, and beds; lawn chairs and bicycles and all the other stuff you’ve
packed into the garage over the years. On top of all of that, pets often have many more supplies
than expected once you really start packing things up. It all takes up precious space in the car,
truck, or moving van.

But most importantly, you’ll need to think about moving your dogs, cats, birds, or other pets to
your new home both safely and in comfort. When you have pets, moving can become even more of
a tense situation. Animals can sometimes be very stressed by a move. Routines are essential to
many pets, and when those routines start to change, pets can become agitated and upset by the
flurry of activity. If their favourite items aren’t there when they arrive, that could cause even more
problems. At best, they may hide for a few days, and at worst, they may decide to break in your
new carpet with a little special something. You can make it so much easier on yourself and your
furry friends when you choose to use Self Storage in Murwillumbah.

Pet supplies like pet crates, dog beds, cat scratching posts, and birdcages can take up even more
space than you have available. Fido’s old, torn up bed that he can’t live without might be far too
big to take with you on your first trip to your new home. Your feline friends will be finicky no
matter what during a move. They will most definitely want their huge scratching post back in the
window when you finally get settled into the new space. You might even have to make multiple
trips to get all the food supplies, bedding, sleeping crates, and chewed-up toys to your new home.
Consider using Self Storage in Murwillumbah instead of making multiple trips just for all
your pets’ most favourite items. Get a quote today.
