I am just sitting here and thinking about how quickly time flies. We are almost half way through June and closing in on July 1st. July 1st is THE moving day here in Montreal, Quebec. There is so much to thing of and organize. You might ask where do I even start? Well first thing is to contact a reputable moving company for an estimate. But buyers beware: the closer to July 1st the more expensive the move. After the movers come the other details like: do I need to paint, are there any handyman jobs I need help with, are my closets well designed or do they need additional shelving/hanging units, should I move everything or purge? The next step is packing and unpacking, very tiring jobs. Where do i get hold of boxes and tissue? The SAQs will sometimes give out boxes. The best bet is going out on recycling day to the stores in your neighborhood there are boxes to spare keft by the curb. A word of advice packing in newspaper is MESSY! Pack more smaller boxes: they are easier to load & unload and you feel a sense of accomplishment with each box you unpack. Next I want to come into a clean house/apartment.
Now what if you work full time or have a family to care for. How will I get it all done in time? Well hiring a company like My Concierge Plus (

Recently we organized a move for a client. We took care of:
1) booking the movers
2) unpacking, organizing and putting everything away
3) hiring the painters and overseeing their work
4) planning and installing built ins for the closet
5) cleaning the apartment before the move
This is just one of the many ways we can help you reduce your stress. Remember to give us your list and will take care of the rest!
