The key to a smooth moving process is organization. Here are some tips on the best way to pack when moving out of your home.

Packing Materials

The first step to pack like a pro is getting all your packing supplies together.

Depending on the number of rooms you have, make sure you have plenty of sturdy boxes that close. You should also have enough packing materials such as bubble wrap, packing tape, markers, box cutters or scissors, and packing paper. Gather enough old blankets for delicate items like hanging mirrors or framed pictures. If you are renting a truck it may come with a dolly. If not make sure you rent one in advance.

How Many Boxes Will You Need?

To determine how many boxes you will need, add up the number of rooms you’ll be packing. If you have a large amount of stored items in the basement and garage, count as 2 more rooms. The living room and dining room will need at least 4 boxes each, bedrooms will require at least 5 boxes each. Bathrooms require at least 3 boxes. Packing supply centers have packing calculators to help you find the right amount of boxes to move your home.
