Here are some great tips for the Big Move!
 
If you didn't do it already - get rid of any clutter! Find out where the garbage area is & garbage pick up dates.
 
If you have one, place a floor plan by the entrance so everyone knows what goes where.
 
Designate a color for each room, mark that color on boxes & door of room. Try to keep boxes out of high traffic areas.
 
Number your moving boxes so you know how many are for that room Ex: 1/5 boxes - makes keeping track easy & any loss noticeable.

Are you about to move in or out of a Condo? Did your Realtor let the Strata know & book your elevator?
 
Essentials - unpack first Important Docs, soap, phone, pen/paper, few dishes, band aids,snacks & water, change of clothes.
