Do I really need to explain why you need tape? Go for the good stuff, not the cheap thin stuff-- you'll never regret it!

In additional to regular packing boxes, these are easy to setup and do not require tape.

Don't bring all the old paperwork along--shred it!

When the boxes won't fit in the back of the car-- try taking your clothes, towels, dirty laundry, small items in clear heavy-duty plastic bags. You can pile a bunch of them in the new house! You can see what's in them instead of having to remember what box that thingamajig is packed in!

You never know when you will need a pair of scissors. Keep them in your file box with important stuff.

Cover up those new shelves before you put up the dishes.

Helpful to tie down the odds and ends.

These will save your back and your floor!

A little humor

You'll need one of these.

Let everyone know where you're going.

You'll need this to unpack!

Probably better than the nylon bag. Did you know cats can "log roll" in the backseat with a soft-sided carrier?

Spacebags (vacuum type) will save space in your car, closet, or moving van.
