Toilet paper, toothpaste, brushes, etc., are essentials you may need upon arrival at your new home. Pack a box with these types of items and load it on the van last so that it will be unloaded first.
Irreplaceable photos, financial papers, etc., should be personally transported by you during the move.
Unpack breakables over the box you’re taking them out of. That way, if you happen to drop an item, it will land on some packing material, reducing chances of breakage.
Start packing several boxes each day a few weeks before your move.
