As a Walmart employee, we are always glad to give boxes of any size to anyone who needs them! The cardboard bailer is honestly way more frustrating that just giving the boxes away!
Truth, ex-Walmart employee here. I hated cardboard bailer! And I NEVER made a bail, my husband (who also worked there) was always called to the back room to make bail. But of crouse they have to caught you with the boxes before you make it to said bailer.
For anyone needing boxes for moving go to your local grocery store or Walmart. Just ask if you can have some of there boxes.They will give them to you for free!! It's what I do when I need to move. Free always come in handy
My family uses Wendy's fry boxes when we need them! They're heavy duty, a good size, and for the most part pretty clean. I'll have to ask next time I'm at Walmart though 😉
I love moving. The stress takes my mind off of other stresses in life! And also its a great chance to filter through the old things to make room for the new!
I actually kept all my food in the fridge and taped it closed and had it moved to the new place and turned on right away and all my stuff were good , exactly like a cooler.
You forgot a very important one for people who aren’t moving with movers: If you have especially heavy boxes, GET WORK GLOVES. The kinds with the grips on the palms. It makes it SO MUCH EASIER.
Boxing everything is a great tip. Last year, when we moved I didn't realize it would be such a problem. My bedroom had a lot of things left that were not in boxes and it took longer than necessary to take everything. Another good tip is to purge anything you won't need. It saves space and time when you are moving.
Also, if you have the time, seize the opportunity to go through and detox all your stuff! Last time I moved to Seattle, I went through my wardrobe and wound up making a couple hundred dollars at buffalo exchange. Takes time though, but then there's less stuff to move!
who "buys" boxes? Like, you can get them for free almost anywhere, drugstores, supermarkets, pharmacys. I got a HUGE box full with folded boxes inside for free at my regular supermarket. Boom, I didn't waste a single $ and then it goes to recycle
Exactly! I've moved a gazillion times and never bought a single box, I just get them from stores. I just ask an employee and they're usually very willingn to help, especially when they're stocking shelves. Sometimes I've been told to go to the back if they've already put them out, I just have to put them back together with mailing tape, but either way it's just very easy to get free boxes of different sizes. Just got some more boxes from a supermarket a couple of days ago. Walmart is also a very good place to get boxes, late at night when they're stocking shelves is the best time, you can get all different sizes from different departments in one single round.
Haha the small box thing is SO key! I packed all my books into a huge box and was super impressed with myself getting them all to fit so neatly and perfectly, doh - literally couldn't lift it, I was unpacking it 5 minutes later 😑
GEt Banana Boxes from supermarket! OMG- I have boxes for like 12 years! Banana's smoosh easily so the boxes for them are reinforced and HAVE HANDLES! AMAZING.
Another helpful tip is to make a spreadsheet if you want to get really specific about what is in each box. (Or just to take inventory of what you own.) I label each box with a number and write the destination. For example Box #1 Kitchen, and then in a google spreadsheet list what exactly is in the box, like sponges.
moving in a few weeks! definitely will use that kind of tape instead of buying the clear tape. also, i work at a grocery store and i'm taking boxes from there. please please ask the grocery for boxes. we get too much shit and too much cardboard.
Great tips! We're moving Friday and it's going much smoother than in the past. Love your overalls tip! And something that really helped me was a list I made last time with all the phone #'s and account #'s for utilities, credit cards, etc. and a check list to go down to remember to change addresses w/magazines, drivers license, registration, post office, etc. I'm so glad I saved it all. Oh, and we invested in about 10 plastic bins from home depot a few years back and the handles really help with the extra heavy stuff like books.
You truly are beautiful Stephanie, I'm so glad I found you on UA-cam. You're so pure and I feel like I can trust you. You're basically a hip Mary Poppins (practically perfect in every way)
On UA-cam everyone is beautiful. Not like in the real world where we have to deal with ugly people. Ewww... ugly people! What could ugly people possibly know about moving?
Don't buy boxes, all stores have boxes they will throw away after they restock at night. Call them and ask if they can save them for u or go in at midnight and yonk them. Also Number your boxes and make a paper list of what's in 1-30, u could even take a picture. Easier to check a list than 30 boxes.
If you do not have overalls you can also have like a fanny pack with those essentials. I kept a scissor, tape and markers on my plastic fanny pack and it was life changing on the process 😅
@ 5:10 You can also use an apron with big blousy pockets to hold all your markers, sticky-tape and measuring tape- also an important critical item for moving into a place & good to keep handy. Might also want to keep cheap heavy leather-handed gardening gloves and a few band-aids, and a tube of triple antibiotic ointment, as I know these are essential for moves. Believe it or not the gloves seem to give extra strength! It's a weird sensation, but maybe it's mechanism is to trick the mind into ignoring distracting things like the textures of boxes, and lets your hands focus more on the important things like power-lifting, hefting and slinging boxes onto the hand-truck & into the moving truck.
I've moved quite a few times too so one good tip is to use garbage bags to stuff clothes in. Easy no hassle and reusable too! but do remember to label them! ;) I like the Glad forceflex ones.
I'm thinking about moving but I don't know how to move with my grandma and grandpa always pushing me to do different things and plus I have a disease known as Sickle cell animea which makes it hard to do different things let alone move things around the house!!!!!!! But hey, GOD gave me another day to do me so I ain't got nothing to complain about. And I'm kinda glad the man upstairs gave me Sickle cell animea cause now that I have the disease I can do things like go to the Gulfstream Goodwill Transaction to life Academy and hang out with my buddies Willie, Thomas, and Freddy!!!!! My guys for life!!!!!!!!!!
Packing a travel bag is so smart! I could use a 'soothing sista,' new subscriber here! Watching this made me realize how far along I am since I've already moved most of my stuff but now need all my personal belongings and my entire wardrobe and somewhere to put it, but still, a little less to worry about so I'm less overwhelmed now! Love this cute brick wall background!
thanks so much for your tips- especially your tape tip is THE BEST!!! I thought I knew a lot about tape but I did not know this tape and it is amazing and thank you so much for featuring this- you are the best! take good care
Terrific, thanks…great ideas. I buy new boxes and number them and keep a special book with a complete detailed list of what's in each box in case one gets lost, then I know what to replace, especially my books. I've moved 28 times in my life and I've never had a problem with any mover. Thanks again, great video.
Number your boxes and keep a separate list of what’s in them, don’t write on the box. Definitely box everything and keep excellent records, make sure they exactly match the movers or you have no claim. My movers stole all items of value I didn’t take myself, please learn from my mistakes.
best moving tip I've ever learned- get some moving straps for heavy furniture. A duo using some straps can lift damn near anything. I was so freaked out having to move a couch by myself cause my wife is a little girl like in the video here (lul), was afraid I was going to tear it up. My father in law lent some straps to us and I gave it a whirl with the wife. We lifted that couch like it was 100% cotton. Other times I've had to move furniture either solo, where I'd have to drag it and fuck it up, or with other people, one person always needs to reaffirm their grip making it take 3=5x as long. Huge huge huge help. Never underestimate leverage and teamwork. edit- I think this is common knowledge and wasn't worth mentioning but there are 2 kinds of boxes you should look for. Grocery store boxes, and you can get creative with that. When I worked in a store bakery we were always happy to provide a shitton of boxes to anyone that asked. They get crushed and recycled otherwise so you're hurting absolutely nothing. Second. It's still in stores, but is so handy it needs to be mentioned separately. PRODUCE SECTION BANANA BOXES. These are fantastic for your medium to small items due to the open tops. They're sturdy, and don't require any tape to seal. I will never move without having at least 5 banana boxes on hand.
I moved last summer and I did not think of packing a suitcase of essentials... So of course I was going through every box trying to find my tooth brush. These tips were really helpful! Thanks so much!
Also, I highly recommend those plastic lidded storage bins instead of boxes, they’re reusable, I use them for holiday decorations and out of season clothes and coats. They also stack really well. I used about 10 for my move but I lay need 3 for regular storage, stacked they only take up 1/4 of a tiny hall closet
Hey here's another tip!! You don't need to buy boxes. Whenever I was moving, I went to Walmart at night time when they were unpacking all their boxes and just asked them if I could have some of their empty boxes. Go for the toilet paper aisle or the cereal aisle. You'll score some nice big boxes there!
You’re so right about the paper tape. Other tapes doubles one’s energy spent on packing because it takes so much time to find the edge of that damn clear (and expensive) tape - that reqires scissors or a knife to cut. I’m moving and dread it, but as much as I want to move on the cheap, I’m taking your advice and hiring professional movers. Thanks for the helpful vid!
This is my first time moving in 20 years. I never help anyone move even though I own a pickup. I've said in the pass. When I'm ready to move. I will hire professionals. I have a bad back and I hate stairs.
Lots of great ideas! I disagree with the overalls idea though. I do know how easy it is to lose track of your tape or markers, but I think for me it would be better to keep a basket/container in each area that you can put the markers/tape etc in after using each time. I go to the bathroom too often to wear overalls 😬
I'm in the middle of moving this weekend and I amazingly followed most of these before seeing this video. I would just add, don't procrastinate on packing. It makes it so much easier if you're not rushing to finish everything in a couple of days.
I'm hopefully moving soon and these were definitely really handy tips, I've definitely investing in some of that tape! Instead of buying boxes I've been hoarding all the packaging and delivery boxes I get so that I can use those for moving! x
this is such a great vid!! i'm moving out of halls and into a house for my second year of uni, and i'm putting things into storage for when i go back home (in another country) for hols. great tips!
i'm moving in two weeks and youtube just suggested me this video, thank you, you are a life saver, i would have never thought of the toilet paper or sponges! :D
I've been subbed to your channel for a long while and I remember watching this video when it came out bc I loved your content, and here I am 7 years later watching this again as I make my first official move from my parents' place as a graduate moving in with their partner to a new town :'-) thanks for everything Stephanie. (definitely gonna hold onto that USE THE BOXES tip bc I was about to just toss everything in reusable shopping bags/totes and then toss those in the trailer lmaoo, the stacking will definitely make a difference)
Thanks Stephanie, I hate moving and have moved 5 times in 8 years as a single mum with four kids. Each year I get better but you have certainly covered everything and so easily thanks Stephanie. I move again this week 😬😎🇦🇺
I wish I had this vid when I moved house! it is SO useful and I agree with EVERYTHING you said here! I love how you demonstrated all the tips too! :) fantastic video!!
The small box idea just occurred to me a couple weeks ago, and I bought regular office boxes. Easy to move around and re-usable later for paperwork & lots of other stuff.
If your moving on the cheap; some places charge more than others. you can get free boxes at many grocery store produce departments and news papers instead of bubble wrap at $30 a roll, good luck!
Who is moving soon too??
Amanda Collins me mee meee meeee meeeee meeeeee meeeeeee so excited
Amanda Collins today we got the house!!!
Meeee so happy new room fresh start moving from downtown the hood shooting and killing so happy 😁😁😁
Me ..
moving in a few months
As a Walmart employee, we are always glad to give boxes of any size to anyone who needs them! The cardboard bailer is honestly way more frustrating that just giving the boxes away!
And I've always appreciated that! 😉
Dang my boyfriend just bought us boxes from Walmart 🤣
bet
Truth, ex-Walmart employee here. I hated cardboard bailer! And I NEVER made a bail, my husband (who also worked there) was always called to the back room to make bail.
But of crouse they have to caught you with the boxes before you make it to said bailer.

For anyone needing boxes for moving go to your local grocery store or Walmart. Just ask if you can have some of there boxes.They will give them to you for free!! It's what I do when I need to move. Free always come in handy
same😂
or liquor stores!!!!
Agreed! Never EVER buy boxes. Waste of money.
My family uses Wendy's fry boxes when we need them! They're heavy duty, a good size, and for the most part pretty clean. I'll have to ask next time I'm at Walmart though 😉
+Haley C Thank you, never ever thought about Wendy's. I'm packing now moving again 😊
I love moving. The stress takes my mind off of other stresses in life! And also its a great chance to filter through the old things to make room for the new!
Omg!!!! THANK YOU FOR PUTTING IT LIKE THAT!!!
I actually kept all my food in the fridge and taped it closed and had it moved to the new place and turned on right away and all my stuff were good , exactly like a cooler.
Thank you for not calling them "hacks" 😄
That drives me nuts!!!! Thanks for thanking her!!!
@@jenniferstarlight3173 that’s a lot of thanking 😂
@@a1den623 Thanks for pointing that out 😂
Yes! Thank You!
Clicked on this video because this wasn't labelled "hacks" ☺️
You forgot a very important one for people who aren’t moving with movers:
If you have especially heavy boxes, GET WORK GLOVES. The kinds with the grips on the palms. It makes it SO MUCH EASIER.
Thanks for that advice. I'll note that
Yes!! I wrote that in my comment. Strange effect= gloves seem to confer amazing super-powers, like a 25% boost in strength
Literally moving for the first time by myself in a month! Thank you endlessly.
+xoLoveLeti | Cruelty-Free Beauty you go girl, its a very gratifying experience
keira diegel Same im moving in i little less than a month anf im too excited.
How did it go? :)
Another tip when using movers KEEP ALL OF YOUR JEWELRY, KEYS AND MONEY ON YOU!!! Move those things yourself!!
Boxing everything is a great tip. Last year, when we moved I didn't realize it would be such a problem. My bedroom had a lot of things left that were not in boxes and it took longer than necessary to take everything. Another good tip is to purge anything you won't need.

Lauriti yea most of the time tho the store calls that stealing , so you cant jus go and grab boxes
I always go around to the liquor stores and ask for boxes. They’re always happy to get rid of them and even help me load them up most of the time
Exactly! I've moved a gazillion times and never bought a single box, I just get them from stores. I just ask an employee and they're usually very willingn to help, especially when they're stocking shelves. Sometimes I've been told to go to the back if they've already put them out, I just have to put them back together with mailing tape, but either way it's just very easy to get free boxes of different sizes.

Walmart is also a very good place to get boxes, late at night when they're stocking shelves is the best time, you can get all different sizes from different departments in one single round.
Iluv Merengue yup! That’s the best way
Or order them from postal mail store online or locally :)
Haha the small box thing is SO key! I packed all my books into a huge box and was super impressed with myself getting them all to fit so neatly and perfectly, doh - literally couldn't lift it, I was unpacking it 5 minutes later 😑
Oh snap the tip on packing toilet paper and etc in your suitcase is genius! Thanks!

I didn't even think to ask the grocery stores. Do we just go to the customer service counter and ask?
How did it go?
Great tips! We're moving Friday and it's going much smoother than in the past. Love your overalls tip!

Melissa Scales why are you focusing on looks and not content? sexist much?
Doug sillig geez louis she just said she likes the actual youtuber. can she compliment her w/o hate?!?
On UA-cam everyone is beautiful. Not like in the real world where we have to deal with ugly people. Ewww... ugly people! What could ugly people possibly know about moving?

can't wait for a proper tour when you're all finished unpacking
I've moved quite a few times too so one good tip is to use garbage bags to stuff clothes in. Easy no hassle and reusable too! but do remember to label them! ;) I like the Glad forceflex ones.
Gotta love that exposed brick! What we've been able to see of the new place looks really neat!
Its weird but i kinda like these kinds of vids more than the beauty stuff haha 😅
They become so repetitive after a while!
+Ramnik D I know right! There are like 1000000 beautygurus now... I just like hearing Stephanie talk really, could be about anything lol
exactly. I am freakin obsessed with makeup and beauty but I don't find much new content anymore since 783409124790 people are "gurus"

I love the travel pack tip because trying to find your stuff in the middle of a move is incredibly frustrating.
thanks so much for your tips- especially your tape tip is THE BEST!!! I thought I knew a lot about tape but I did not know this tape and it is amazing and thank you so much for featuring this- you are the best! take good care
I refer to this video before every move. Thanks so much

Diedre Lambert do you mean write down EVERYTHING in there ? Like if you have 7 makeup brushes , to write that down ?

Thank you SO MUCH! (I didn't move with boxes I tried to use random bags and containers and it wasn't a great idea so YES boxes are IMPORTANT).
Best moving tips online. Doing my second move today and it's great to re-listen to this clip as a reminder of what to do! Thank-you.
Moving halfway across the country (16 hours drive!) in September. Getting ready to start packing now!
Also, I highly recommend those plastic lidded storage bins instead of boxes, they’re reusable, I use them for holiday decorations and out of season clothes and coats. They also stack really well. I used about 10 for my move but I lay need 3 for regular storage, stacked they only take up 1/4 of a tiny hall closet
Brown tape is at UHaul too! $2!
Solid video. Thank you for saying to put everything in boxes. I moved people for 4 years and no one seemed to understand that point.
YESSSS I needed this! I'm definitely moving in the next two months, thank you sooooo much Steph!
On labeling boxes:
I write numbers on mine, and contents on a separate sheet of paper. It's a life saver.
SO HELPFUL! I'm constantly moving back & forth because of college. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
This was actually really helpful Steph! Thank you heaps 🙌
If you don't want to wear overalls you can always put on a kitchen apron that has pockets. I did that last time I moved and it was "clutch"!
Perfect timing for students moving into dorms soon! Thank youu
Hey here's another tip!! You don't need to buy boxes.

I’m moving and dread it, but as much as I want to move on the cheap, I’m taking your advice and hiring professional movers. Thanks for the helpful vid!
love you steph, you're an amazing youtuber
You did a fantastic job. Great tips. I am going try the tape.
This is my first time moving in 20 years. I never help anyone move even though I own a pickup. I've said in the pass. When I'm ready to move. I will hire professionals. I have a bad back and I hate stairs.
I'm not even close to moving anytime soon, but I couldn't skip the video cause I know you give out the best advice! You the best!!
Lots of great ideas! I disagree with the overalls idea though. I do know how easy it is to lose track of your tape or markers, but I think for me it would be better to keep a basket/container in each area that you can put the markers/tape etc in after using each time. I go to the bathroom too often to wear overalls 😬
That tape looks amazing! I hate regular packing tape and this option looks so much better.
I'm in the middle of moving this weekend and I amazingly followed most of these before seeing this video. I would just add, don't procrastinate on packing. It makes it so much easier if you're not rushing to finish everything in a couple of days.
I'm starting to pack in small sections in my apartment now so when the day comes time to move, everything will be done already
THANK YOU! I'm moving house and I hating packing, this makes me feel a little better.
These were awesome tips...some I didn't even think about!! LOVE the tape...hate the clear one with the dispenser!
Packing tape idea was sooo helpful!❤❤❤
I'm hopefully moving soon and these were definitely really handy tips, I've definitely investing in some of that tape! Instead of buying boxes I've been hoarding all the packaging and delivery boxes I get so that I can use those for moving! x
yes, don't buy boxes. another tip...go to your local drugstore,Walmart, or food market...ask and they will gladly give you some for free!
I love these organizational videos! So helpful!
In the process of moving right now. This was right on time!
I’m moving to Florida from new jersey🤦🏽♀️ I’m not ready 😌
Great tips on moving! Can't wait for a tour when you're done packing!
Thank you for giving me an excuse to take a break 🥵 your advice was helpful, especially that tape!!
This is literally perfect! I was just packing before I decided to take a break and see what's new rom my subscriptions. Thanks! :D
i'm about to move to Australia for uni and found this so useful! thank you Steph!
this is such a great vid!! i'm moving out of halls and into a house for my second year of uni, and i'm putting things into storage for when i go back home (in another country) for hols. great tips!
So extremely helpful! Thank you!!!! 💖💖 I'm moving to my university dorm in 5 weeks. As always looking BEAUTIFUL!
These were actually some really great tips, a few things you would never think of until the day of lol

Ive found its best to start sorting / packing early . I used to leave things to the last few days . Oh no . Never again . What a nightmare .lol
Luvd itt! I don't like videos that make me feel brain dead, yours are always sharp af 💖
Incase you’re wondering what kind of video this is, one of the tips is “wear overalls”. Yep.
girl you are so clutch for this! mad helpful!
Holy crap. This is honestly super helpful cause some of the things you said, Ive never thought about when I'm moving lol. Thanks steph!! :D
moving away for uni at the end of summer, this vid was so helpful!
Checked my subscription box while procrastinating my massive packing day today! Insane timing, thank you!
I'm moving in August and this was superhelpful, thanks!!
Yeah, I'd love more talk videos from you!
i'm moving in two weeks and youtube just suggested me this video, thank you, you are a life saver, i would have never thought of the toilet paper or sponges! :D
what do you do with all the used boxes after you're done moving? do you keep them in storage for next time or recycle them?
love the tip of packing everything in on suitcase that you need--then packing everything else without penalty or worry :)! thank you!
I'm moving from Dublin, Ireland to Perth, Australia and I have a pretty big house so this helps sooooo much 😂😂👌🏾
How did it go, and which companies did you use? How do you like Perth?
I've been subbed to your channel for a long while and I remember watching this video when it came out bc I loved your content, and here I am 7 years later watching this again as I make my first official move from my parents' place as a graduate moving in with their partner to a new town :'-) thanks for everything Stephanie. (definitely gonna hold onto that USE THE BOXES tip bc I was about to just toss everything in reusable shopping bags/totes and then toss those in the trailer lmaoo, the stacking will definitely make a difference)
seriously this video came out just at the right time for me cause Im getting ready for a huge move
Thanks Stephanie, I hate moving and have moved 5 times in 8 years as a single mum with four kids. Each year I get better but you have certainly covered everything and so easily thanks Stephanie. I move again this week 😬😎🇦🇺
The texture of your house is very interesting ! What is the brand of your glasses btw ? They look really cool
this is actually super helpful because I'm getting to start packing for the summer and college
This is perfect timing because I'm moving out of my dorm on the 18th :) thanks Steph! ❤️
