Tips for Moving in with Your Partner

CEO Lior Rachmany of NYC-based Dumbo Moving + Storage has tips on how to effectively take the plunge and move-in with your partner on Valentine's Day!

Tips for moving in with your partner
  • For a romantic surprise: put hidden notes for your partner to find in some of the boxes
  • Set responsibilities with your partner – divvy up chores based on who prefers to do which tasks, and be open to reevaluating these chores as you live together
  • Plan your first meal in your new space ahead of time – the best bet is to order takeout because you get to enjoy your new space yet don't have to worry about cooking
  • Don't get rid of everything that you have doubles of – the extra mugs or blankets may seem excessive, but it's important to keep some extra things that are unique to the both of you
    • However for the things you are getting rid of: make sure you get rid of them before the move, that way they won't add to the cost of relocation services
  • Embrace an adjustment period – the move is not going to be an easy change and won't be something you get used to right away and that is completely fine
