Things you can’t have enough of while packing:

• Ziploc bags, sandwich-sized and gallon-sized, to pack all the loose crap in;
• small boxes, to prevent yourself from packing too much in a single box;
• cable ties and velcro wraps, to hold together pretty much anything;
• bubble wrap, to protect pictures, mirrors, and electronics;
• plastic milk crates, to carry things like plants and breakables to the truck;
• air conditioning;
• friends.
