Moving : The Checklist

In exactly seven days we will move to the new house.  We have choose a 22 x 75 double story link in Ara Damansara. That is the smallest house that we can find over there. 

Now that we have a place ready for us the moving becoming easy. 

Our simple checklist are as follows:- 

Identified  
We make list what we want & what to give away.  We both keep counter checking each other so we won't be taking junk along with us.   

note : not an easy task. I almost want to take everything!

Packing 
Boxed what we want but unnecessary for now like clothes, utensils, books and send to the new house every now and then.

I sold glasses, tea sets, old posters frames, and bags to Cash Converter. The reimbursement is not so much but at least it is better than throw it away and I love the fact that I can shop for new and latest glassware.

I gave old clothes to Orang Asli and my cousins, about 20 pieces of pasu bunga we sent to our parents and a lots of VCDs we gave to cat's food supplier. Our house is practically empty now. The only item that still standing is this PC. I will dismantle it after typing this post :)

note: take the longest time. Be prepared to change your mind

Mover
Darling Hubby has arranged with his friend, a professional mover to assist us. They supply us with box and bubble wrap. It is challenging to wrap glassware without the desire to picit-picit the bubble wrap.  Strong and firm heart is required. 

note: the reward is I can picit-picit bubble wrap after settle down

Date of moving
This is important to ensure no clash with kenduri or travelling and the mover has another job.

That's it. We are ready to move.
