How do you pack documents?
If you have a lot of documents to be moved, consider digitalizing them. The amount of paperwork in your home will be reduced, and less to be moved. If you do move the hard copies, pack them systematically, so unpacking is kept simple. Keep all moving documents with you while your personal belongings are in transit.
