Time
First, you need to set a realistic time goals to pack your belongings in your moving boxes. Start by marking dates on the calendar so you know when you need to start packing, in order to have everything packed by the moving day. This can help you visualize the task ahead and you will be able to adjust accordingly.
Sort
In each room of your home, you need to identify the items that you will be getting rid of. This will eliminate any confusion once you start packing. If you can sort through what you need to keep and what you need to discard the rest of the packing will be a piece of cake.
What to pack first?
The first thing you want to do is pack the non-essential items of every room. You don’t want to pack the items that you will need in the few days prior to your move. You pack your essentials on the day of the move or the day before.
All other non-essential items can be packed into the moving boxes. Be sure to go room by room, and pack items efficiently.
Pack your clothes
When it comes to packing your clothes, be sure to pack the clothes you will actually keep. If you have clothes that you no longer need, donate them.
Maximize space
When it comes to packing boxes, you want to fill the larger boxes with small or light objects and keep the smaller boxes for heavier objects. The boxes will be more compact, making it easier to move and will reduce the chance of something breaking.
Label your boxes properly
Labelling boxes is the most important task. When it’s time to unpack, you will certainly be at peace knowing what’s in each of your boxes. It will be much easier to put things back in order into your new place in no time.
