If you plan on packing yourself, here are a few helpful tips:

Don’t wait until the last minute!

Get the proper boxes for your items – the right sizes and strengths.

Pack a few boxes each night so that it’s not overwhelming.

Pack the items you’re not going to use before your move first.

Distribute the weight evenly in each box.

Pack small boxes with books and heavier items (under 40 lbs. please)

Pack large boxes with linens, clothes and pillows.

Use your empty suitcases for your clothing.

You can use blankets, towels and small pillows to pack fragile items.

Use strong tape to close your boxes.

Prepare your computer and back-up all your important files.

If possible move your computer equipment yourself.

Pack all your jewelry and priceless possessions yourself.

Pack an “Open me First” box with any important must have items.

Label all your boxes by indicating the area of your home where they belong: Kitchen, den, master bedroom, bathroom, etc.
