This is not an easy task, but it can be done.
The first thing is to start quickly packing. Don't forget to pack an essentials bag that includes a change of clothes, toiletries, chargers, as well as electronics.
As you’re packing make sure to wrap fragile items in clothes you have. This saves time since you’re killing two birds with one stone. Another idea is to tape (or shrink wrap) drawers shut instead of emptying them. While it will make your dresser or desk heavier, it will cut your time down. Only do this if your dresser is sturdy enough to handle the extra stress.
Another tip is to move all your hanging clothes at once using trash bags. Put the trash bag over the hangers (while they're still hanging), and cover the clothes in the chunk of clothes being covered by the bag. Do this until all your clothes are covered by bags. This protects your clothes from dirt and dust.
Finally, as you are packing throw out items you don’t need or don’t use. This will help declutter your home and makes it so you don’t have to pack every single thing in your house.
