Spring break isn’t just for beach getaways and road trips—it’s also the perfect time to tackle your upcoming move. Whether you’re relocating across town or across the country, taking advantage of this downtime can help reduce last-minute stress and set you up for a smooth transition. If you’re planning a move in Indiana, Wheaton Moving & Storage is here to help you make the most of your spring break and get a head start on your journey.
1. Start with a Plan
Use the extra time to sit down and create a moving checklist. Decide what tasks you want to accomplish each day during the break. With no work or school distractions, spring break is ideal for mapping out your timeline, booking services, and coordinating details with Wheaton Moving & Storage.
Pro Tip: Our Move Consultants (Dave, Michael & Shellie) can help you build a customized moving plan—reach out early to get organized and ask any questions.
2. Declutter Like a Pro
Before you start packing, use spring break to go through closets, drawers, and storage areas. Sort items into keep, donate, sell, and toss categories. You’ll thank yourself later when you’re not lugging unnecessary clutter to your new place.
Bonus: Host a spring garage sale or donate to a local Indiana charity. It’s a great way to give back while lightening your load.
3. Pack Smart
Once you’ve decluttered, it’s time to start packing. Begin with off-season items and things you won’t need in the coming weeks—think winter gear, decorations, and seldom-used kitchenware. Wheaton can provide packing materials, or you can let our team handle the packing for you if you’d rather spend your break relaxing.
Tip: Label boxes by room and include a short list of contents. Trust us—your future self will appreciate the effort!
4. Schedule Your Moving Day
Spring is a popular time for moves, so it’s best to lock in your preferred date with Wheaton Moving & Storage early. Our experienced team has been helping Hoosiers move for decades, and we know how to navigate Indiana’s ever-changing spring weather.
Friendly Reminder: We offer full-service moving, storage solutions, and even help with specialty items like pianos or antiques.
5. Explore Indiana One Last Time
Spring break shouldn’t be all work and no play. Take breaks from packing to enjoy local favorites—hike the trails at Brown County State Park, grab lunch at your go-to Indy eatery, or take one more walk through your neighborhood. It’s the perfect way to say goodbye and create lasting memories before you head off to your next adventure.
