Making room for a toothbrush and some towels may seem like an easy task, but there are more items to account for than you may realize. When packing for a move, many people often overlook the bathroom. Don’t make the mistake of assuming since this room smaller, that it will be an easier to pack.
The bathroom is best left as the last room to pack since you will use many of the items in the bathroom up until the day of your move. For a head start in packing the bathroom, clear out items you won’t need such as under-the-sink items, extra towels and bathroom decor. Be sure to leave some cleaning supplies to scrub down your bathroom before moving out.
