4. Secure your pet in the back of your car and stop them from getting all mingled up with your belongings.
5. Throw blankets or quilts over all your furniture to stop scuffs during travel.
6. Declutter and start going through expired toiletries and food early before you start truly moving.
7. Donate or sell the stuff you don't wear, need, or use!

11. Throw together a "24-hour box" with stuff you'll absolutely need when you walk in the door of your new home.

21. Or if that one piece of furniture is REALLY tough to move, this 1,000-pound dolly will handle it with ease.
22. Loop up all your loose cables and keep them from tangling with tagged zip ties.
