MOVING TIP TUESDAY ๐ฆ
There wonโt always be a parking spot right where you need one outside your apartment building or condo. If you live in or are moving to a big city, there might not be any parking spots at all. You will need to reserve a spot for your moving truck both at the place where you currently live and the place where you are moving.
PACKING TIP TUESDAY ๐ฆ
Pack on a room-by-room basis and do one area of the room at a time. It is best not to mix items from different rooms in one box. To prevent small items from being lost or mistakenly thrown out with the packing paper, wrap miniature knickknacks and other small items in brightly colored tissue paper before placing them in the box.๐ฆ

MOVING TIP TUESDAY ๐ฆ
Create a moving checklist. Draft a moving checklist that includes a timeline. Everyoneโs timeline will look different depending on how much notice is given before the move. Some people will have two months and others might have two weeks. By visually organizing your move, you can keep a handle on events as they unfold. ๐

PACKING TIP TUESDAY ๐ฆ
Set a timer and pack for an hour a day!
Donโt bite off more than you can chew. When it comes to packing, break down your packing into steps. If you procrastinate and try to pack everything the night before, youโll likely become overwhelmed with stress.
Tackle one room at a time and spend an hour each day packing up items into boxes. Pack pairs or sets together and make sure your box is the appropriate size to hold a complete set of belongings.

PACKING TIP TUESDAY ๐ฆ
Invest in quality moving boxes
Itโs tempting to go to your local grocery store and try to score some boxes for free. However, moving boxes are relatively inexpensive, and the added durability can be worth the cost in the end.
Grocery boxes and reused moving boxes can be compromised due to wear and exposure to moisture or worse, a bug infestation. The last thing you want is a box falling apart in your hand while youโre trying to move it into the house.
