2. We pack our boxes intelligently
-
Now that your mental load is lightened, we get into the thick of things, the most complex part and the one we all procrastinate on the most… Packing boxes. But there’s no question of procrastinating, deadlines are tight so let’s get to work!
First, make sure you are well equipped, you need at least:
Small, medium and large boxes, bags, newspaper or bubble wrap that you have recycled, scissors, tape, a cutter, felt-tip pens and pens.
Our first tip is to start packing the things you won't need until your moving date, but before you start packing your things, always make sure to stay organized:
One box = one room! You can write the name of the room and very briefly the contents of your box, this will make your life easier when unpacking your boxes in your new home!
And ahhh for dishes, the golden rule to avoid breakage is to wrap each fragile object in newspaper or bubble wrap! And when you have put all your dishes in their box, you can fill the empty spaces with newspaper!

3. Sort things out for a more peaceful mind
Moving is an ideal opportunity to start a life on a new healthy basis. It starts by getting rid of things that clutter us, take up space and energy in our new environment and our mind. A fairly simple rule when you want to keep or part with an object is to ask yourself if you will need it in the last 6 months or the next.
If the answer is no and you have no sentimental affection for this object, then you can consider getting rid of it!
Today there are platforms to give a second life to your objects: Kijiji, Facebook marketplace, etc.
You can also do a good deed by donating your items. If you live in Quebec, there are donation centers such as Renaissance, Village des valeurs, and other thrift stores and donation centers in your neighborhood that will be happy to collect your items for free!
If you've been keeping clutter for years without knowing what to do with it, it might be time to get rid of it once and for all!
If you live in Montreal, check the city's bulky waste collection site to find out the dates and times of collection as well as the materials accepted!
You can also find a place that would allow you to store your furniture or your very bulky tools! Moving Waldo offers you an optimal list of places to store your furniture closest to you! You just have to indicate your postal code and a multitude of offers will be available!
