Maybe try your local supermarket for boxes? or places like bunnings etc, i'm sure all they do is throw away the boxes, they might be willing to give you some. (that's how we got most of our boxes for the move we just did!) ummm.... what else... make sure you ring around HEAPS of places for the carpet cleaning... we got a quote of about $300ish from one place and i'm glad i called around cos we ended up getting it done for about $150!

That's all i can think of now... if i think of more i'll come back!

I hope your move goes well!!
