The new year brings new opportunities and chances to make the best of the next 365 days. As the clock struck midnight and the calendar changed from 2015 to 2016, hopefuls all around the world raced to determine their new year resolutions. They vary from realistic to far fetched, but the chance to leave old habits behind are appealing to most. For the inner DIY movers at heart, there are some reasons you might want to move as a resolution. Here are 5 signs you need to move this new year:
A fresh start this new year
Are you looking for a change in scenery this new year? A clean slate is a way to reinvent yourself, and there is no better way to do that then to move. If you are not happy with your current state of life then pack up your moving truck and head in a new direction. It is never too late to start over, and this serious life change will leave you feeling like a new you.
Save money this new year
Everyone dreams of saving money this new year. Relocating to a less expensive area or downsizing your living quarters can help you save money all year long! A DIY move is a cost effective way to relocate your items, and with your moving and storage resource, U-Haul, your move is sure to be a success!
Stop procrastinating
Is moving on your 2016 bucket list? Well there is no better time than now! Winter is the best time to move and is the lightest on your pockets. According to U-Haul Moving Statistics and Fun Facts, nearly half of moves happen between Memorial Day and Labor Day. If you are looking for lower rates, less traffic, and want to beat the heat then wait no longer to move! Once you have moved into your new home, continue your new years resolution by avoiding unpacking procrastination.
Become more organized
Organization is the key to stress free living. For anyone the process of moving is very stressful, but with the right plan your move can be a breeze. Create a time line of your move, and stick to the dates. Before you begin packing, organize your items and determine what will be going with you, what you would like to donate, and what needs to be discarded. Remember to reserve your moving supplies and equipment ahead of time to avoid any unexpected mishaps.
Travel more to see the world
If you have a severe case of wanderlust then maybe it is time to pack your moving boxes and begin a new adventure. Moving is one way to see the world! Instead of visiting for a week, you can move to your dream location and embed yourself in the culture to get a full experience. A road trip is a good way to get the best of both worlds– combining traveling and moving.
Many people make New Year resolutions, but only a small fraction actually achieve their year long goals. Join the minority this year, and make true on your resolutions. With U-Haul moving can be easy and efficient, and you can make 2016 the year you have been dreaming of.
