Moving Tips

todayinwazzu:

• When you pack breakables, wrap them in shirts rather than newspaper.
• Put plastic wrap between the bottle and lids to keep liquids from leaking
• Pack heavy things like books in a rolling suitcase instead of boxes, it’ll be easier to transport
• Put clothes in garbage bags, you’ll be able to squish them to fit around other boxes
• Roll clothes instead of folding them, it saves space while packing
• Label boxes with taped on note cards so you can write lists of what’s inside
• Number boxes so you can know which ones to unpack first (i.e. Number 1 will have things for contacts, chargers, etc.)
• Be sure to clean your room before leaving, including vacuuming and cleaning fridges
• If you rearranged your furniture in the res halls, be sure to move everything back to the way it was found
• Be sure to eat up any food that will go bad, or you cannot save, like ramen
• Most res halls will have bulletin boards with instructions, and you can ask them about proper move out
• If you are coming back to the res halls, you can ask the RED of your future building if you can put things in storage over the summer
