Finally ready to pack up and move to your new house? If so, then be careful to learn from the experience of others and not make these common, costly packing mistakes. First, avoid over-packing: space things out and use more boxes, or you’re likely end up with breakage. Secondly, be careful with liquids – enough said? And, when you think that you’re really all packed, look again – those things you’ve grown used to seeing sitting there need to come with you this time!
Key Takeaways:

- For one, don’t overpack your boxes – that’s just going to cause them to break!
- And, before you leave for good, triple check to ensure that every last thing is coming with you.
