Top 17 Genius Moving Hacks That Will ACTUALLY Make Packing Easier

[@greenblack539]

I think a good piece of advice is to make sure that you’re packing heavy things like books, tools, etc. in small boxes (as small as they can fit) and light things like blankets, pillows, etc. in large boxes. its tempting to throw all of your books in a big box so they’re all together but you probably wont be able to lift it on your own

[@lindaguida4074]

Buy a Dolly!

[@lill1557]

I find heavy duty contractor bags are the best to move pillows and blankets

[@elisethearmy]

thank you!!!

[@wittypediay]

I usually pack combination of books and clothes in trolley bags, so it is easier to drag heavy stuff. And clothes in the carboard boxes

[@brighteyes6585]

That's really smart! I use wine boxes for heavy stuff like books, or rolling suitcases. It's just more secure and easier on movers.

[@emn3178]

I use the garbage bags the other way and scoop the clothes in and tie it tight. That way I can reuse the bag

[@BySophiaLee]

good idea!!

[@KarleeCampbell]

That's the best. Tie the hangers together with the ties. You can also use a belt through the inside of the hanger. The end of the belt makes a great handle.

[@maggieou1080]

Me too

[@emn3178]

Karlee Campbell I never thought of that!! such a good tip bc the hangers can hurt the hands

[@trtlduv07]

I do the same thing! 😊

[@_MARSyt]

Moving hack from someone who has worked with pro movers. If you are loading a moving truck, line the back wall with the boxes stacked high. Once all boxes are in you can put mattresses/box springs in front to hold them back there and strap that all down against back wall. Then you start lego-ing furniture. You don't want room for things to wiggle or shift during the drive. You don't want a bunch of loose stuff up top. Only things that will stay relatively still. For your mirrors, art, glass, breakable things wait till the end and on the wall near the front you'll want to have a dresser or some solid place to set them. Put down towels/blankets for them to sit on as well. Then between each piece of glass/art ect put another towel or blanket. Padding between each one. Finally strap the whole padded mass against the wall. Another thing to load last is chairs. They can be set on top of stuff at the end. Also be sure to utilitize spaces in your car. The easier it is to start pulling out the furniture then the beds and then the boxes will make the unloading much faster

[@Rocksteadyxo]

This comment was such a blessing. Thank you so much!!

[@cneer17]

Do the walls inside moving trucks come with spots designed for those straps to attach?

[@lindapeters5497]

Appreciate that information im actually packing today . Will be helpful when I pack the truck.

[@trishrobbins9942]

I bought ratchet straps to tie down each section. There are lots of tie down spots inside the truck/container.

[@sandraarteaga2024]

Does this work for a cross country move?

[@amandabreana]

For anyone reading the comments, Home Depot sells boxes for less than $1. I love the small size the most because they are easy to carry two of them, they have handles, and I find that things break less if you don’t put as much into large boxes.

[@kewe1987]

Thank you!

[@taracurtis4228]

Lots of stores will give them to you if you ask!!

[@jacqslabz]

@Josiah D Yeah that's what I'm doing, just using a bunch of free ones from a grocery store.

[@andreasales433]

Excellent

[@TUPPERWARELADYCHAR]

Uhaul is best because they bought my unused ones back . Refunded almost 50.00!

[@beepboop9692]

For anyone on a budget, a few months prior to your move, hoard your boxes from packages!! I saved all my large Chewy, Amazon and Thrive market boxes. Sure, it’s kinda messy but I didn’t pay for a single moving box! :)

[@TheMadness777]

This is a great shout! I have to have thrown 20 good sized boxes from Amazon in the recycling bin over the last 6 months, so it'd be a shame to then have to search for or pay for some when I need them for my move.

[@parismacabeo-spahn9399]

Instead of the index cards, use the blue painters tape on the box to label. They are super easy to remove and don't damage the box.

[@captivatingangelofpassion6479]

Masking tape works PHENOMENAL also to write on and remove!!

[@1Lightdancer]

I'm doing that - and I lable on 2 adjoining sides!

[@_MARSyt]

Tip: Go by liquor stores and ask if they have any free boxes. They often do.

[@notebookluvr]

I've found this is the easiest place to get boxes! My son's friend came to help us move and saw bunch of liquor boxes and thought I had a serious drinking problem 🤣

[@margeincharge8760]

YES!!! They are often happy to get rid of them!

[@emaezing]

and starbucks!

[@brooklynmicole8404]

Walmart !

[@NatalieMarie917]

Yeah, I work at a winery/brewery/distillery and we go through so many boxes!! That’s how I got all the boxes I need for my move. And the dividers in the wine boxes are so convenient for glassware, and the growler & howler boxes are the perfect size for 3-wick candles (I have a massive candle collection, so this was a huge win for me.. lol).

[@KW-Houston]

The way I label my boxes: get FedEx pouches (they're free!), cut copy paper (8.5 x 11) in half, write your description and slide inside the pouch. The pouch can stay on the box, the paper can be recycled, and new paper with description reinserted for future use. You can also use colored copy paper for box/room assignment.

[@LaurieSiegmund]

Freat idea! I didn't know that they were free! Getting ready for a big move. Appreciate this tip

[@janeolinger8038]

In another video, I saw a caution against using black (or any opaque) garbage bags for packing clothes. The movers thought they were trash and threw all the clothes away!

[@agamer219]

We usually move our own clothes or if the movers have to move them, put a piece of tape on the bag and write clothes so they know its not garbage.

[@trishrobbins9942]

My rule is heavy stuff in small boxes, and light stuff in big boxes. And don’t forget the all important box for tools and furniture bits, And you keep that box in your possession!

[@lovinglife419]

Needed to hear this!

[@lusciouslipslibra]

For all clothing, bedding, and linen that is not on a hanger, use vacuum space bags!!! Less boxes for overall shorter moving process

[@erinverni7331]

Use ikea bags for linens, bedding, small rugs, sweaters, hair stuff... etc. I taped labels to them and it made it super simple. They also take up less room in a truck. Also reusable!

[@carolefreeman2544]

I used these as well, I also used compression bags on Duvets, blankets.. I love the IKEA storage boxes with the zippers so you can just store them in your linen closet with the items labelled on the outside. I had four..one for towels, one for bed linen, one for table linen and one for Duvets and Blankets. Highly recommend these IKEA storage boxes with zippers.

[@destineeallen88]

I got so invested in the comments I didn’t realize she was still talking about putting that trash bag over the clothes 😭😂😂

[@jessicabordeaux1878]

Lol she talks to much and I got bored listening

[@Sarah-tu8hk]

Same I didn’t even realise ahah

[@gg-jb2pc]

Me too😂🤣😭

[@millysmindtrip1179]

Public speaking not her thing. She talks like a kid.

[@lesliegriffin774]

Hello Sophia quick question love can I use a ziptie around the hanger 🤔 or is a hair rubber band more flexible we are renovating or home in the end of March so we're getting a storage unit to put alot of are large furniture in and clothing as well so appreciate your in put thanks love have pleasant day😊👍💞

[@lyssmarie94]

We use plastic totes to move! They’re $4-$10 each and you can reuse them for future moves and or storage as well.

[@lilnecababy]

Yeah, that's the best. It's more durable and sturdy.

[@MichelleRichee]

The THRIFT STORE always has totes for sale at about $3 each.

[@Beingthechange-l]

I love how the comment section is filled with positive suggestions from peoples life experiences! This is humanity embracing with love as we are meant to be!

[@onedirectionsimp7642]

Next time you move go to Home Depot (if you have one near you) and the have small medium and large boxes and I only know the large are 97 cents a piece (US)

[@BySophiaLee]

no way!!! Wow, wish I would have known that! Thank you for letting me know! :)

[@tyb8201]

Literally moving in 1 week and I’m stressing about packing

[@tamaramejias3505]

Great tips! I learnt a lot from this video and I have a little tip on my own. Instead of cardboard boxes, I have inexpensive, reusable, stackable plastic boxes. They are easier to carry because of their built-in handles and there are even some with wheels for the heavier objects. Once the moving part is over, they can be used as dust- and water resistant storage containers and the clear ones allow to see what's inside without needing to go through all of them.

[@dalaishajones6274]

Where did you get these boxes and do they have different sizes?

[@elisethearmy]

thank you!!!

[@Jaeus360]

What's a link to the boxes you have?

[@medallo143]

[@sandyd2527]

Tip: Zip ties are more reliable that a rubber band.

[@rylie7727]

I’m moving in less than a month and it’s been so stressful going through everything to toss out but this video seems very helpful for stuff I didn’t think about, I’m glad I haven’t done my clothes yet, I’m moving 3 states away so I need to actually pack them securely.

[@Tita09Tx]

Such a waste of trash bags. If you used them with the red straps on top you can use that to contain the hangers and then be able to reuse them at a later time.

[@aubrienorthcut9596]

I’ve actually used the trash bag jack before when moving clothes and it was perfect! It might add a little extra time but I actually used the other end of the trash bag so that I could still use the bags later on! The process was basically the same, but instead I started on the bed to shove the clothes in and then hung them up to tie the bag elastic around the hangers

[@Oatmilllk]

I did it that way but just left them hanging and lifted the bag upward. Super easy :)

[@xxoallie2040]

[@jibberoverjava]

Thank you, you did a Great Job!! I give every box a number and make a list with all the box numbers, for each box number I write what important or kinds of things are in the box so I can target the box I need with lightning speed. It also helps to keep the boxes in numerical order especially if they're going into storage. Add your sticky notes tip to this and you can't go wrong!!

[@GodsDaughterQ]

This is GENIUS!! Thank you for sharing

[@jibberoverjava]

@@GodsDaughterQ Thank uou 😁 so glad it helped. I also did it with my craft room. Gave evey flat surface, drawer and shelf a number... T for Table.. TA for table A, TB, T C.. Shelf - S1 for shelf unit 1 then each shelf on S1 - S1A, S1B, etc.. or Area - (an area under a table or corner.. A1, A2, etc.. works great for garages. Stick the list to a clipboard on a handy wall spot and you can finally relax. Makes purging stuff so easy. Just work through the list at your pace. I use a note app and make one note called Where I Stuck It just for those moments when I hid something or like a mouse catcher/trap knew I'd forget where I stuck it... So helpful. Saved me a number of times. Take care, have a great summer!!

[@nuthinbutlove]

I do the same thing. It makes life so much easier.

[@eileahfrye-edmonds413]

Tip: if you don’t have the $$ to buy boxes you can call your local grocery stores and they’ll give you them for free.

[@trishrobbins9942]

Amazon sells large rectangular duffle bags made of IKEA bag blue material. I moved all my soft goods in those. Zip tied the zippers and straps, just in case. Also, I use Bankers Boxes for heavy and delicate items. They are stronger than brown boxes, and stack easily, and I break them down flat and store in giant zip lock storage bags for my next move.

[@fionam4934]

That’s what I did last time. Now using a combination of these bags and boxes this time round :)

[@pattykochenower4222]

Ordered some bags today, great idea

[@sweetest247]

I know this was a long time ago but what are bankers boxes?

[@haziellopez9034]

[@kazpizzazz]

[@chessc.3407]

Use big laundry bags that I already have to carry all linens, towels and bulky comforters without having to pack all that stuff into boxes

[@nuvoclassic]

or wrap fragile items with them

[@FeliciaRojasDMA]

You can actually just get *free* boxes from your local grocery store. If they don’t have enough, you can go to Walmart too. Banana boxes specifically are great for books because they have lids and handles. Stores will be happy to give them to you because otherwise they have to pay to dispose of them ;)

[@YogaBlissDance]

Banana boxes are LIFE. I'VE used some 5 times.

[@deannalopez6998]

Grocery stores usually deconstruct their boxes and stack them up to trash later. They are free and they will give you as much as you need or based off what they have. Just call around. Don’t waist a trip, it’s better to call and ask.😉

[@hckynrscnd8916]

For boxes, at least in Ontario, Canada, a cheap way to get boxes is collect them from work, LCBO (liquor store), grocery stores, etc. I’ve looked them all up too. Canadian Tire has the cheapest boxes ($1.79, $2.79 and $3.79 for small, med and large). Large is massive and a bit useless. Med is nice cuz there’s only so much you can fit in small LCBO boxes

[@agamer219]

For the bags over the clothes, I don't put a hole in the bag. I put the bag on in reverse and cinch the bag close around the hangers up top and use the draw string to tie around the handles. You can zip tie or band them together first and then just do one tie with the pull strings and do a bowtie so that you don't knot the strings. This way you can use the garbage bags when you are done and it's super fast to do.

[@1Lightdancer]

Great tips! I recently saw the suggestion of setting up a packing kit with markers, scissors, packing tape, masking tape etc, corraling the items so you know where they are! I have a couple of cleaning totes, and am going to resonate one for this kit!

[@RealLifeMoney]

I wish I found this video before I just moved lol. You don't realize how much work it is to move until we have to do it. That's why I created some things that helped me too, beautiful apartment btw, enjoy! :)

Label the boxes by writing on masking tape so you don’t have to rip it off. Just cover it with more masking tape and relabel for your next move.

[@karinatalieee]

I've moved so many times and have changed up my decor each time. Don't invest too much money on your decor because you most likely will change it next time you move. Invest in a good mattress and sofa(removable covers if you have pets) Everything else you can change up when your tastes change!

[@cynthobeauty]

I'm pregnant and moving and the clothes hack is great! I'll also be using the color coded sticky notes on the door of the room and on the side of the boxes! Thank you for these tips!!

[@stinsonburton8802]

The way I do my labels so I can reuse the box is by doing the same thing you did but writing on the outside of the tape with wet erase markers, or by taping down three sides of a page protector and inserting my label that way. Easy removal and it won't damage your box. Removing the wet erase markers can be kind of messy though.

[@toughtimes6596]

Furniture stores often have huge boxes they will give you for long furniture hauls to protect your appliances. They also make a great makeshift dumpster if you have a truck. Put it in truck and just slide into landfill dumpster.

[@kimberlyjones6476]

Always best to save boxes. That one should be on every list. I reuse all the Amazon and Sam’s Club boxes I get for moving. Just broke them down and put them behind my clothes hanging in my closet to use when I move. Great closet clothing hack. Thanks.

[@toughtimes6596]

Didnt see this one in comments: Take a picture of the contents of the box before sealing. Add a number like "K 1", Kitchen 1, and you have a general idea of what is where. You can index each box on an index card but thats a bit too OCD for me lol. I also built stuff with cardboard, even shelves. Recycle!

[@Beingthechange-l]

DIY Vaccum seal! I found it to save so much space when I would take dirty laundry to wash at my moms house on holiday trips; to evenly distribute the clothes in heavy black trash bags( so they keep a uniformed shape to fit together best when packed) then twist the top of the bag around vaccum hose, turn on vaccum until all air is out. Remove the hose and pinch off by continuing to twist further, then seal quickly with 2 doubled tiny rubber bands that I had leftover from bracelet rubbetband making. Then I packed them in large hard covered suit cases with wheels. Do the same process for trip back home, just fold and roll the item/clothes before hand. This would work for all cloth things including pillows!!!

If all your clothes are sorted into types and hanging on the same kind of hanger, it really helps you get the trash bag on, from the bottom up, so they are reusable. I like your rubber band idea. Also, I bought clear plastic shoe bags from Amazon and sorted them by use.

U-Haul has the least expensive boxes that we've found. Also, get boxes that are the same size. That makes stacking them up much easier than having 100 boxes that are different heights, etc. Also the U-Haul boxes have hand holds in the sides! Much easier to carry with hand holds.

[@joannemazurek9075]

Moving boxes: You can actually find out when certain stores get their trucks and then go there later that night or the next day and they'll usually have a ton of boxes they'll give you for free.

I'd leave the labels on them and just reuse next time.

Wow the blue sticky note idea is amazing!

[@stinsonburton8802]

Or you could put duct tape down first, then your packing tape label (leaving a border of duct tape), and when you want to remove it you can just remove the packing tape and the duct tape protects your box

[@MissEurophile]

Ha! I thought I invented the rubber band trick. Been using it for years now. What I typically do though, is that I roll the clothes around the tied together hangers, and put these rolls in a large thick garbage bag, that way you need fewer bags. Some moving companies also provide tall boxes with a clothing rail on top where you can hang these tied together clothes.

[@DanielSilva-ct1gd]

Here is my moving hack I moved 13 times in 17 years. 😁😁I use see through plastic bags over my clothes like this girl and I don’t use boxes any more because it’s expensive and you have too many boxes as a leftover after you move in . Label the bags like mums bedroom Like shoe room so when my husband picks it up he knows where to drop it . I do put plates into plastic bags so don’t need to label since you see through goes into the plastic bin container. I put ornaments into towels and into another this time laundry basket.

[@TheMadness777]

This is a good video Sophia! I have done a lot of these and that first one will change your moving experience Soooo much! I started first using those suit bags but those are more costly and can't cover as many clothes as a cheaper garbage bag. I love the screws taped to the piece of furniture, that is a great idea. For me, I always have had the necessity box/bag and chargers and things like that need to be in there as well. Last bust not least the bed being done first is such great advice! You know you get tired. Take a break or a nap and feel that new place happiness! Amazing looking spot btw. Congrats on that 😉
