I bought different colored duct tape - one color for each room. Then on the tape I wrote what was in the box. So all the purple tape went to the bedroom and the yellow tape to the kitchen, etc. That way, no one had to read any labels and none of my boxes went to the wrong room. I read the labels and decided which boxes could wait until the next day. :) Thank goodness for duct tape!
Amanda Cromley you could also write the room so that people can read but don't have to. also if it's a small place you could just put a bit of the color tape on the door to the room things are going to
Amanda Cromley i know this was 4 years ago but you could at the front of the house or on the front door have a chart that says which color goes to which room so that when they walk in the house the just look and they dont have to walk to each room looking fir the color
clickerqueen as one of 4 kids and 2 parents their is a lot of boxes so i have used different color tape so i can just say to bring all the boxes with ______ tape to my room. I also gave written on the side what it is
These are great tips! The painter's tape trick is genius. We moved to a different state when my oldest was 6 weeks old (and it was on New Year's Eve!). I still couldn't lift boxes. Also, your pantry is really tidy. I am super jealous of that.
Love your videos I'm only 14 but love diy videos because I baby sit a toddler. Also I'm a British viewer and thank you Louise sprinkle of glitter for sending me here haha love you guys
These tips are great! It sure makes sense to plan ahead with the 'moving calendar'! I always look forward to Friday for your vlog :) Keep 'em coming! 😊👍
Your dog is so adorable!!! Thank you for all your tips and tricks. I am not a mom but I find your videos extremely entertaining and fun. I am a proud subscribers and LOVE your videos.
Great tips! I move apartments this weekend! Eek! I don't have that much stuff (mainly just bedroom furniture and then kitchen plates and cooking supplies) but it's still pretty overwhelming.
I have a tip for opening boxes when u put tape on the box get a sturdy piece of string and put it under the tape so when you go to peel off the tape it literally just takes seconds
so I am moving in a week and I have watched tons of tips on moving and this one was the best that helped me thank you whatsupmoms you just earned another subscriber
thank you so much for the tips!! my family is moving to another house in a couple of weeks, and we haven't moved in 20 years!! so it will be a big move, thank you for the tips!! (:
I am moving next week and I was looking at organisation vids i appreciated ur help especially as I have 3 other siblings . watching your vids help alot u dont understand how easy for me this is for me as I am going to have my own room thx guys ♥♥♥♥♥
I love you for posting this! You gave me a tip last week which I was so excited about and when I saw this on my feed I was even more so! I am a week away from our move so this gives me some extra motivation to get stuff done!
Great tips! Thanks for sharing. This definitely helps as my family and I will be moving to a new place next month. New subscriber! Can't wait to check out your other videos. :)
I have moved a lot and my top two tips are: 1. Always unpack and make your beds as one of the FIRST things you do when you get to your new place. You always end up enthusiastically unpacking more than you can handle. Being able to crash is brilliant (rather than having to make your bed when you're exhausted). 2. Have one box of essentials to hand - plates, cutlery, cups and DON'T forget the toilet paper! Stash a roll in the bathroom as soon as you arrive.
I'm actually moving tomorrow. Uhg. It's just from one apartment omplex to another across my unis campus (tiny town so the Uni is pretty much the center of it) and we signed our new lease a week early. This way we were able to move all our things on our own time instead of stressing trying to get it all done in one day.
yaiyy congrats~.... actually we Just moved this month to our first home as well..with 2 kids!!.. anyway seems i used a lot of these tips! ... main one was to make 4-5 trips with kitchen items, & food that was in the freezer & fridge (that was all taken by car trips).. other extra tips that might be helpful..(1) i used masking tape to write the name on the room on the box, just so i could use it again. I also adding labels (with tape) on the box for key things i might want, so i won't dig & open all the boxes... (chargers, hangers, bath rugs etc...).. (2) in one of these car trips I set up 1 bathroom, for taking a shower at the end of the day. Plus I separately packed 1 set of bed linens. (3) over lap a 1 week with the old apartment to allow time for cleaning the kitchen & to double..triple check you took everything!!... my girls enjoyed the moving day at the zoo.. so it was a win win!!... happy moving can't wait to see your tips on decor!!
Omg.... Love all the tips, especially the tv "selfie", having food already there, and bringing the kitchen with you. Makes me wanna move, just so I could put these fabulous tips to use! Beautiful home, btw! You're a gem, Brooke! Keep the tips coming!
Such useful time savers for a move and the idea of taking pictures of the electronic cables alone can save almost anyone hours of tears and aggravation! Love the WUM channel...you girls are amazing moms! Thank you for sharing all of your talents!
Love this channel and have been watching from the beginning. I love that I can go back to your older videos that apply to what's going on to my current life.
oh another tip for moving boxes, if u go to a McDonald's or any other fast food place u could go in and ask if there are any empty boxes they are getting rid of because I know that with McDonald they go through countless boxes of fries a day and then recycle them :)
Am I the only one who's not a mom (I'm only fifteen lmao) who finds these videos so satisfying to watch?
edit: yes i am 20 now yes i’m doing well lmao
I'm 13

I feel like a lot people who watch these videos are not moms

Yassssssss

M GREEN YES!!
M GREEN yes
She now probably regrets getting rid of her new kids on the block shirt!!!
Anna Quinn why
@@ppiinnkkislife661 because they did a collab with them and she got to showcase all her collected items cause she was fangirling so much
Anna Quinn meeee
Lol yas

I read the labels and decided which boxes could wait until the next day. :) Thank goodness for duct tape!
I'm thinking of doing this. Did anyone get confused or annoyed having to figure out which color went to which room?
Amanda Cromley you could also write the room so that people can read but don't have to. also if it's a small place you could just put a bit of the color tape on the door to the room things are going to

These are great tips! The painter's tape trick is genius. We moved to a different state when my oldest was 6 weeks old (and it was on New Year's Eve!). I still couldn't lift boxes.
Also, your pantry is really tidy. I am super jealous of that.

+WhatsUpMoms hi !!!Im a huge fan of you can you do tips on beign healthy?
caution my opinion ahead
I hate when people say that their child is 24 months old. 2. your kid is 2
Snowy Stone it's mostly because there's such a difference between 1 year old to 2 years old :) so months give a more precise age
Ireland Blake I gave a caution
Mandi Romney awesome!! :)
Snowy Stone I know like can't you just say 2 instead of making your kids sound younger than they actually are 😐
Ginny Weasley Thank you. Someone who actually gets it
Thanks so much for your tips,.... We are shifting in a month and a half into our newly built home. Can't wait and soooo excited!
Congrats, thats awesome!! xx B

Love your videos, I'm still a teenager ahah but I love your videos. Your tips are amazing.
btw, Louise brought me here!
OH MY LINCOLN IS SOOOOOOOOOO CUTE!!!!
awww, thanks :) xx B
:-)
Another trick I've learned is when your transferring plates put a disposable plate in the middle to "cushion" the plates so they don't break.
You should do a house tour when everything is settled.
Brooke should have kept that pink shirt for the new kids video!
Great tips thank you. We're moving in 5 weeks and I will definitely try some of these.
These tips are really helpful. I love the one about the a Alan wrench. We're moving in Aug so I'm so glad you posted this video. Thanks!
Simple Life Mama p
,,,
When Lincoln was crying at the beginning he was probably thinking " mom where are my toys."
Ikr
1:48 hes like "i really dont care." lol
My friend is moving right next to me so I will have to show him these tips thanks Brooke
Thanks Sarah!! xx B
WhatsUpMoms omg you replying
love the cell phone pic idea about the cables for electronics! I never recall what goes where.
after you shift in a new house
give us a tour
Congrats on your move! I just moved about 3 weeks ago also and recently posted a video on tips for moving with toddlers...great minds think alike ;)
also go to grocery stores and ask for any cardboard boxes they don't need anymore, they will give them to you for free.
xXTheBuddXx Google's movie
I've moved a lot and most of the boxes that my family used were from grocery stores and dollar stores. My mom just asked if they had extra boxes.
These tips are really great thanks xx Lincoln is soooo cute xxxx :)
We never bought boxes when we moved! We just went to downtown and found rlly good boxes for free!
For some reason I cannot wait to move out ,not that I don't love my family it just seems so fun.(I know,I am shocked too)
I'd add, look for movers who will dissemble and reassemble your furniture! this made our lives so much easier.
It's funny how you moved out, then four more youtubers moved in 😂😂😂
%
What youtubers?
michaeelfontana who?
I am moving next week and I was looking at organisation vids i appreciated ur help especially as I have 3 other siblings . watching your vids help alot u dont understand how easy for me this is for me as I am going to have my own room

can you do a house tour? your house seems beautiful! i wanna see if my theory is corrects!
Elle should do a house tour so should Meg and Brooke
During my move we got boxes from stores we went to alot

1. Always unpack and make your beds as one of the FIRST things you do when you get to your new place. You always end up enthusiastically unpacking more than you can handle. Being able to crash is brilliant (rather than having to make your bed when you're exhausted).

Adorable baby! :) I'm getting ready for a move from NY to SC. Got some useful tips from this, thanks!
Please, please make a house tour! Your house looks so amazing!

The thing that helped you was having access to the new house ahead of time.
oh another tip for moving boxes, if u go to a McDonald's or any other fast food place u could go in and ask if there are any empty boxes they are getting rid of because I know that with McDonald they go through countless boxes of fries a day and then recycle them :)
These were amazing tips, our Hse is for sale so hopefully moving soon and this will definitely help. Thank you x
