    1. You can get free pre-divided boxes from the liquor store.
    2. The last thing to put on your truck is your mattress and bed frame with a box of sheets. The first thing you do when you get to the new place is put your bed together and make it with sheets and blankets. At the end of the day you will be exhausted, the last thing you want to do is have to put your bed together before you can go to sleep!

    Additions:
    1. Nice for people helping you move: Make sure there is toilet paper, hand soap and a hand towel in the bathroom at both places (Old & new) for everyone to use as well as water bottles in the fridge and granola bars at both.
    2. Clean the new place before you move in if you can so you move into a clean, ready space.
    3. Create a spreadsheet for yourself so you know what’s in each box

    All plates are to be packed up and down in the box and not flat because if the box is dropped your plates will break. Professional packed showed me....and today I have moved more than 10 times across the country. Have a book to write what's in the box with a number on box. Boxes are stollen when things are shown on boxes. With a number on box ...you know if a box is missing.

    Another tip, to pack your towels and linen in your landary baskets. Also if your moving a short distance just lay your clothes with the hangers on in the back of your car, and pillows blankets in trash bags rather than boxes are easier to move.

  • @vkents1714
    @vkents1714 3 роки тому +18

    Pro tip! If you have lots of items and will keep them contained, DO NOT USE CARDBOARD BOXES. Buy large plastic containers. Cardboard boxes can be destroyed in floods, eaten by pests, or just eventually weaken/disintegrate in time. Use plastic containers instead, they're perfect and can be used over and over again!
    I moved a fair number of times in my life and the cardboard boxes were always annoying. Going to multiple different places and asking for boxes so many times becomes a hassle, so instead I just went to my depot and bought like 50 large containers, numbered them, listed the contents, and that shit went a lot smoother. Goodluck packing everyone! Preserve your sanity.

  • @dliciousgurl41
    @dliciousgurl41 5 років тому +228

    I disagree with washing everything before you move. In my experience everything gets dusty, dirty, everything is touched by different people, and spills happen along the way. It’s just inevitable. Everything will get dirty. Just wash afterwards. The double work is really not worth it.

  • @lynn4259
    @lynn4259 4 роки тому +5

    We did kind of the opposite for our dog, but it worked out. He gets really stressed with packing so we sent him to his daycare/boarding for a few days while we did the major packing. That way he just enjoyed daycare and wasn't worried about our house being turned inside out. We did our in town move without him and set up all his blankets/toys/etc so that when he got to his new home it was already full of familiar smells. Definitely DON'T wash your pet blankets before moving! Let the smell get into the new home.

  • @barbarianatgate2000
    @barbarianatgate2000 4 роки тому +6

    We moved twice within 11 months. One thing I can recommend if you can is to place furniture first. Then take all boxes that are not essential and store them in basement or climate controlled garage. This way, you aren't sitting in a mountain of boxes and feeling stressed about how much there is to unpack before you can feel comfortable. Store the boxes grouped by room, and then unpack 1 room at a time. At the end of a long day, trying to relax among that much clutter will be tough. But, sitting down in your comfortable living room with all the boxes out of view makes it much easier mentally speaking.

    We downsized from 1400 ft to 750 ft a year ago and we are in our 70's. So you can imagine all the purging we did on BOTH ends. Believe it or not we had over 100 boxes. It was an amazing feat. My best suggestion is to make sure the first thing you do when you get to the new place is to get your bed all set up and dressed. That way you have it ready so you can drop right into it when need be. Good luck. Can't wait to see your new home......

    Pro tip on getting boxes from stores: ask them to set them aside for you before you go - most will. Otherwise we toss them in the baler and they get crushed to oblivion. I used to work for a large grocery store and we were always happy to do that!

    I’ve moved 3 times in the last 5 years and am planning for our next move which is happening the day after Christmas! So, I definitely feel like an expert. We are hoping the next place is a keeper. We are downsizing and upgrading, so lots and lots of purging to fit into a smaller space. I start packing super early, a month early, otherwise I feel very overwhelmed. The plate and glasses boxes are worth the slight splurge. We also had boxes stolen the first time we moved and used moving helpers. They stole my husbands video games. So, the last two moves I started a system where instead of writing what’s in the box, I number the boxes and keep a list for myself of what is in each box. Then I just write on the top of the box what room it is going to.

  • @MsSherrydarling
    @MsSherrydarling 4 роки тому +7

    I'm moving in two weeks and thought I should revisit this one again! I have numbered all my boxes as I pack them and then in my bullet journal I am listing what is in each box. I put basic info on the box like bakeware or books and whether it's fragile or not. This is my 12th move and I've learned a lot on the way. Getting started with the packing a month or two ahead takes the pressure off near the end. I am also cleaning as I go so that I will just have one final wipe down of floors and bathroom to do. I plan on being finished all the packing 3 or 4 days before the actual move. This time I am definitely purging as I pack. I don't want to have to pack and unpack things I no longer want or need. I love the idea of the coloured tape on the boxes. I will zone my new place and have a colour for each zone. Great tip about the small and large box packing! I have done that this time and have small boxes for books and heavy things. Wish me luck!

    Great tips! The last time I moved was 6 months ago and I'm currently moving again because I just purchased my 1st home. I purge every 6 months or so because I hate clutter.What helps is that I keep my items in organization containers so I'm able to just load up the containers and just put them in boxes.
    I buy a roll of bubble wrap, packing tape and packing paper. I was lucky this time and was able to get boxes from a friend who just moved. I've been using the same moving company for years for international and domestic.

    @LB-vl3qn 5 років тому +2

    If you are using a moving service, rather than write the contents of each box on the box itself, number them and write the contents on a corresponding list of each box by number. Especially good for valuables that could go missing during a busy move. You can also get more detail this way, which helps if you're looking for a specific item. I used this method last time we moved three years ago when we had over 600 boxes. It was a lifesaver. Congrats on your new house! ~ Lisa

    My husband and I are getting ready to make our 7th move in 4 years(for both our jobs) and yes, it's as exhausting as it sounds, lol! I would suggest hitting the grocery store for a cooler(if you don't have one), healthier snacks/meals, a case of or a couple gallons of water and a bag of ice. Doing this has prevented me from wasting money on fast food or at convenience stores, and keeps the road trip moving with less stops. This way you can have a little extra money left over to tip your pro movers or buy your amateur movers(aka fam and buds) pizzas and drinks, lol! Good luck with the move! ♡

  • @okayjanaiy
    @okayjanaiy 3 роки тому +1

    Another tip! Use totes/luggage instead of boxes especially if youre gonna be moving a lot(college or apartment) cause they’re reusable and you can store in them. And instead of buying paper to wrap dishes use old newspaper or ask for a few extra paper bags at the grocery store

    UHaul has sets of boxes that they ship to your house; you pick apartment, 1-2 bedroom house, etc and they give you a nice mix. Of course most people will need to customize the list and that's easy to do when ordering. Includes boxes for books, china/glasses, and electronics.

    All great tips. Really enjoyed the tip for dogs. Moved from large 3200 square foot home in 2003 to smaller 2600 square foot home. Sold this house June 16th and looking for a smaller house. Just starting to get organized, de-cluttering, purging and packing. Not looking forward to this process again but I'm looking forward to cleaning less and travelling more.

  • @ajismom9267

    I luv the idea of marking boxes with different colored tapes. Also I'd put each shoe in a grocery plastic bag before putting them in luggages or boxes. Also I'd put clothes or clean towels in clean garbage bags before putting them in boxes incase boxes get wet your things will stay clean and dry. I bought and saved home depot boxes in the storage closet for the next move.

  • @theorywynn1286

    Aussie here! We use newspaper to pack things because you can get it from businesses once they're done with it, and family members. My partners currently getting their works old ones instead of them throwing it out :)

    We moved abroad a year ago and are moving back in two months, gives me shivers when I think about packing and unpacking everything 😩 Great tip if you move abroad - number your boxes and write down a list of what’s in them, when you get to the destination and the delivery man arrives- cross out the numbers in your list- this way you make sure no boxes were lost in transit ( trust me , we lost one and were able to identify it on the spot )

    Hi, we moved from a large 3bedroom house 2 years ago into our forever home, a small 2bedroom bungalow. Our children had both grown and flown. Oh my goodness. I needed this video back then, we still have boxes we haven’t unpacked in our loft, and in our summerhouse (that we haven’t been able to use yet). I so need to get sorted out, but it’s been so long now, and just the thought of it all makes me sad, because I did a big unboxing a few weeks ago, and threw away over 30 years of diary’s and holiday journals. At the time I was so happy to be rid of such a big heavy box, but soon after I felt so very sad, I intended to read all those books in old age to keep my mind active, and I’ve always written a lot each day, now all those memories have gone. So please don’t throw away until your 100% sure. I will get around to all the rest of it soon I hope.xxxxxx
