Move with a plan of the next room, not only a van

People pack first and measure later. Then the sofa that defined the old flat blocks the only window in the new one.

As soon as you have the keys, photograph the empty rooms and drop the furniture you intend to keep. Be willing to sell the piece that fails the new plan. Sentiment does not widen a wall.

The studio is unusually good at this because the new rooms have no styling to hide behind. You will see the leftover aisle as it will be on the first Tuesday.

Carriers charge for mass. Do not pay to move a problem into a nicer postcode.
