In an ever environmentally conscious world, the process of moving house remains a highly inefficient process.
Recent studies suggest that the average UK home move creates 16.8kg of CO2 emissions. To reduce this scary amount, here are some tips to a more eco-friendly move.
- Get cooking
Trying to empty out your fridge and freezer before the big move can help avoid unnecessarily throwing away food. It may even be worth contacting local charities and making donations to keep your waste to a minimum.
- Box it right
Cut down the Amount of packaging you use by utilising empty drawers, suitcases and crates around the house. Or look online for used packaging boxes at very low prices, then once you have moved, pass the favour on and sell your boxes to another mover.
- Shed the weight
Planning your move in advance, you can cut down costs by deciding what actually needs to move with you. Do your part for others by donating unwanted clothes, books, toys, DVDs and move.
