For the hanging clothes in trash bags trick - if you do it the opposite way, start from the bottom of the clothes and tie the handles around the hanger tops - you can reuse the trash bags once you get to your new place to collect packing paper etc

“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.” ‭‭2 Peter‬ ‭3:9‬ ‭NIV‬ ROMANS 10:9-11 “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame” Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭19:10‬ ‭ God wants us to believe in His One and Only Son, Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, who died for our sins :D When we truly believe in our hearts that Jesus is the Son of God, who died for our sins so we could have eternal life with God, we are saved from the eternal fire and have eternal life in Christ Jesus!! 💖 May God bless you all! ❤️

Thank you for this tip 🙏 I will definitely do this when we move into our new home ❤

As someone who has moved a million times, taking a knife and quickly cutting handles into the sides of the boxes is a huge life saver, if they don’t already have premade handles.

My tip, I usually go around and take down all pictures /decor from the walls and pack them in boxes a few weeks before and get rid of any I don't want to keep, I find once your walls are bare, it feels less overwhelming!. Best wishes on the move.

Watching this as I sit in my kitchen avoiding the packing that must be done! One thing we do differently is to tape the plates and bowls together. Learned that trick from thrifting and seeing all the sets taped together. It keeps the plates from moving around and then we just wrap each stack with paper or bubble wrap. I never thought to cut the packing paper. I'll definitely be doing that! We also packed fragile room decor, pictures, etc in sheets and towels to save on packing materials.

The paper plates between the ceramic plates is a game changer!!! Love that!! 😵🤩👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I hope the move will go smooth! One tip that i have is of you are an avid reader, pack the books in suitcases with wheels. They get so heavy and it get much easier to move them with the wheels.

As a 20+ year Army wife, we also moved many times. One of the best suggestions given to me was that if you are moving with professional movers, place an empty shoe box or small box in each room for the odds and ends that the movers can't pack (i.e. candles, change, nail polish, etc). Even though you think you have removed/packed all of those things before the movers come, they always find more! These boxes can be either packed for you to take yourself to your new home or gone through and things discarded or packed after the movers have left for the day. It saves them from being interrupted and also keeps your hands and pockets empty while you are doing other things. Wish I had known this sooner in our 8 moves in 17 years! Love your channel and content!

We have also used the garbage bag tip for hanging clothes - but to make it even a tiny bit easier, we wrap a rubber band around the hangers at the top and they stay together without one slipping out of your grasp and sliding down in the bag. 👍 Great job packing up, it’s so tough!

The internet connection at my farm is really sketchy, so I moved the modem to the barn. Now I have STABLE wifi.

We are also a Military family. Moving tip - I like to pack a "1st night box" it has essentials like Bathroom items for a shower (shower curtain & rings) TP, towels, etc. And every person packs their over night bag that had 2 outfits & pj's Good luck 😁

I still in awe that your moves are not covered by your military. I couldn't imagine packing for each posting. Thankful the military here in Canada helps with each posting. Crazy lol

For large pillows and comforters, you can use trash bags. Once you have them in there, put the nozzle of your vacuum between the layers and then twist the bag around the hose. Once you deflate the air from the bag, hold the ends tight as you remove the hose and then twist the bag and use a twist tie or rubber band to seal.

You are so right. I got large boxes I only packed one with my books and it was so heavy. I have not sealed it yet. I’m going back to get small/medium boxes! Thank you

We recently moved and I found that using kitchen rags and hand towels worked really great for packing dishes and other breakables like decor pieces😀

My best tip is to check out your moving company thoroughly!!!!! Also, get extra insurance for the move since the default insurance is something like 6 cents on the dollar. If you have a shorter move consider moving yourself by renting a truck. We are in the midst of dealing with a TERRIBLE moving company who damaged many things from my mom’s estate. The smartest thing we did was move my most precious items in our car.

Arizona?!!! Yay! I live in AZ! Be prepared for the heat! My husband is retired USAF! Every move we used the opportunity to purge! Not organize, not declutter, not buy more bins, baskets, and containers. We purged! Threw stuff out, donated. Every time someone has said help me declutter, all they do is buy containers, bins to move the clutter to another spot/room in the house. Have a safe and smooth move! Also, WELCOME TO ARIZONA!🔥🥵

Using wine/liquor bottle boxes with the inserts to pack glasses and nick nacks. You can fit a lot in those boxes and they're easy to find at your local liquor stores.

When I move, I make a, "Load last, unpack first" box. It's bath towels, paper plates and paper towels, coffee maker, coffee, and mugs. That way when we get to the new house everyone has plates to eat off (I always provide pizza and drinks for my friends and fam lol) and the next morning you are ready to get clean and have a cup of coffee before unpacking. Just add in anything you'd need right off the bat and don't want to search for, and load it into the truck last so it is first when you unload.

@@jbfanandlover Wasnt able to. Floods hit our region. My mum lost nearly everything.

We used color copy paper that we taped onto each box, each room had its own color. I would also stick a sheet on the door of that room so that way the movers could just put the boxes into the room that matched the color on the box. Also we decluttered as we went. I bought about $10 in dollar tree laundry baskets that we would put all the donations into. That way I didn’t have to sacrifice any boxes. The laundry baskets were big enough to hold quite a bit of things we wanted to get rid of.

I have moved a lot and there is nothing worse than trying to rush a move because you waited too long to pack! We are going to be moving this June so I am about to start packing now. My plan is to start with all of the items we don't need or use on a daily basis and get those packed up. One thing I like to do so I don't feel overwhelmed with boxes all over my house is to stack the boxes in a specific corner or each room or if you can, put the packed boxes inside empty closets so you don't see them. I always check every cabinet and closet before we leave the house so nothing gets left behind.

My edit to tip 21...You can actually reuse the trash bags if you tie the bag around the hangers and try to buy unscented extra large bags if possible.

I didn't even use packing paper during my move! I saved up news papers. The store ad papers and I saved any bubble plastic from packages. We only bought two packs of boxes and the rest I got from grocery stores and we used bins we already had. We moved multiple days so sometimes I unpacked a box or bin to reuse ! It was nice to save some money because moving is already so expensive

Also, pack and "OPEN FIRST" box, Coffee supplies, a fresh shower curtain and rings, cutting board and paring knife. Flash light, screwdriver and Allen wrenches. The stuff you will need RIGHT AWAY.

Mark boxes on all four sides, stack boxes in the moving truck first so that you aren’t tripping over them when moving furniture. When unloading the furniture gets unloaded first again no boxes to trip over.

I have 6 days to move and I'm half done packing. I have been freaking out the last two days that I wouldn't finish in time. You gave my hope and knowledge. Thank you!!

FYI my biggest tip for moving was to have all your bathroom stuff, basic cleaning supplies, towels, and a suitcase of clothes for each person with you instead of in the moving truck and Mark them open first! It’s always good to have the medicine and first aid supplies with you! 💗💗

Don’t know if this will help you but when we moved I packed all my linens and towels in the top of each dresser drawer. That helps keep the dresser drawers clean and fewer boxes to unpack. Once I arrive I wash the towels and unpack to the linen closet. You can also pack Unbreakables under the towel.

Thank you! It's great to see people throwing out or selling things off prior to the move!!!!!!

Using your dish towels/tea towels etc to wrap your glasses/plates/bowls/ kitchen items etc in them instead of so much packing paper

So this is what it looks like to pack an organized house. Never been there myself but I'm inspired!

I love your videos. I found your channel 2 years ago when I was very depressed about having a messy house and not knowing where to start cleaning and organizing. You have a very soothing and calm voice. I wish your family well in your new adventure and look forward to seeing the videos of your new home. We hope to move next year so thank you for the tips.

You're such a pro, Amanda! With the housing market being so crazy these days, I bet a lot of ppl will find this vid/your tips priceless!

It is sweet to see how your eldest son Luke was helping you in every way he could, shows that he wanted to share the packing responsibilities with his parents. Wishing you the best in Arizona!🤗

This was sad for me because I only started following you a few months ago when one of you videos came across my timeline on Facebook. It was love at first sight when I saw your home and loved each and every room makeover but I’m excited for you guys new journey in to your new home . I’m so excited for you all .

I’m glad you checked the dishwasher! Can’t tell you how many empty homes I’ve cleaned preparing for the owner to sell. to find they forgot a load of dishes in the dishwasher.

I know you've already renamed your channel, but after watching this, I think it should be named "work smarter not harder." You are so wise in how you approach things. You spent the last year decluttering, knowing that you were at least considering a move. Your smart approach to everything you do shows dedication of thought, not mindless chores. You consider budget, time and effort. A true project manager for each step in your videos. I hope I don't have to move again soon (5 times in 7 years), but if I do, the garbage bags over hanging clothes and styro plates in between dishes are definitely techniques I'm going to use. All the best to your move into your NEW home!! It's going to be awesome!! And so nice to be near family.

I’m just about to move back to my parents farm but this time we are actually not using boxes but heavy duty plastic tubs. Due to the fact that where it stores is bit damp and rats so we wanted to have more of a chance of keeping the rats and water damage away and use orange nylon flags for fragile things and zip ties to lock the tubs but I’m lacking motivation because for the past 14 months I’ve been living on my own and it feels daunting that it’s all about to change after 14 months of no stress

You are a packing powerhouse! You gave me the motivation I needed today to get stuck in! Tackled the toys, which I was dreading the most, & got a lot packed. We've got 13 days to moving day so I'll be back tomorrow for a dose of motivation with my morning cuppa! Thanks for a great video!

You can also use colored tape instead of the stickers. Bigger area to write on, too. Also, when you've emptied a drawer/cabinet, tape it shut.

Great idea about taping the cabinet shut. Even though I KNOW I’ve emptied cabinets, drawers etc… I keep going back to them 🤷🏾‍♀️

If you are moving to a bigger house ( one with more bedrooms or bathrooms) try and go ahead and separate the stuff into boxes for that room so when you move you dont have to go through a box and take stuff from one room to another. We have moved several times and sometimes my boys had to share a room and others they got their own rooms and when we moved into a new house where they have their own room it is easier unpacking when i already have them items separated into boxes labeled for their room instead of moving in and unpacking and separating everything at that moment.

It's so bittersweet watching you pack up everything. I'm so excited to see the new house and watch you transform it into your home.

I just got done with this....it was an experience! Wishing you a smooth move and can't wait for your unpacking at the new place. So exciting!

We pack the same. It’s good to see someone not act they ‘discovered’ that you can get boxes from stores. Uniform boxes are easy and faster to move. Yeah not ideal for everyone but still.

yep. motivated. like you i am moving in 8 days time, the idea is to donate loads of stuff. admire your energy. hope you are happy in your new homex

We are also moving real soon just got to find the right house for us. We already got the approval from the lender so we are looking daily. I have already packed up most of our items that we don't use on a regular basis. I get my boxes and packing supplies free by going around our neighborhood on recycling day and picking up all sizes of boxes, bubble wrap, brown paper, etc. They're clean, perfectly reusable and is good for the environment to reuse.

Thank you so much for this video! My dad and I are thinking we might get kicked out from our apartment so this video really helps for what we need to do to pack what we have. Its been a tough time because we also have two cats and finding houses is difficult. This helps us understand what we need to do and I am thankful for this, Its been a tough year for everyone.

This moving vlog was probably the saddest one I’ve ever watched. This home is absolutely beautiful and I’m going to miss seeing it in videos! The people who bought it are so lucky!

Wow, alot of memories and I'm sure alot of emotions. Excellent tips. One tip I love is using my luggage, the ones with wheels, for books. Alot of people will want to put clothes in them, but books are heavy and this way you can roll them in the truck and then your home.

It's so far to see this as my family and I started watching when you all were moving to this house! Good luck on your move! As far as the clothing goes, we just moved and always use a similar packing hack. We turn the trash bags right side up and tie them like a shoestring around the hangers. By doing it this way, you can untie and reuse the trash bags in your trashcan!

You’re so motivated with taking care of stuff. Packing is the worse. I pack one box and take a nap.

We have moved long distances multiple times. Tidy Cat plastic tubs (like the 35 pound containers). Work great for odd size garage, tool items. They also stack really well in the moving truck. Works great for potting soil too.

You really know how to pack!!! It made me feel so overwhelmed!! I’m so excited for Arizona!!!

Liquor boxes are free and great for books. Since they are smaller it keeps you from making VERY heavy boxes with books in them. If all goes as planned, we will be moving two streets over from our rent house to our newly purchased house in two weeks. Talk about the ideal move. I can pack, unpack at the new house and take the boxes back to pack some more stuff! Looks like we can have the use of our friends’ trucks/trailers as “mini moving vans”. Let’s hear it for our abundance of trucks here in Texas. Blessings on your move.

I’m so excited for you guys! I’m down in AZ right now for two weeks on vacation . Probably moving here in a couple of years. It’s very toasty right now!

Okay, great motivation. They are coming to rip out my carpet and install wood look tile next week and I've been putting off packing up everything in my living room and dining room. This has given me the motivation to get it done this week and not procrastinate any longer and try to do it all the day before they come! Thank you! Great packing tips that I will be using for my china cabinet items and fragile items!

Awww I'm thinking about all the makeovers you did in this house! So many good memories!! I hope you guys love your new house!! 🥰

something thats helps is having an idea on where of the house will the things go so like decorations for the living room, decorations for the bedroom and things like that

Tip we were told when we were looking into emigrating - the moving company would make a box to fit dining chairs and fill the empty space with soft toys or blankets and pillows. Also empty cavities of furniture, like bookshelves or drawers

I have wrapped my dishes before in towels ( kitchen and bathroom towels) since you have to pack them up as well. Plus to save money from getting boxes and packing tape, i just pack blankets, stuffed animals, and clothes in garbage bags ( also it helps when you need something to squeeze in a spot so nothing breaks or move in the moving truck.

Hey Amanda, All the packing tips were great and very useful. I used most of them when moved into our house a couple of years ago and was excited to see you used them too. One tip that I found on Pinterest that I used in addition to buying bowls, plates and utensils, was to pack an overnight bag like we were going on a trip, toothbrush, shampoo, clothes,etc. and when we arrived to our house I put it in our rooms, It kept us from having to stress over where our essentials were at the end of a hard and tiring day. I know especially my husband appreciated it when he walked into our Master bedroom and everything he needed was there and he didn't have to look through boxes to find it. I really hope your unpacking goes smooth.😊
