10 Ways the Serve App Can Help You Move
Moving is never a simple undertaking. But the Serve App can make it easier. Whether you're moving yourself and need a helping hand or you're that helping hand, it's time for your church community to step up.
Here are 10 ideas to get you started:
1. Help loading the truck - The most obvious way the Serve App can help is the move itself. Post your volunteer needs and get some strong helping hands to load the truck. You can even add multiple tasks—people to load the truck, pick up the pizza, entertain the children, etc.
2. Pack the house - You can also recruit help packing boxes, wrapping valuables and getting things ready to move.
3. Give away your stuff - Before you pack you need to clean out the house and get rid of all the stuff you don't want to move. Instead of throwing it away or giving it to Goodwill, share it with your church community.
4. Lend a truck or trailer - If you've got a truck or trailer post it to the Serve App to borrow. Make someone's moving day a little easier.
5. Fridge free for all - When it's time to clean out the fridge, offer up the leftover food to your community instead of throwing it out.
6. Pet watching - One of the many hassles of moving is clearing out of the house during open houses and showings. It's not so bad for you, but finding somewhere for your pets to go is hard. Post the need on the Serve App and find your pet a friend.
7. Painting party - The best time to paint is before you move in, but time is always limited. Collect a crew of willing painters by putting out the word with the Serve App. Be sure to mention the prevalent pizza you'll be providing.
8. Home repair - Ask for help on the Serve App with all the minor home repair projects that come up when you put your house on the market and after you move in. There are always outlet covers to fix and doorstops to install and lots of pesky projects to tackle. Solicit the help of a handy man or woman from your church.
9. Cleaning - Whenever you move in or out there's always cleaning to be done. The old house needs a thorough scrubbing before you're officially out and the new place needs a good spruce. Make your need known to the community and don't go it alone.
10. Boxes to share - When the move is finally done you'll be looking at a mountain of empty boxes in your living room. Share the love and give them away to the next family that's ready to move.
