I finally signed a lease for a new place after five months of searching (I have really high standards for apartments). We're actually making the move mid-October. I really hate the actual moving part, though. HOW DO I MAKE IT EASIER?!
(Note: It's only 6 blocks away but it doesn't matter! Still a huge pain in the ass.) |

Go through your and purge.
I honestly don't think packing/moving is a big deal if you don't have a lot of crap in your house.
Start packing anything you don't need right away. Take pictures/art down from the walls, etc. Don't leave everything till the last minute. |

I think this is key... I have three weeks, I should do something every day to get it all ready. You're right. |

yeah just pack up all your nick nacks and whatever the else you don't need right away. Books, odds and ends, etc.
The night before moving the only things I ever had to pack were a few dishes, some toiletries, and some clothes. |

As someone that's moved suburbs/cities/countries multiple times, I can categorically say that unlike other experiences in life, it never gets easier :haha:
It's the packing that kills you. |
