Let’s be honest. Packing is the worst part of moving. The removalists? They show up, they sweat, they lift heavy things, and they leave. Unpacking? That’s actually kind of fun—like Christmas morning, except you already know you own that weird lamp your aunt gave you. But packing? Packing is a soul-crushing, tape-gun-jamming, "where did all these books come from?" marathon of bad decisions. You tell yourself you’ll pack "one room a day." Then suddenly it’s moving eve, you’re ... Read more
