Who this guide is for

This guide is for renters and small households planning a 2 bedroom move before ordering boxes or packing kits.

What to compare

Start with bedrooms, then adjust for occupants, closets, books, kitchen weight, garage or storage items, and whether packing is light, average, or heavy.

Buying guidance

Use more small boxes for heavy items and keep a buffer of medium boxes for end-of-packing odds and ends. Add tape and markers before move week so packing does not stop near the finish line.
