Conquer the Summer House Move: Your Barnet Survival Guide

Calling all Barnet movers! Summer has finally arrived, bringing with it sunshine, longer days, and...a possible move? Don't let the anticipation of a new chapter turn into packing-induced anxiety. Lightrock Removals, your Barnet moving experts, are here to help you get through the season with a stress-free relocation plan.

To Do List:

Planning is essential for a smooth summer move. Here is how you can get a head start:


Book early: Moving companies are extremely busy during the peak summer season. Book your date with Lightrock Removals well in advance, especially if you have specific requirements, such as weekend availability.


Decluttering is Your Mantra: Don't carry the baggage of your past! De-clutter ruthlessly. Donate, sell, or recycle anything you don't need. Less stuff means less time and money spent packing and moving.


Packing With Precision: Label each box clearly and keep a master list of contents. This will save you time and frustration when you arrive at your new Barnet home. Stock up on packing supplies such as sturdy boxes, tape, and bubble wrap.

Beat the Barnet Rush:


Weekday Warrior: Consider making a weekday move. Weekends are peak times for movers, resulting in higher prices and potential scheduling conflicts. Weekday moves can be less expensive and less disruptive.


Early Bird Gets the Parking Spot: Summer means limited parking, particularly in Barnet. Make arrangements in advance for temporary parking permits at both your old and new homes.


To beat the heat, stay hydrated. Moving is physically demanding. Pack plenty of water bottles and take breaks in shaded areas to avoid heat exhaustion.
