You probably think you know what it takes to move, but, inevitably, you will need unexpected packing accessories. It's best to get a jump start and make your packing as streamlined as possible. Here is a short list of "must have" items for when you start to pack.

• Boxes
• Tape/tape dispenser for boxes
• Markers to label everything
• Brown paper or plain newspaper to protect delicate items
• Stretch wrap to hold together items with multiple parts
• Inflatable bags to fill empty spaces
• Foam peanuts to fill empty spaces
• Blank labels to provide info about the boxes' contents, e.g., 'Fragile', 'Kitchen'
• Box cutter to cut through tough seals and textiles.
• Mattress covers to protect mattresses from punctures and rips
