Declutter Aggressively
It makes sense that you save time when you pack fewer items. Take stock of your current inventory, then see which ones you can dispose of or sell. A general rule is that if you haven’t used something for more than a year then you probably don’t need it.

Draft a detailed plan and include critical steps such as change of address for services and utility transfers, among others. Expand the points further by breaking it down into weekly tasks.
Pack by Room
Adopt a strategic approach and start packing room by room. Focus on one at a time so you don’t mix them. When you arrive, you can set the boxes in their respective rooms and unpack. This saves you valuable time and it’s a fairly straightforward approach as well.
Prepare Your New Home
Don’t wait until moving day to prepare your new house. Schedule a visit or two and prepare- set up utilities and clean up a bit. You can wipe the surfaces down, plug the fridge, or install the air conditioner so you can be comfortable once you step inside your condo.
Pre-Cooked Food or Order as You Arrive
Cooking can take a long time, but there’s a quick and convenient way to eat. You can have snacks or ready-made meals set before you travel. In addition, you can grab some fast food or pizza via an app or delivery service.
