Me too! I'm an expert procrastinator.

[@reynasalazar9658]

Make a budget list and moving list. Never rush a move, doesn't work out! Hire moving experts. For peace and comfort. Send out notices. Declutter your stuff. Get rid of things you don't use, get less stressed. Pack little by little every day. Never leave packing at the last minute. Pack a moving essentials tote. So it's accessible during the days of your move in. Give each room a different color label. Don't overpack a box. Too heavy and unlift-able. Use the right size boxes. Put heavy stuff in smaller boxes. Don't leave empty spots in boxes. Shake-proof it, pad it. Bundle all the breakables. Pad these too. Repurpose household items for packaging. Put tiny things inside pots for example. (Or pack your clothes with your plates.) Save space when packing clothes. Fold it or vacuum it. Label and take photos of furniture parts and accessories. Make your things easy to assemble and disassemble. Don't pack hazardous materials with other household materials. Can cause damage. Stock up on packing material for kitchen appliances. (Pad everything so they don't get ruined.) Use plastic wraps to avoid leaks. Bottles and the like. Pack jewelry in small boxes. They get lost in big boxes. Choose a different color for each room. No thin boxes. Also, tape your boxes. Then mark the color of the SIDE of the box. Tape a list at the side of the box. You can use garbage bags. You can vacuum it too. (Especially for compressing pillows and comforters!) Good video!!!

[@clavasore9594]

I always use my towels, sheets and blankets to help pack breakables. I also pack up each bedding set in its own box pillows and all that way when you get where you are going it is easier to open 1 box and make the bed.

[@RaininMortars]

If something were to break, that's broken slithers of glass in your clothes, sheets, towels, etc

[@Anna08371]

@@RaininMortars nothing will break with cloth as a packing material…..unless you throw it off a balcony. 😂

[@celavie8499]

We just signed a new lease today and I've already made 2 garbage bags filled with Goodwill Donation. Donating and decluttering does wonders for your brain and mental health. Especially when you over shop and spend on things you dont need.

[@chasewagner7329]

💯

[@babiiluv22204]

Also pro tip! If you’re not moving far and you regularly hang your clothes, get a big garbage bag and put like 15 hangers together, and poke a hole in the top of the bag, pull the bag down and tie it under the clothes. I use this to live dresses and coats that are always hanging. After moving I hang them up and tear the bag off, all done

[@annavargas3367]

How about if you don't make hole and use the already existing hole opening of the garage bag. Open the ties as wide as they open and come from under the bundle of hanging clothes and use the tie strings to secure hangers tightly together so clothes won't slide off hanger and fall down into the bag.

[@InspiredByEbonyLove]

@@annavargas3367THANK YOU! I’m glad someone said it. Wasting perfectly good trash bags poking holes in them when they already have a giant hole right where you need it.

[@MichelleRichee]

DECLUTTER is so important. Throw out junk and trash. Don't pay movers to haul it to new home. If you start early enough, make sure everything you pack is clean. If you can begin packing and sorting one month in advance, just an hour or so each day keeps you stress free. I picked up some garment bags real cheap at the thrift store. Coats and jackets in one; dresses in one; shirts & other in one. Fold filled garment bag in half and stack them up. If you are moving in the summer, for example you don't need to open the coats & jackets after the move, etc. Pricey jewelry needs to be with you in your car. Pets? Put everything pet related in a couple plastic totes with lids. They have these at the thrift store for $3! Make sure you fill purses with like items, then put them in boxes.

[@annavargas3367]

I have a good packing tip. Sometimes I label the box with its locationl of where I kept it at my old house ie..." Under sink mom's bathroom", so at your new place you'll be needing a cream that you know you kept under the sink in your old bathroom, you'll know which box to go to. Yeah.

[@tobiwalker7145]

I have credit cards with empty balances and hired professional movers who do an excellent job. I'm packing a bit each day and have an essential tote planned. I do tend to overpack weight -- I'm a little old lady and everybody is stronger than I am. My boxes are well-packed. My apartment is small enough that everything goes into the living room unless it's a bed. The chihuahua and the jewelry travel together. Thank you for assuring me I'm on the right track.

[@ana-bananainca790]

Put the jewelry on the chihuahua! ❤

[@salmamadison8465]

Fab tips. One that we used personally and want to share is having a picnic bag in our car so we had plates, forks etc for the takeaway and breakfast the next morn. 😊

[@Jennifer-rv9sb]

Brilliant!!!

[@babiiluv22204]

I never wouldn’t thought of putting the spices in pots

[@AlisonKdecluttershomes]

I'm so happy that you mentioned decluttering! You save money by not paying someone to move what you no longer need or use. And if any of it is sellable, you can actually make money to put towards the move!

[@kennyblare1734]

That's what I'm trying to do right now

[@discountedmovingllc6907]

we added your video to our site 3/24/2023 this is great tips for our customers coming out of FL. Thank you sir!

[@apostrophe.t]

Okay, the vacuum idea is f'n genius.

[@jessicacampbell8097]

I love moving. The stress takes my mind off of other stresses in life! And also its a great chance to filter through the old things to make room for the new! Thank you for the tips!

[@RS54321]

You are unique! I absolutely hate moving-it's one of the most stressful events in life.

[@roxette24]

You’re definitely a unicorn!

[@furbabyangels]

You're so lucky. It's hard af. And I'm pretty organized!! :(

[@inkbl0t3tatface43]

Wow. Understandable. Shes right.. Ngl it's the only time/chance I get to reorganize stuff I rarely touch. Then I'm like- "FUUUCCKK! I SHOULD GET BACK INTO THAT! why is it wasting space? Use it! Damn my crazy creative mind!"

[@sindycroun7714]

Oh! Why haven't I seen your advice before!?! I moved 7 times, always used plastic bags! and i didn't use a vacuum!!! It's so pity for me!!! But, thanks! i'll know now!!! Also, I really liked the tip about marking each room with its own color!

[@gloriasmith4505]

What a great hack using your vacuum cleaner and the trash bags for your clothing and pillows thank you so much

[@AltairsConstellation]

Planning on moving hopefully sometime this year and this is the first time I’ll actually be helping with the move because the last time we moved I was 11, so I’m stocking up on tips to pass the time and make things easier.

[@winterbrianm]

He's on point about packing. Respect! Great tips. Hope he does a video on proper moving techniques, lifting, measuring, removing doors, padding/wrapping, loading, ride securing, and a good beer after.

[@ernrok]

Thanks for the info. Love the color code by room. I number each box as you suggested and create a packing list for each on my phone.

[@HolyRamanRajya]

garbage bag is a great tip but do keep an additional transparent plastic around clothes before putting them in garbage bags. Some recycled bag leak color!

[@ashchickify]

We're currently at a 6 week time frame to move and a weekend to clean for showings.. These tips definitely helped!

[@truthsings7]

Ey everybody's English is a lil different, lettuce chill (Ik it's technically not gramatically correct 😅🙇‍♀️, but I mean the differences in accent & even common grammatical mistakes, which can vary per culture, area, background, etc. make up everyone's unique spoken/expressed °English°. Not saying it's wrong to correct it, I'm sure many ppl would like to know & grow/improve if they're makin a mistake, but like, give the dude a lil break maybe? But that's just me..😅, y'all do u, just wanted to share my 2 cents there I guess 👍)

[@dontcallmeiasha]

lmaoo right

[@CatEyedGoddess]

Actually he’s right about hiring movers. I tried to get family and friends to help but folks are getting older and ppl have lives. I said fuck it, I’ll just pay for movers. It was one less thing I had to worry about. Well worth the money in my opinion.

[@RaccoonRose]

This. This is the video we all need. And I laughed at the DONT pack last minute. I have 2 days to get my bootie moved. 14 years of life moving in two days? It’s fine. I’ll be fine. This is fine. I swear it’s fiiiiiine. 😐

[@BrandiXo]

How was it? I'm watching this video while moving. Been here 16 years. Wish had $ just for moving company to pack everything.

[@megand888]

It’s fiiiinnne 😂😂😂

[@RaccoonRose]

@@BrandiXoIt has been over a year. My move was a 💩 show. I should have packed sooner. It took ALL day. The movers were scheduled for just a few hours. They got paid well so 🤷‍♀️ But seriously. Pack and pack early everyone! And have your advil ready for afterwards!!!

[@WheelYourOwnWay]

Wow!!!! The color coordinating is such a great idea, I have a few months to move into my new house and this video made me feel more confident that it doesn’t have to be a disaster 🤣❤️

[@ApakmanMarquez]

Thanks for the really useful tips! I don't move places all that much, so your professional experiences really count so much!

[@heyitsrachelb1096]

These are amazing tips. I've definitely broken some of these rules. My movers tomorrow are gonna hate me. 😩

[@carolbillings1312]

Great tip about not overfilling your boxes - we helped a friend move and she about killed us trying to lift her monster boxes!

[@MOBAGamingNYC]

If Adam Sandler and Vin Diesel had a baby lol JK, great video tho

[@DavidEvans_dle]

The problem with moving is that none of your friends help you move, even after you helped them move. Renting a Ryder Truck/van and getting help from temporary agency is the way I should have done when moving to my first new house. Had to make multiple trips, lucky it wasn't that far of a journey.

[@LukeExists]

As someone packing for his first move solo, this is crazy helpful. Thank you.

[@flagfootballhighlights]

Never leave paking for the last minute is also great advice.

[@jjmoberly1117]

That vacuum trick alone just saved me a lot of space with bedding and such. Thanks!!!

[@dianarockwell6256]

If you have open household containers of say, laundry detergent or cleansing products, use masking tape in an X form on the cap and or the top of the item. That keeps the lid from coming undone, and keeps the product in the bottle and not all over the box. I also use towels for my collectible knickknacks, which are very breakable. I’ve lost at least one item in every move and I have moved probably close to 10 times in the last 20 years. I always start packing the kitchen and the bathroom items that I have for just in case. And then they stay close to that room so I can access it if they need arises. I write in sharpies on the top and the side of each box for the room. They are going to go into. That way the packer of the truck knows to put all the kitchen stuff together the bathroom stuff together the bedroom stuff together. Biggest tip… Pack the bed last. If the bed is the first thing to come out of the truck at the new location. It goes right to the bedroom and gets put up immediately, that way if everything else stays in boxes for the rest of the day into tomorrow, you still have a place to sleep. I have a lot of crafting items with large boxes of yarn, which is not heavy but it’s cumbersome. The heavy part is the pattern books and there are 2 shelving units full of them. They go in smaller boxes because they’re easier to carry that way.

[@allyg47]

Thanks for the video! I'm moving in two weeks and I still have a ton of packing to do. A lot of stuff I can't pack up until the day before we move because I'm still using it. I've also got a lot of stuff that is awkwardly sized and is difficult to pack - for example: small lamps, lampshades, wreathes, rugs, large vases, etc. I need to find bigger boxes for these things. Luckily, I've hired movers but I'm worried that I packed stuff wrong and they aren't going to be very happy with me. Anyways, thanks again for the tips. I'll definitely be putting some of them to good use.

[@Marylandhappiness]

Moving soon, all clothing and bedding not needed utilized to wrap breakables. Labeling every box gen. Content & location info. Valuables and immediate needs with me when actual transport time arrives. Never overload boxes, containers, working smart & hopefully not hard 😊

[@anniesshenanigans3815]

I am moving in 2 weeks. BUT I don't have to move everything. Just the essentials. I have moved at least 50 or 60 times. And I use towels, blankets, pillows, anything that can pad things and make my boxes easy to carry. Because a lot of times I never have anyone to help. Some people just don't understand that if you put 50 lbs in that box, nobody NOBODY wants to pick it up from the ground!!. Making my list tonight.. gotta decide and stick with it~~

5:02. Pull out your dresser drawers. Use the clothes in them to wrap delicate items. Then use saran wrap to pack the items back i. The drawers. This will leave gaps in the dresser but also save you boxes and packing materials.

My tip for glass decorations and cups and such is to wrap them with clothes, blankets, towels, etc. The clothes and such need to be packed anyways and the glass needs to be wrapped anyways. Might as well save on wrapping materials and space!
