Hey everybody, we haven’t posted in a while. Â We’ve been super busy moving Seattle. Â Over the last few years we’ve noticed something…..mattresses. Â They’re everywhere, in the streets, by dumpsters and on the freeway? Â Donation centers wont take them and taking so many to the dump is just overwhelming our landfills. Â So we decided to launch a mattress recycling service. Â We developed our own process to break down and reuse or recycle the entire mattress and box spring set. Â Wish us luck on our new venture as we currently accept the mattresses at our own location in Edmonds and try to create drop centers all over the city.

Of course letting the professionals of our Movers handle all of your Seattle Moving needs are the best bet around. Enjoy this second post, as we are sure you will learn some aspects of moving that will make your moving day much easier.
Don’t Forget to Arrange and Transfer School Records Two Weeks in Advance – Your children’s school records can take time to shift, so it’s important to start the transfer process a couple of weeks prior to the move. This will ensure a smooth transition, and that your children will miss as little of school as possible.
Don’t Forget to Get Snacks for Moving Day – Moves are tiring, and as such you will need energy, it’s important to have plenty of snacks and drinks so that you don’t have to make frequent stops to feed your family. The more you can focus on the move, the faster and more effective you will be, and the easier the move will be. Of course if you have Seattle Select Moving Services, your move will be as easy as pie.
Don’t Forget to Mail Your Change of Address Forms Two Weeks in Advance – The last thing you want is to have to be making a bunch of trips back to your old home. Instead it’s best to stay ahead of the game by changing your address before you even get into your new home.
Make sure and Cancel All Your Cable, Landscapers, Pest Control, and Newspaper Subscriptions – Don’t forget to cancel all of your previous services, or to inform the companies that you will be moving and then provide them with the new address. Otherwise you may end up paying for another family’s service, or that of an empty home.
Clean Your Stove Before You Move Out – Never forget to clean out your stove ahead of time, this is one of the worst things to walk into. You don’t want to leave someone else with a dirty, grimy stove on their first night in their new home.
Defrost your Fridge the Day of the Move – Make sure to unplug and clean out your fridge by the last day, as it will save on electricity before its turned off, and allow it to air out for the next tenants. If you are moving the fridge to your new home, it will give you a fresh start, and keep ice from melting during the move and making a big mess. Seattle Select Movers want to see your move go as smooth as possible.
Make Sure You Have Enough Cash the Day of the Move – Having the right amount of cash on moving day is important, in many cases you may be moving on a weekend and the banks could be closed, or may just be out of the way. And any time spent off route is going to add to an already exhaustingly long day of moving in Seattle.
Remember that a Moving Company Will Not Transfer Hazardous Materials – Moving companies will bot transfer your hazardous materials like gasoline, acids, and other harmful chemicals, so this is something to think about when preparing for your next move.

Ten Weird Tips for Moving That Really Work (Part Two)
Ten Weird Tips for Moving That Really Work (Part Two)
Hey friends, hope you read the first part of this series in which we offer you some off the wall tips that most don’t think of. In the second part of this post we will continue on with five more tips that will complete the list of ten odd moving tips to help make your life easier… because here at Seattle Select Moving Services that’s what we are all about.
Ten Weird Tips for Moving That Really Work 5-10
Bag your clothes –
I know we mentioned this before, but that’s because it really works something as simple as a black trash bag is great for keeping your clothes clean and dry as well as on the hangers. Simply pull the whole bag up around a cluster of clothes, tie around the top of the hangers and seal with some tape… And voilà , your clothes are safe and sound.
Take Pictures –
Putting back together your home after a move can be a lot like solving a jigsaw puzzle and who has time for that in the beginning? Instead try taking pictures of different areas of the house, living room, dining room and bedrooms just to start. You can also take pictures of dishes to make sure you can fit all the items back into the cupboards.
Keep The Fish Alive –
Many people will just flush the aquatic pets’ home down the drain, this is a bad idea. Why? Because fish are a great way to add familiarity to your new home, and a fish tank is its own tiny ecosystem complete with bacteria that is important to your fish. Instead save some of the water and the fish to add a sense of “home” to your new home. And the existing water will help ensure your fish endure the move.
Don’t Clutter Up the New Garage –
Avoid the tendency to put boxes in the garage. Instead take the extra minute to carry the box to its appropriate place in the house. This will help you dodge the pitfall of filling up the garage with boxes and never getting them unpacked.
Leave the Television in the Box –
Moving can get hectic and tiresome, so the key is to keep the comforts at bay. You can guarantee that if you unpack the T.V. and set it up early your move is going to take a lot longer. If you keep it tucked away for last you will get everything done in your new home and can use the big screen as a reward for finishing the set-up of your new home.

Ten Weird Tips for Moving That Really Work (Part One)
Moving can be a hassle, and sometimes a tip or two can change it all… So today here at Seattle Select Moving Services we’re gonna share with you a few tips that may be a little “different” but will greatly improve your next big move.
Ten Weird Tips for Moving That Really Work
Whine with Socks Please –
Typically whine goes well with cheese, but you can have that combo to celebrate the finishing of your new move. Instead try using your socks to keep your favorite stem wear safe.
Stack Plates on Plates –
Instead of painstakingly wrapping each plate separately from one another a great tip for this is to wrap an entire stack nice in tight in plastic wrap. Make sure to place some form of padding between each plate, newspaper can work as well as bubble wrap or even other Styrofoam plates.
Sheet Can be Used for More than Making Ghost Costumes –
Your extra sheets can be used to protect any piece of furniture in your home as well as a cover for your bed to keep it clean. Using sheets also helps in freeing up packaging space.
You Can Pack By Color –
Of course you can label every box, but this can get time consuming and the letters may become illegible to read. Instead try getting some colored stickers and using those to color codes the boxes, of course you will want to create a legend on a note pad of some type. This can help eliminate confusion and make unpacking a snap.
Use wheeled Luggage for Books –
If you own one of those cool little carry-ons with the wheels and a handle you can use it for moving your books. Whatever you do avoid using heavy duffle bags as they can get way too heavy to carry and a hurt back never helped anyone move. Instead get your smaller pieces of luggage and try using those for books.

Tips to help make your move better from Seattle Select Movers
Always Pack Ahead
It’s always best to avoid packing on the last day; there are certain things you can pack ahead of time to make your move less stressful. For example if you’re moving in the height of summer you can pack your winter clothes. To make things easier you can box up all your extra hygiene products and live out of a travel case for the last week.
Another tip: the last few days avoid buying excessive groceries as well as preparing meals that take massive time and utensils. Also clean your trash cans and waste baskets ahead of time, they are perfect for storing items while moving.
Maximize Your Wardrobe Box Use
Getting your wardrobe organized early helps make things much easier for you. It’s best to layer your wardrobe boxes, you can start with sturdier items such as shoes and boots on the bottom of the boxes, place them in bags to avoid dirtying your other clothes. Next pack your hanging items and make sure they’re tight to avoid them falling off the hangers. You can finish it off with some sweaters and purses to create a tight fit. This will make it easier when unpacking; if you need boxes don’t forget to ask about the durable easy to manage storage containers we rent at Seattle Select Moving.
Consolidate Cleaning Supplies
If cleaning your old house is a must, put together a simple kit of cleaning supplies, paper towels and sponges. Clean everything as soon as possible, (don’t forget cupboards, drawers,and windows!) Vacuuming can be done as the movers empty each room. Don’t forget the oven!
Use Your Luggage
Luggage and duffle bags are a great way to store bulky fabrics like towels, bed sheets and blankets. You can also put our favorite outfits in a suitcase or duffle bag for easy access for the next week while you’re unpacking.
Keep Important Papers With You
These important papers could include: records, diplomas, birth certificates, your moving estimates and new job contacts, as well as utility companies, bank records, current bills, closing papers, and phone numbers. It’s best to keep these with you for easy access in case you need them.
