Your first and possibly the most important step of moving is to create a list of all the things you are going to need moved so we can ensure that everything is accounted for and taken to your new space!
SAY GOODBYE TO UNUSED STUFF
Many times when you start packing you will find things that you have not seen in YEARS! When you come across things like this you have to make the decision: Do I keep it? or do I toss it?
