This is why de-cluttering and careful packing is a necessity. Before you start putting all of your things into your boxes, get rid of the stuff you no longer need. Go through everything in your home. Decide whether to take it with you, sell it, donate it, or put it in the bin.

Some items may be so big or oddly shaped that they require their own box to move. It is often hard to calculate how many boxes of what sizes are needed. The best thing to do is to go around the house and write down a list of all the items which will be getting boxed up in order to be moved.

Once the list has been made then the individual in question should take another piece of paper and draw four columns; small, medium, large and extra-large. These columns obviously refer to the size of the boxes. The final step is to enter each piece of furniture written down into one of the four columns. This will help to give people the best possible estimation of how many boxes are required. It is always a good idea to buy a couple in excess to be covered. Nobody wants to run out of boxes.
