1. First, take a sad picture of your old place and a happy picture of your new place!
If you're ever back on the market, you'll want a bare photo of your new place.
2. Color code your tape. Choose a different color for each room in your new home.
3. And use your strongest tape to create simple box handles.
4. Keep your clothes on their hangers and wrap 'em.
5. Slip Styrofoam plates in between your real plates.
6. Make plastic wrap your best friend.
Wrapping shelves and drawers saves you major unloading / reloading time.
7. Pack books in suitcases instead of boxes.
8. Pack your TV in its original box, or at least cover the screen with a blanket.
You don't want to scratch your most important possession.
9. Don't try to slide furniture without sliders. You could even use Frisbees!
Furniture sliders will save your back. That way, you can play Frisbee afterward.
