ORGANIZE YOUR MOVE
Organizing your move is much easier than you would think!
Moving is a wonderful opportunity to get organized! It is time to un-jam closets or cupboards, un-dump drawers and anything else that is hidden away. Even the most organized person will occasionally have to return to unused or unseen items to remember they own them in the first place.
Moving is the time to go through all of your "stuff". Some you will keep, some you will give away and lots you will trash! Take the extra time as you are packing to review what you own and make sure everything is something you will find necessary and useful in you new life. If it does not cut the mustard, it is time to throw it away.
You may even find you can "lighten the load" saving you packing time and moving costs as you find things you no longer need.
Keep the stuff someone else will find usable so give to charity as you leave.
This can all be a very uplifting experience, honest it can!
Now, start packing by area. This will make unpacking much easier once you arrive. Keep your linen closet items together, bathroom items together, tools or garage items in as many boxes as is necessary.
It is that simple!
Moving can be traumatic or it can be a new adventure for the whole family.
A good rule is never say yes immediately unless you really feel you want to do it.
Getting Organized For College
You will naturally wish to remain organized so that you will have more time for yourself.
You will not likely miss it! Just write them down on your list as those who require an attitude adjustment and then save that chore for next time. Look carefully at your living and dining rooms to see what they say about your relationships. Let the house collapse all around you before you do. When you do this, staying organized will not feel as much of a chore. When was the last time you organized that junk drawer, or sorted through your fridge?
