Movers always told us to stuff drawers with pillows or bath towels, etc so that the drawers wouldn’t open during the move. Clean sheets, blankets and pillows for your bed in your dresser drawers makes them right where you need them first thing.
Yeah - that's one thing I did - filled any dressers or cabinets up and taped them shut.
Really good idea!
This is genius
I take photos as I go, then email them to myself. When packing a box, I take photos & make a list of the contents. A list goes inside the box, outside the box, & in my moving binder, with the box # on it. When taking apart electronics, I take photos of each step & email them to myself.
That's a great idea! Love that!
I haven’t ever thought of the last things packed will likely be the first things you’ll need... but so TRUE! Great tip
Glad it was helpful!
Also loved this
Ok....the ''Open First'' box is just genious. I love how simple that is and how helpful it can be. Great video as always 🤗
Thanks so much! 😊
Here’s a tip, I used. LEAF BAGS. 5 FOR $3:00. I packed my pillows, bedding, towels,
Plastic containers. Anything that wont break. AFTER. Re use for your yard waste
Love that idea!! Thanks for sharing!
Great video, just a little tip pack a suitcase for you and your husband with clothes, wash kit and things you will need when you get to your
new home 🏡❤️🇬🇧
Great tip! We did actually do that and it makes it so much easier!
I've been watching a ton of videos and this is the first time I've heard about the open first box! Definitely doing it for each room! I am so so so so so grateful that I watched this and learn to do this for my next move in May. Thank you so much for this video XOXO
Although labeling boxes for the different rooms such a great tip to identify what is in the boxes. Brilliant idea to have an essential bin!! That’s why I’m hear for all the best tips ever that make my life easier. Thanks Sophie!!
Glad it was helpful!
When packing tv , / computer take a photograph of the back, so you know how cables connect
Genius!
I'm moving next December so I'm doing the decluttering now. When I saw that my pants drawer looked like yours, I was so proud of myself! It's the little things. 😆 Thank you for all of your wonderful ideas and support. I call you my "sophisticated life coach" and I appreciate you! 💖
Really smart to stay on top of it now!!
Great tips! Thank you. I almost spent $ on colored labels for different rooms but then I remembered I had different colored printing paper. Thanks to instant ink I spent $11.00 printing out all the necessary labels (over 500 )and then just taped them to all four faces of the boxes.
Genious!!
Sometimes boxes from retail stores depends on delivery days - most places have their own compactors.
Great point!
Chick-fil-A french fry boxes are almost exactly the size of the ones labeled "small" at a moving store. You can get about half a dozen at a time, if you go just before 2pm, after the lunch rush but before they get around to tearing them down.
Wow that is great to know!!
♥️ I hope it's all going as well as it can! I'm excited for the three of you on your new part of life!
Thank you!!
I did the master list thing but with a pad a paper on a clipboard.
Love that!
Truly one of the best videos I have ever watched on "moving tips"!! You should make a link in your description box for easy access on this one. Anyone getting ready to move should watch and take notes. So looking forward to all your future videos! What an exciting time with a beautiful new home and a sweet baby on the way. God Bless❤
Wow what a compliment, thanks Linda!
I was totally a crazy person with an excel spreadsheet! Not sure now that I have a baby that I would be able to go that crazy in the future if/when we move but it was so helpful even with labeling the boxes i was able to get more specific.
Love the open first idea though! I would definitely do that in the future!
Not a crazy person at all, just a very organized one! 😉
I really like the "Open First" label idea for each room's essentials. Don't want to have to open everything at once and make a mess, just to get the certain items you really need. This could also help you declutter even more at the new place!
Exactly!! it helped us out so much!
Hi Sophie! Wishing you all the best in your new house!!!! 👍💕
Thank you so much!!
Great great tips Sophie, will be very helpful in the future for me. Stay blessed ❤️
Thank you! You too!
Wishing you a good move! Can’t wait to see some video of your new house as you decorate and of course getting baby’s room ready! Don’t overdo it.
Thank you so much!!

Is that your new kitchen at the end of the video? Can't wait to see it!
Still the old one!
Two years ago, started saving Blue Apron boxes. They are small and sturdy. Bought garment boxes from UHaul as well as heavy duty boxes from Home Depot for husband's tools. Have a collection of LPs, but no modern box fits them, short by a half inch on each side. Struggling with boxes for paintings and artwork. We ordered four UPack Relocubes in April. Moving from California to Florida. Thanks for your video.
I'm moving in 2 weeks! Great timing lol 😄
Hope it went well!
I used Ikea bags ( great for everything) 😀 mind you I am only a single person in a small apartment.
I love that you said “dick around”. I think it’s a highly underused term.
Oh gosh, dont remember saying that
Use clear trash bash not the black ones
Great tip!
