You have to deal with packing, labelling, check out report, movers, etc. You wonder whether you are going to receive your security deposit back or your landlord is going to charge you for some tiny scratch. So if this is the way you feel, imagine how your pet handles such a situation. Cats and dogs are intelligent animals and they feel that something is going to happen. Therefore, you should pay extra attention to them and help them with the moving and adaptation in the new home.

Dogs

As long as the dog is with his owner, with the person he loves, he will feel safe and sound. The dog can perceive the moving process as one of his regular walks, because he is used to get out of home every day. At the new property just show the dog his place for sleeping and playing. He will walk around to sniff the new home and soon he will start wiggling his tail.moving-with-pets-2

Cats

moving-with-pets-3Cats are a bit tougher to handle during the moving process. Before you start packing, put the cat in a separate room, where she can feel at ease. While she is in there, let the movers take the boxes and the furniture, call the inventory clerk from London to perform the check out report. It’s better for the cat not to see unfamiliar people.

Put the cat in a special carrier, when you transport her to the new home. Cats are not like dogs, they definitely don’t enjoy going out of their safe home, let alone ride in a car.

When you arrive at the new property, put her again in a separate room with her toys and bed. Unpack and arrange all the furniture and then let her out, so she can explore her new territory.

What Does This Yellow Box Do? https://www.londonlocalservices.co.uk/what-does-this-yellow-box-do/ https://www.londonlocalservices.co.uk/what-does-this-yellow-box-do/#respond Tue, 06 Nov 2012 08:41:45 +0000 https://www.londonlocalservices.co.uk/?p=1597 Continue reading ]]> At first sight, this yellow box looks like an ordinary European pallet and you can’t even imagine what it stores inside. It’s only 90 cm high but it contains a full set of room furniture, which can be assembled in just several minutes without any tools. Sounds unbelievable, right? Check the photos in the article to see that it’s actually true.

The name of this box is Casulo and it was designed by two Germans – Marcel Krings and Sebastian Mühlhäuser as their graduation project. Their main goal was to create something that helps the modern person be more flexible and mobile. Therefore, they designed a room, which fits in a box with width of 80cm, length of 120 cm and height of 90cm. Casulo can be easily transported and stored, which makes it the perfect solution for people who relocate very often and who are tired of moving services. Only two people are needed for lifting up and carrying the unit.

Now, let’s have a look what’s inside this mysterious box. Each unit contains the following items:

  • wardrobe
  • large table with surface of 80cm by 160cm
  • separate desk cabinet with drawers
  • single bed with dimensions 200cm by 80 cm
  • mattress
  • height-adjustable chair
  • two stools
  • tall set of shelves

These pieces of furniture can be easily assembled by one of two people without needing any additional tools. Casulo is made from strong materials and even after numerous moves, there will be no signs of wear and tear. When dissembled, the box doesn’t require extra packaging and its size makes if perfect for storing or transporting.

Casulo is truly the perfect solution for individuals who change their location frequently and who are tired of moving home. This unit makes the process really efficient, inexpensive and easy. One can save a lot of money from moving home services and London upholstery cleaning services.

The only bad thing about Casulo is that it’s still just a concept. We can cross our fingers and hope that soon the designers will begin to produce and sell it to customers.

How to Handle Moving Boxes Easily https://www.londonlocalservices.co.uk/how-to-handle-moving-boxes-easily/ https://www.londonlocalservices.co.uk/how-to-handle-moving-boxes-easily/#respond Wed, 23 May 2012 22:45:21 +0000 https://www.londonlocalservices.co.uk/?p=1243 Continue reading ]]> A complex process, such as a home relocation, will need to be broken down into simpler components, in order for the workers participating to be facilitated. Thanks to their knowledge, they might turn an otherwise nerve-breaking job into a common experience. One of the key parts of the move is the packing process.

moving-boxes

Thanks to the moving boxes, it is made to suit the best needs of the job. Here is how to handle those boxes easily:

1. The good thing about moving boxes is that they are each, largely available everywhere, light, strong, made from a cheap material and easy to use, all at the same time.

2. For the packing there will be a need of 4 things: boxes, rope, tape and fabric softener.

3. It is more than clear how to use the upper-shown materials. The secret of packing is in the objects themselves. Be really careful what you put in the box.

4. The idea is to place the packed possessions in the back of one of the vans that the house removals London will bring. For the purposes, the boxes need to be securely closed well. Vibrations from the van are not excluded as a possibility.

5. Using the fabric softener can only happen by taking it out of some of the old original boxes, that may have been containing other things. Otherwise an improvised softener can come in the form of creased paper, very easy to find.

Being the main component of the packing process, boxes are wonderful in a lot of ways. The only downside is that they are not water-resistant. Besides that, the packed possessions inside have all the protection they need.
