I try to hoard as many boxes as I can from work, and pack wayyy ahead of time. 2011 was a move-free year for me, but I’m going to be moving at the end of July this year. I’ve decided to get movers this time and pack everything myself. That being said though, I’m still going to rent a vehicle for moving my fragile stuff, clothes, and the inevitable Ikea run (or two, or three). I’m also going to spring for professional cleaners this time as well.

I really like your plan for organizing things before you pack them. Normally I go through everything after I move, but I think I’m going to switch it up and make sure I don’t move things I really don’t need!

So we really only have to clean. Which you’re right, it’s much easier without your stuff in the place.

Oh, and eat as much of your food as you can before the big day.

I like to have a small bag of essentials with toiletries, towel, outfit for tomorrow, etc to make the morning-after-moving easier. And usually, it’s just easier to buy dinner on the day.

They came in 4 colours, so I assigned each colour a purpose: Kitchen, unpack immediately, unpack soon, unpack at leisure. Each box got a sticker. When we got my current home, my friends and I stacked the boxes in different piles by colour. This made it REALLY helpful when it came time to unpack. The next time I move, I’ll do this again.
