Packing in a rush
Make sure you have all of the moving supplies and boxes you need to complete your move.
If you’re moving next week (or tomorrow!) and you haven’t had a chance to pack properly, don’t despair. There are lots of things you can do to get your things in order at the last minute.
Pack the big things first. Make sure the furniture is wrapped with moving supplies or has been taken apart, the blankets are boxed and the patio umbrellas have been put away. It’s easier to throw all small things into a box at the last minute, but finding time to organize the big items will require more planning.
Don’t worry about organization. Packing boxes don’t have to look neat and structured. Just try to distribute things evenly so you make good use of the space.
Don’t forget to wrap delicate items using moving supplies such as bubble wrap. Just because things are not organized doesn’t mean you need to risk their safety. Be careful.
Do a little bit at a time. If you have little time left and lots of things to do before moving day, break it down in parts. Pack as you go along: when you see dry dishes, put them away in moving boxes, rather than back in the pantry. The same is true of other things you run across along the day.
