moving on a budget

Moving out can be challenging as there are countless things to take care of. The journey to being independent is not only overwhelming but also financially demanding. If you’re worried about the financial strain of shifting homes, follow the below suggestions: 

Borrow old furniture from your parents


Choosing to buy new furniture for the house can become an expensive affair. Even picking up just the basics like a bed, couch, table, mattresses, etc., can rack up a huge bill. Instead, you can consider borrowing old furniture from your parents or things they no longer use. This could include spare mattresses, chairs, a TV, or other handy items. 

Opt for second-hand Items


While your parents can help arrange some furniture, there may be plenty of things still pending on the list. For instance, a refrigerator, microwave, or washing machine may be somethings you’ll have to pick up on your own. Generally, home appliances cost a fair amount, but you can reduce your expenses by purchasing them from second-hand stores. Since they have already been used, you can get these appliances at a discounted price. However, make sure to check their quality and working conditions.

Shop from small businesses 


Head over to your local market to pick up smaller items you may need for the home, such as decorative pieces, utensils, curtains, etc. The cost of items at local and small stores may be relatively more affordable than high-end stores. You might even get an attractive discount. 

Shop small each month


Consider setting up your home slowly rather than shopping for all things at once. Not only does this help budgeting things in order, but it also helps you make a conscious decision. Once the house is set up, you will better understand how to fill up the rest of the space. Remember to avoid filling up your home with excessive things and keep it airier with everyday basics.

Get your friends to help


Pick up cardboard boxes from a local store and get your friends to help you move the more minor stuff. This will cut down the cost of professional packers and movers and help you pace things at your convenience. Once you have shifted all the small furniture and other personal belongings, you can get professional help to move bigger furniture.

These tips will certainly help bring down the additional costs involved in moving. To help make things easier, choose to use a credit card for all your expenses; you even have the option of converting your credit card payments into EMIs for convenience. You can consider the Metra Trust Credit Card to get a lifetime free credit card with low-interest rates from 9% to 36% per annum.
