Share my world of portable storage
On the last day, you will have one last little pile of belongings to pack: all the bedding, toiletries, dishes, cups, pans, and little details (alarm clock, iPod, box of favorite tea) that you used up to the last minute. You will have the urge to cram it into any half packed moving boxes you still have open. Don't give in to it! All the things you needed when you were finished packing your old house will be the things you will need most as you unpack in the new house. Instead of forcing yourself to dig through half a dozen moving boxes to find the things you need, pack all your moving essentials into their own boxes. Write "Moving Kit" or "Open First" on the boxes.
