As a general rule  50 percent of the items are not taken into account in the first place, therefore those who pack on their own surely will struggle trying to pack everything and keeping up to schedule on the moving day. This is not a recommendation to avoid doing your own packing but a heads up to not break your neck with unnecessary hassle.

It won’t hurt you to purge your wardrobe, storage or garage. Since these items are meaningful to you and contain memories, ask a friend or spouse to help you tell important from unimportant. Lots of people waste lots of money on moving and keeping useless items.

You may be able to save money by making a charity gift. Give it away, don’t throw it away, you will feel better and will make others feel better too.
