Thank you I’m moving & this helped a bunch. Moving can make you overwhelmed really fast.

Just found your videos not to love ago. I am in the process of moving been 3 year since I last move.

Great tips. Thank you for sharing 🇬🇧

How about mugs of tea pots? ❤️

So useful, thnx 😍

Her : you have to start packing 2-4 weeks early
Me : Starts packing 1 day before

My tips are to use your towels and sheets, clothes etc to pack your breakables then you are packing 2 at once.

Lots of tips and tricks…thanks for sharing

Hate moving but some tips are great.I learned you can only pack TV with bubble wrap ,plastic wrap can leave screen swipes.Try to get boxes,egg and apple boxes from grocery are great also tshirts for packing and old pages of magazines,crumpled up.Newspaper is hard to find now,and no more plastic shopping bags since they are bad for environment.I use a piece of cardboard over mirror and picture glass aside from tape.Yes Label per room a new number.K for kitchenLR for living room,B for bedroom,Ba for bath ,P for porch etc Works great for finding things.Any hints on mattress covers you used to get that at Bed bath and beyond.Also Home Depot better for bubble wrap and tuffy tubs etc than Wal-Mart?

I want to pull my hair out I have so much stuff and like 10 days to pack and I work

I wish I had more time :(

Most of this is great but why wouldn't you just label the boxes bathroom, kitchen, etc. Very tedious and complicated to do colour coding ... I don't believe the finalists will care enough to remember which colour goes with what room 🤷‍♀️

Great ideas!!❤

Great tips! Thank you so much! I use grocery store bags to keep shoes from touching other items in my suitcase when traveling. Another hack I would like to add in is, I use clothing like T-shirts to wrap my glass items in instead of newspaper. I usually wash the clothing afterward, but this works better for me.

For your bathroom items to keep from spilling:
Don't use an entire ziplock bag for each bottle! Take small squares of Saran wrap. Open bottle, put over the opening, close lid on top. Same exact idea, just without wasting ziplocks! 🙃

Thank you so much. We're heading into a cross-country move in South Africa and this video removes sooooo much of the anxiety. Nicely done, relevant, practical & brilliant!

Am procrastinating because I can't get rid of stuff... ...😢😅 Kitchen gadgets, clothes, shoes, even an old rug .... Needed your incentive 😉

Instead of parchement paper it's also an idea to use party plates or newspaper to pack them safely

Thabk you Mallory, This was so great for me. I've bad PTSD and my concentration and planning skills have disappeared. I've been so anxious about moving. It's felt like a herd of elephants I have to eat (instead of the proverbial one!) I took notes...! For the first time, I feel like I can do this. 🙂

Amazing video

Better hack for packing plates, use disposable plates & put one in between each plate. It’s way cheaper than parchment paper, that shizz is expensive. 😂 I also have an unlimited amount of grocery bags and use those to wrap things in.

Thanks

Great ideas! Thank you! Eating after a move is a thing. Meal plan is an underrated excellent idea after the stress of a move. 🎉

I'd use kraft paper and not parchment. Big rolls are much cheaper.

Some alternatives:
pack your shoes in plastic grocery bags
Wrap your dishes and cups with your shower towels and kitchen towels

Start packing and declutter as you go it’s a waste of time to declutter then go back and pack. If you haven’t organized your clothes now is not the time. As you pack your clothes declutter and get organized in the new place it should be easier because now you have less stuff. There were some good tips tho.

Great video!

This is really helpful. Moving is stressful and to be prepared getting things in order is essential. You have a new subscriber! Keep up the amazing work!!!

You said that all you need to wrap each dish in parchment paper, except that the label on the box says wax paper. I'm confused

Really helpful 👌, God bless you more 🙏 You Earned my subscription

Good job!

So i have to organize my house first to then MOVE 😂😂

Ah yes, my many dresses! (I’m a guy)

Thank your for useful tips

Im watching moving hacks even tho i should be packing right now

I thought the x is for the glass/mirror to be easily seen 😅

spillproofing liquids is a great hack.

Young woman is amazing! I have moved 14 times I’m getting ready to move from my 15th time and most of those were corporate moves so they were all taken care of and I didn’t have to do anything this time. I definitely have to do some stuff and this young woman has so many great ideas. This has been the best video how to on moving that I have seen and I’ve been watching dozens of them, thank you so much, Mallory!

I had to move the contents of my four bedroom home into a storage unit temporarily last year.
That labelling system isn’t gonna cut it. Each box needs the room it goes in plus a number and before you tape it up you take a photo of the contents including the box number. This is now your digital inventory system and will help you make it easier to find things. It will still be difficult but not impossible.
You can thank me later. 😉

Oh my God, not only are you beautiful, but you are amazing! Those tips that you gave from moving, I would have never thought of. Thank you so much for your information. It really is helping during my move. ❤

My shit was never organized to begin with...😢

I watch this video every time I need motivation to pack. Haha. So far this is the 3rd time, and hopefully last time. Moving every year sucks.

Ok, some good tips, but I need to know how to pack breakables like crysta vases and statutes and stuff . Do you have a video like that?

I love the parchment paper idea for packing dishes. I wrap my dishes in cling wrap, so I don't have to wash them when I arrive at the new place. You could do parchment between each item to help cushion them too!!

Great video. Helpful tips

Mallory Hudson, amazing video I really liked it

The tape on mirror does not prevent it from shattering, you need to pad it well too! The tape simply helps keeping the shards in place if the mirror does brake.

You gonna wanna.😂
