yes i would start gathering boxes and putting things in it that you do not really use every day, it makes it a lot easier later on (or so i found)

Definitely start packing!

I would start with things you won't need between now and closing -- out of season clothes, fine china, books, etc.

Re: Closing in one month... packing???

we're closing 10/12 and haven't even mentioned packing. honestly i think our cats would go bezerk.

i'd say it depends on your situtation. do you have to be out of your current place immediately?

we live in an apt in MIL's house, and are having work done to our house before we move in, so it's not a rush for us. plus the house is about 10 blocks away, so we can always just throw crap in the car and drive it over if we want Chat Icon

Re: Closing in one month... packing???

I'm awaiting a closing date (hopefully sometime next week so I don't have to pay to keep my rate lock !!) and haven't started packing yet !!Chat Icon I'm also 29 weeks pregnant and starting to move slower then usual - so packing / moving should be FUN !! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I regret waiting - I would do and the other poster daid and start to pack things that you don't really use first. I'm going to start this weekend !!

Good luck in your new home !! Chat Icon Chat Icon
