You’ve never moved before, so you’re not really sure what you need or what the move is going to be like. So get someone who has moved before and ask for some advice. Whether it’s about packing, things you need to bring, or just cleaning tips, an experienced mind can give you some valuable help. You’ll be kicking yourself if you realize you forgot to bring a trash can, a blanket, a fan, dishes, silverware, socks, a toothbrush. A second mind can help make sure you have everything you need.
