    Something to think about. Winter boots/coats, if your family has room to store one for you & Chad (obviously little man would be outgrown) leave a set there for visits! My in laws live in FL but come up for Christmas & we keep their boots/coat in the guest closet for them.

    We moved from KY to TX using Pods. My main recommendation is to pack them strategically and securely! We had a bookshelf break from a mattress falling against it. And always double and triple check the items you're moving and how many pods you need. We moved from a 1,000 sq ft home and still needed two of them.

    We moved three years ago after being in our old house 27 years. Our attic was filled. It took a few weeks to go through that. It was mostly our daughters things. And clothes. I went through so much stuff it was ridiculous. We moved from Ohio to north Georgia. It does get chilly here. So I do have a winter coat. But no warm boots and not too many sweaters. I came down with my daughter and our three dogs. My husband finished the moving and drove the moving van. I didn’t get half the things I wanted. But we downsized a lot. It’s just amazing how much stuff you can accumulate. And you’ve only been in your house a few years. I know your new house will be beautiful too. I can’t wait to see it.

    I have had to move cross country a few times over the last 15 years and you are doing great on getting rid of stuff. Nothing worse then paying a lot of money to move “junk” or things that may not fit your new space! Some things can be replaced and hold no sentimental value. Congrats on moving to a warmer climate! I moved from Michigan to Georgia 2011-2015! Currently in Texas

    Moving is one of those beasts that you truly have to divide and conquer the beauty of it the blank canvas you get to start on. Now I know there are definitely challenges with moving companies right now (those who use them ) and backs and knees and the use of neighbors you know lol. Great video I love giving and donating as well. Toys are hard for me too I always gotta do those not around the kids and have a system for storage. great video!🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺

  • @libbylou0421
    @libbylou0421 2 года назад +2

    Man we moved across country last March. We moved from Las Vegas to Florida. It was MY first time moving across country. We had to down size like a lot and get rid of a lot of stuff too. If u guys ever need a professional organizer I’m your gal. Haha good luck to u guys! I would also love to see a packing video too. I think that would be awesome! I think going through baby stuff and clothes is the hardest u can do to down size. We don’t have kids but I can only imagine how difficult it is cause your baby toys can be very sentimental. Especially like their very first toy that you’ve bought for them. Same thing with your clothing. I think clothing is really hard to downsize with. Cause then u have to think about buying a whole new wardrobe for a different claimant. I had to do that with my winter clothes since it gets in the 30’s in Vegas. We don’t need that here in Florida. It’s always warm. Maybe a few times in winter is when it gets below freezing but that’s hardly ever. I think u guys will definitely enjoy it out here. ♥️

  • @bouchie11

    We used the ABF type pods to move from NY to NC. My main tip is use as many cardboard boxes over plastic bins as possible!! We had quite a few broken plastic bins once we got to NC and unloaded!

    We moved to a different state two years ago, we used PODS had a great experience. No hiccups on our end. We had 3 large containers, love that you also monitor pickup/drop-off schedule with your online account. So many people moving nowadays experiences may vary. I cannot stress it enough packing supplies is key. If you think you don’t have enough, get more. It’s very important strap everything down tight, we probably went overboard, but I’m OK with that because my couches, bed frames, dressers, gym equipment etc did not get ruined. Things will shift and moved, so invest in moving blankets, bubble wrap etc. Best of luck! Congratulations on your new journey. ☺️

    We used a POD to move it was great. Packed at our own pace which was great for decluttering. Try to condense as much as possible and put all the items you need asap in last so it’s first out. Quadruple wrap any TVs or computers in boxes.

    I moved from New York to Florida. I love it and would never move back upstate even if I was paid.
    As far as hiring a moving company my husband owns his own trucking business so we just used our own equipment to get down south, thank God.
    The culture and living in Florida is completely different so be prepared. Yes- this is a red state and yes we do support Trump. We are sweet and kind and like small talk. We own guns because it’s our right to do so. And be prepared that no one here can drive, you’re very likely to have a car accident, regardless of your fault or not, within the first 6-12 months of moving here. Florida is a no fault state, and the insurance companies only pay up to $10,000 in damages. They will not pay any more than that- if you own a 100,000 Tesla it does not matter. By law the state will only pay up to $10,000 in damages.
    Safe travels and I hope you’re able to adjust well to the state- it will be a culture shock for sure! Have fun 💖

    I moved cross country 3 times. Each time I donated or trashed lots of stuff, but, especially the 2nd time, I still brought things I didn’t use n the new home. Our moves were paid for by his employers, but I like to get rid of things, so I did. This last time, we wanted new furniture so brought much less. We did bring an extra car and a boat & trailer. Both were damaged during the move.

    So at the beginning of 2022 I did the same journey that you are currently doing but I moved from Florida to Maryland and I used the pods and my number one recommendation would be to stack everything as together as you can as well as tie everything down to the sides that is my number one recommendation to group everything together and try to keep them as close as you can so that there’s no room for your items to move around

    Are you still going to keep your same decor style and aesthetic? 🤞🏼🤞🏼 Like, the white and blue (with a touch of pink)??? Or are you going to completely switch up the style once you move? I have always LOVED your decor style and how it’s so unique from what everyone else has. All the boho/farmhouse/etc. decor has everyone’s homes looking exactly the same. Lol. And yours was just so pretty and different. And it always looked SO clean! You know certain decor styles can just make a house look dark or cluttered or dirty and yours looked so bright and airy and clean.

Anyway, Id highly recommend a moving company, three girls could pack a house your size in a day. So convenient- albeit expensive. And in two years only one thing in my boxes ever broke- a lamp.
