I did a huge cleanout before I moved from Queensland to Tassie. Sold heaps of stuff, and what didn't sell in the garage sale, we donated it.

Then I packed every room in a few boxes at a time, and found it easier to not mix boxes with stuff from different rooms, just the same room. Most of them were pretty accurate, and I had a pen with me and wrote down everything that was in that box - with instructions as well if they were fragile. For example, I had written on one of them "Craig's bong - fragile - do not sit heavy things on me"

He doesn't have a bong, its a turkish pipe thing, but gee it made us sound more interesting folk than we actually are.. bhaahahahaha
