How to sort your things
Split your tasks into before the move, the first day and after you settle in.
•
Needed on day one: toiletries, towels, chargers, a change of clothes
•
Needed within a week: basic kitchen tools, cleaning supplies
•
Can wait: books, seasonal clothes, decorations
To-dos before and after the move
Setting aside what you'll need on day one means fewer boxes to reopen.
