Struggling with where to start packing? Discover a pro movers’ timeline to pack smart and stress-free in Philadelphia. Pack the right way — step by step.
When packing is left to the last minute, things get misplaced, damaged, or simply forgotten. Creating a clear schedule keeps things under control and reduces last-minute anxiety.
Begin with items you rarely use:
Off-season clothing
Books
Holiday décor
Extra linens or kitchen gadgets
Label boxes clearly and stack them neatly in a room you don’t use daily.
These are items you still use but not daily. Think:
Guest room items
Spare dishes or utensils
Decorative items and framed photos
Unused electronics
Now’s a great time to declutter — donate or discard what you don’t need.
This is the “almost ready” phase. Pack:
Majority of clothes (leave outfits for the final week)
Most cookware
Important documents (store in a labeled folder)
Keep a checklist so you don’t pack things you’ll still need.
Create a small “daily kit” for your final days and the first night in your new home:
Toiletries
Chargers
Medications
A few changes of clothes
Snacks, water, and basic tools
