Moving the furniture out...we thought this day would never come!
The movers arrived at 9am & had moved everything by 12.30.
Three of them & they made light work of the wardrobe & bigger furniture.
So glad we can relax a bit now for another two weeks.
I have no idea how people move out the buyers move in all on the same day!
I have a bit of sprucing up to do here before out buyers move in.
Three good things:
1. I vow our next place will have far lees furniture in it...the house looks bigger & far less cluttered...even the dresser top with all that blue & white stuff might not make it into the new place...I never thought I would be saying that!
2. Cheerful movers...they carried a massive American style fridge freezer into the van....it had to come out...it’s staying! No grumbles! It was a fine day too....
3. Mince, carrots & mash for tea!
A slight worry about paperwork for building regs today...work carried out in 2000 .... twenty years ago! It’s all another stress but hopefully will be ok! House selling in the UK is a fraught business!
Sounds like a good day in many ways. It's amazing how much stuff we accumulate!!! When we moved here (not long before we met you!!) our family space had a rocking chair, 4 floor cushions and some seats at the breakfast bar (which we inherited ).
Now we have sofa, chairs, coffee table, two units......and still use the chairs at the breakfast bar!! 😄😄 next project is to refurbish them!!!!
Enjoy the space and the time that remains. It has been a lovely happy home! Hope the new people find the same!
Obviously you have left enough in the house to live for that time! I agree with the more space is more pleasing. Our house is so small, I can't put anything more in it.
@maggiemae Yes just the basics maggie, we have stuff to take to the tip still & charity stuff but otherwise just us, a bed, table TV & the furniture we don’t want but the buyer does!
Sorry for mass reply but I’m ready for bed....feel happier tonight that we’ve made a start! Two weeks now to get house straight & ready for new people. Thank you all for your good wishes!
Fantastic! Congratulations on this important stage of the proceedings and well done for all your hard work. All the best over the next two weeks and lots of love from me and mine xxx
Your buyers are lucky that you have left them your property in impeccable condition. Now a big good luck for your new life in a different house and location.
We always had professional movers because we made our moves on behalf of the company my husband worked for, always impressed by their speed and careful packing at the same time 👍
Glad, it all went well for you 💪

I never want to see another removal van again. Seen too many of them over the years.
Hope you are able to relax soon.
Glad, it all went well for you 💪
