You’re on the right track. Get rid of the stuff you don’t need or want anymore. There’s no point in hauling around stuff you don’t need to. Good luck with the packing.

I have a great tip for you. I picked up some Awesome packing tape at Staples when we moved, it has different colors for different rooms and says the name on the tape (ie: kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, living room, office, etc.).
It was so easy to plunk those boxes down where they went right away, and you barely had to look at it to know.

hold on to your junk you crazy purger you, you show no mercy to your household goods…. i say taker easy there katie pants..

It’s okay Nicole. I purged the bulk of it back at 319. I’m sorry you have been traumatized by the witness of that.

im with you throw things away i hate the little stuff it just takes up room and collects dust

ROTFL at Nicole!!! /images/smileys/icon_smile.gif HAHAHA hilarious!

Kent and i got this packing roll of saran like stuff. comes with handles and you can buy it at uhaul or maybe other places too. but it didn’t cost to much and you use it to wrap your furniture, like drawers closed and stuff. like you would see stuff on a pallet at costco. Anyways it came in handy!

Liz,
That’s a sweet idea. I remember my friends using pallet wrap on Dad’s car one time as an alternative to toilet paper, that stuff is super strong!
I think we actually tried wrapping that pallet wrap across a street once around a light standard on either side or something like that, so it apparently has all sorts of uses!

Excellent tip Liz! Thanks! And Conor, holy smokes. Who knew you were so rebellious! I feel like such a saint. I’ve never even been toilet papering.

I like getting rid of junk too. I got rid of tons of stuff right before I got married. I am glad to not be lugging around a bunch of uselessness…don’t tell jon though, I like to blame him for making me throw away so many memories.
