It’s fall and that could mean only one thing, pumpkin flavored drinks! It also means it’s time to visit your Jacksonville storage unit and get all the clothes and miscellaneous items you left in their last spring. But don’t be fooled, unpacking your storage unit is as much of an art as packing it is.

Here are a few tips to unpack your storage unit tips from your local Jacksonville movers:

Take Your Time

Don’t go to your Jacksonville storage unit when you are in a hurry. If you are in a rush to get in and out, then you will probably leave quite a mess behind. You will put things out of order and you will probably damage boxes that will need to be replaced the next time you are unpacking your storage unit.

Keep Everything in Order

If you are unpacking your storage unit to get to your fall clothes or to look for a few books or items you may want for fall, then try to keep the rest of your items in order. If you have everything in order it will making packing your Jacksonville storage unit much easier.

Repack it Correctly

If it was not nicely organized, this is your chance to pack your storage unit correctly while the weather is more permitting. Get in there and make pathways, and label boxes that you need to open because their contents are unknown. Bring some music, some lunch and make a day out of it!

KB Homes, a real estate company, has been building more and more lately. After completion of the Jacksonville community Chandlers Crossing earlier this month, the real estate company has announced the completion of Vista Pointe, putting even more new homes for sale in Jacksonville. Local Jacksonville movers at All My Sons Moving & Storage fully expect that they will be busy this upcoming month due to all of the families moving into the area.

Vista Pointe is a neighborhood consisting of beautiful suburban homes for sale in Jacksonville that range in price around $240,000 per house. Families moving to Jacksonville interested in this community will be happy to learn that the neighborhood is close to i295, and only 10 minutes away from North Florida University. The grand opening took place in mid-August and there are still a few homes for sale in Jacksonville available to the public.

Habijax, nonprofit construction company that primarily builds homes for the poor, was approved for an additional $840,000 in funds from the city council. They will start building even more homes in the city of Jacksonville. It is clear that the city of Jacksonville is starting to see a housing boom.

All My Sons Moving & Storage can get you to Jacksonville quickly, but there won’t be any Google Fiber available in the area until next year, at the earliest. Once you’ve hear about Google Fiber, it will be everything you’ve ever wanted. Your local Jacksonville movers are hooked.

A downfall of Google Fiber is that it is not easily accessible everywhere. At this point it doesn’t look like Jacksonville neighborhoods with Google Fiber are coming anytime soon. Local Jacksonville movers have been waiting as long as everyone else, but the latest news has announced delays.

The internet giant may have bitten off more than it can chew. Google Fiber was first announced over five years ago. Since then, there just has not been a lot of progress. When this type of technology moves into a neighborhood, it takes time to dig up existing areas, backyards, and roads. Jacksonville neighborhoods with Google Fiber will likely have to go through the same process.

Currently, there are 15 cities in the United States that have Google Fiber. It is difficult for local Jacksonville movers to predict when the next neighborhood will get it. Moving to a new city does not guarantee access to Google Fiber; however, many people do move to new homes because of the surrounding amenities. In this case, moving to Jacksonville just won’t have the amenity that Google Fiber provides that everyone is waiting for.

Jacksonville neighborhoods with Google Fiber is not a science fiction story. The city was scheduled to be one of the next to receive the service. So although plans may be stifled, there is still a great chance of Google Fiber coming to Jacksonville soon.

Have you ever seen wild dolphins before? Well, now that you have used your Jacksonville movers, you can see wild dolphins anytime you want to.

Take advantage of the remaining summer months by taking a cruise on one of the Jekyll Island Dolphin Tours. With US Coast Guard Certified boats, you can rest assured knowing that you and your whole family will be kept safe while on the trip.
