Fuck your dishes right to hell. Pack exactly one box worth of fun coffee mugs, shot glasses, your kid’s favorite cereal bowls, etc. Then donate or chuck every other glass and ceramic plate, mug, tumbler, bowl, etc. Do not move them. They’re heavy AF, fragile AF, and when they get packed properly they create enough newsprint, bubble wrap, and cardboard to shame a 19th century robber baron, all to avoid “wasting” your 12 year old Target plates.
I’ve packed myself, overseen others packing, and even had a couple of corporate relos where someone else packed with minimal oversight. The combination of time, aggravation, breakage, and money is just not worth it. Then it almost all happens again when you unpack.
Just spend $100 on new shit.
