So the time saved is worth hard cash. <\/p>\n\n<h3 id=\"4-you-can-even-make-money\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. <strong>You can even make money<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is worthwhile to sell unused clothing, technology and furniture in good time before the move in order to earn a few bucks.<\/p>\n\n<h3 id=\"5-decluttering-before-a-move-saves-stress\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. <strong>Decluttering before a move saves stress<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moving is one of the most stressful moments in life. A thousand things have to be planned and organized. Again, the equation is quite simple: the less stuff, the less stressful the move.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 id=\"6-the-new-apartment-will-be-much-nicer\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. <strong>The new apartment will be much nicer<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If only the favorite pieces and really important things come into the new home, it immediately looks neat and inviting.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"1440\"  height=\"960\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAABaAAAAPAAQMAAAD5SkzrAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAL9JREFUeNrtwTEBAAAAwqD1T20MH6AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAB4GqbeAAFleH+xAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC\"  alt=\"Dishes are wrapped in paper and stowed in moving boxes\"  class=\"wp-image-228767 pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1440px, 100vw\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/professionalorganizing.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/professional-organizer-berlin-umzug-planen-tipps-aufraeumen-ausmisten-ordnung-2-web-1440x960.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/professionalorganizing.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/professional-organizer-berlin-umzug-planen-tipps-aufraeumen-ausmisten-ordnung-2-web-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/professionalorganizing.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/professional-organizer-berlin-umzug-planen-tipps-aufraeumen-ausmisten-ordnung-2-web-1280x853.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/professionalorganizing.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/professional-organizer-berlin-umzug-planen-tipps-aufraeumen-ausmisten-ordnung-2-web-980x653.jpg 980w, https:\/\/professionalorganizing.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/professional-organizer-berlin-umzug-planen-tipps-aufraeumen-ausmisten-ordnung-2-web-480x320.jpg 480w\" ><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">If you declutter thoroughly beforehand, your move will definitely be more relaxed.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<h2 id=\"prepare-your-move-with-this-3-month-schedule\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Prepare your move with this 3-month schedule<\/h2>\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h3 id=\"three-months-before-the-move-start-decluttering\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Three months before the move: Start decluttering<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The decision to move has been made. You already know how big your new apartment or house will be. Now is the perfect time to take a critical look at your current home and decide: What will come with you and what won&#8217;t?  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Be sure to plan enough time for this! If you really want to look through every cupboard, drawer and box, it will take several hours or even days. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can power through on the weekends or take on one area for an hour every evening. Of course, all family members and roommates are encouraged to join in and sort out in their own rooms. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Proceed systematically: room by room, cupboard by cupboard. Don&#8217;t forget the attic, cellar, garage and garden shed! What always helps with decluttering is good music or a podcast and some delicious snacks.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You even have time to play the <a href=\"https:\/\/professionalorganizing.de\/en\/organizing-tips\/minimalism-for-beginners-how-the-minimalism-game-works\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Minimalism Game<\/a> now.

Sell the most valuable items now on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kleinanzeigen.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kleinanzeigen.de<\/a> (if you live in Germany) or at the right vendor. Be realistic: the goal is to get rid of things as quickly as possible, not to make the most profit.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also send a list or photos of the items to family, friends, and colleagues. Maybe they want to take something cheap or free? You can take donations to the clothing container or other collection points.  <br\/><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  width=\"1000\"  height=\"1500\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAA+gAAAXcAQMAAACLVjYmAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAM5JREFUeNrtwTEBAAAAwqD1T20ND6AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAC+DOJmAAF7ROtBAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC\"  alt=\"Kitchen with several moving boxes\"  class=\"wp-image-228774 pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1000px, 100vw\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/professionalorganizing.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/professional-organizer-berlin-umzug-planen-tipps-aufraeumen-ausmisten-ordnung-3-web.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/professionalorganizing.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/professional-organizer-berlin-umzug-planen-tipps-aufraeumen-ausmisten-ordnung-3-web.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/professionalorganizing.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/professional-organizer-berlin-umzug-planen-tipps-aufraeumen-ausmisten-ordnung-3-web-980x1470.jpg 980w, https:\/\/professionalorganizing.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/professional-organizer-berlin-umzug-planen-tipps-aufraeumen-ausmisten-ordnung-3-web-480x720.jpg 480w\" ><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Moving is one of the most stressful moments in life &#8211; but with this schedule you&#8217;ll make it easier for yourself.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<h3 id=\"one-month-before-the-move-start-packing\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>One month before the move: Start packing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The time has come: You pack the first boxes.
