Packing up for a big move is tedious work, but with a bit of extra preparation, you can make unpacking much easier. Take a photo of the back of your TV (and other devices) so you know how to plug everything back in.


The folks at My Guys Moving share a few simple tips for making your move easier, but we really like this one:

You don't need a photographic memory to properly rewire your high-priced electronics after a move, but you do need a photograph. A few days before the movers haul your stuff away, take some quality photos of the wiring at the back of your HDTV. Once your new place is ready for some entertainment, just look at the photos to know where all of those pesky wires are meant to go.


Of course, for this to be effective, you'll also want to photograph the back of the devices your TV is connected to. Even if you're an A/V guru, this does take a lot of the brainpower (and time) out of reconnecting everything later.
