Person packing and labeling sturdy moving boxes in a bright living room

Start early and pack room by room. Use sturdy boxes, fill empty spaces, and keep the weight manageable. Label the box with the room, type of content, and "fragile" if needed.

Pack Smart

Books should be distributed into small boxes. Plates should be placed on edge with protection. Clothes can be packed in wardrobe boxes. Screws should be placed in labeled bags attached to the correct furniture. Take a picture of cable setups.
