Hey {first_name},
Print this checklist and follow it to make your move a smooth one:
-
Book movers weeks in advance — you’re not the only person moving on the last day of the month
-
Change your address at least two weeks prior to moving
-
Pack the items you will need FIRST in a clear plastic bin
-
Pack an overnight bag containing all the essentials
-
Take a photo of how your electronics are connected so you can remember how and where all the wires go
-
Use sandwich bags for small parts of things you have to take apart, like curtain rods or TV mounts. Then tape the bag to the item which it belongs
-
Wrap your dishes and glasses in clothing to save on bubble wrap
-
Pack plates vertically, like records. They’ll be less likely to break
-
Label your boxes on the SIDES with what’s in them and which room they’ll be going
-
in to
-
Put up a new shower curtain and stock some bath towels and toilet paper. You’ll want to take a hot shower after a long day of moving
-
Along with food and alcohol, give your friends who help you move first dibs on anything you originally planned to sell or donate
-
Arrange for a charity organization to pick up the items you no longer need
Brought to you in good cheer by:
