Ø Packing List
Before you start stuffing items in boxes, sit down and make a list of rooms you need to pack. Pack each room on a fixed schedule and stick to deadlines for each room. After this packing schedule is made you should follow these four packing tips:
Start Packing In the Areas Least Used In Your Home
It is easier to pack up rooms that are used very little and have very few items than rooms used frequently with many items within it. Examples of rooms that usually have very little utilization are reading and entertainment rooms. Bathrooms and the kitchen should be one of the last rooms you pack because it is utilized the most often.
Always pack decorations before packing necessities such as cookware and toiletries. You may need these up to the last few days prior to your move.
Make Categories
It will be easier to find boxes when you move and after you move if boxes are labeled with categories. Here are a few useful categories (this includes subcategories as well) to keep you organized:
Ø Clothing
Ø Kitchenware
Ø Books
Ø Bags
Ø Footwear
Sub Categorizes:
Ø Plates and Bowls
Ø Cups
Ø Utensils
Throw Away or Give Away Unwanted Items
When moving it is normal to discover items you no longer want or need. Do not bring these items to your new home. Throw the items away or give away unwanted items.
Label Every Item
To prevent you from misplacing or forgetting items during the big move, label all of your items. It is best to use dark colored markers and write/type all items in bold.
