It helped not only find what we needed, but when it came to unpacking each box I could form an organizing plan before I even opened the box. Contents – keeping a list of what is in each box was a life saver.I didn’t end up with Christmas decorations unpacked in August while school supplies were still packed away. It came in really handy when other people were helping unpack. Priority – I used this to just make note to myself over which boxes were most important to unpack first and which ones could wait a little while.Also, having them numbered made it really easy to find what I was looking for without having to open a bunch of boxes. The higher number on the box the higher the priority for unpacking. Box – I numbered all our boxes as well as labeled them.Room – jot down what room the contents of the box are from or what room you want them unpacked in.There is enough stuff going on when moving that making a complicated packing list just wasn’t practical. It is a really simple printable, but if you’ve been reading the blog for a little while now you know I like simple. Knowing myself I thought I would start using it with the best of intentions and then forget about in the chaos of packing, but that didn’t happen. The funny part was, when I first made it I liked the idea of it, but I honestly didn’t think I would use it. I really can’t say enough about how this printable made our last move so much smoother for me. Especially since we packed half the house, went to stay with my parents for a couple of months, and then went back up to pack the rest and move. Knowing where everything (or almost everything) was during the move made it so much easier. This printable was the star of the show during our last move. But for now, let’s check out the moving printables. I’ll be sharing that little project later on this month. Now that they’ve all gotten a little facelift I can’t wait to get them printed and set up my Move Planner. I would have been lost without them the last time around, and they’re the first ones I went to print out this time around. These three printables are my must have ones for planning a move. For the most part all I did was change the colours, fonts and tweak the layouts a little bit so they should print better. If you do, you’ll see I didn’t make too many changes to general purpose of the printables. You can still find the old ones on the Move Management Printables page, if you want to check those out. Before creating anymore new move planner printables, I felt it would be good to give the old ones a much need update. It’s not that the old ones were bad, but back then I was still learning the program I use for making printables and so the colours are a little wonky and the layout needs some tweaking. I just want to move! But since I can’t actually do any of that yet, I’m taking some time to fuel that desire into updating my move planner printables so that I can start creating our Move Planner.Īt first I was just going to use the ones I made last time, but after taking a peek at them and comparing them to the house hunting printablesI shared last month I realized they needed some updating first. I’m eager to empty rooms and start scrubbing them from top to bottom. I am actually longing for boxes filled, sealed, and stacked in the family room waiting to be loaded on to the truck. My heart longs to get this whole moving process started for real. There is an announcement I so desperately want to make here, but until we nail down a date and finalize the time line… well I just can’t, because it wouldn’t be true.
