Time to move into a bigger place?

You can spend more time enjoying your new space than wondering where something is or trying to repair a broken piece of furniture.

1. Write a packing list

Having a list is always helpful so that you don’t forget anything. Make sure to include important documents: birth certificate, social security card, car paperwork, medical records etc.

2. Start packing months inadvance.

You have a lot of stuff. It’s better to start packing in phases than be overwhelmed by trying to do it all at once. Don’t forget to label your boxes with what’s in it and what room it should go in.

3. Be creative when packing fragile items.

Don’t pack all the heavy things in one box. Vary your boxes with small and large items to evenly distribute the weight.
