Packed and Moved in 3 Hours

Here’s what my condo looked like before, above is after 45 minutes. The key to doing this quickly is to own very little, and keep it organized.

I’d received a surprise call, “Keri we have a van available early this evening” so I drove downtown and went into fast-forward mode.

Pro-packing tip: since I was unprepared, I had to locate a bunch of boxes quickly. Go to your closet Dollar Store and they’ll be happy for you to take them, it’s less recycling for them.

One last downtown selfie and out the door.

Why so fast?

Remember the week I picked up the keys to my new house? That was a Friday, and I’d had my laptops and phone wiped that Tuesday. Wednesday night I didn’t sleep at home.

Returned home Thursday, check the laptops logs, WTF the lid was opened at 12:47am? And a USB key inserted? It’s not a glitch, it’s a perfectly clean and updated computer. Hit the roof. This was bleeding into real life.

Put my computer and valuables on my back, grabbed a couple tshirts and never returned. Until this day I moved.

All belongings fit into a 2014 Ford Transit van.

So there you go, 3 hours total, it can be done.
