How to use this collection

Start with bedrooms, occupants, box count, furniture level, and move distance. Then add a buffer for closets, garages, fragile items, and last-minute packing.

Buying guidance

For moving supplies, buy enough small boxes for heavy items, extra tape for reinforced bottoms, and enough truck or storage space to avoid rushed repacking.

What to check next
