Organizing A Nearly Stress Free Move-Part 2

When the month is half over, call to confirm the moving date with whoever is providing the moving truck. Rent or purchase a hand truck to make the move easier and quicker. Make a list of things you need to do and organize the list by importance. Purchase the tape and bubble wrap and all moving supplies and begin packing a little bit every day so that you are not rushed for time at the end of the month.
Minimize your stress by starting in one room and making your way through the house one room at a time. Label every box you fill with name of the room it came from and the theme of the objects. For example, starting in the office with your books, label your box “Office, books”. It will be much easier to find what you need later on if you have an idea what is in each box.
When you load the truck, you will apply the same principle. Start one room at a time, keeping the boxes from each room together on the truck. When you unload, you can unload one room at a time too, so you won’t be darting to each corner of the house delivering boxes.
