Moving is like a rite of passage, right? A necessary evil we all must endure at some point, and here I am, neck-deep in boxes and bubble wrap. This week, I dive into the chaos of moving—my house is closing on Friday, and I'm racing against the clock to get everything packed up and ready to go. Spoiler alert: my garage looks like a tornado hit it, but I'm determined to get it organized before the big day. I share some golden nuggets of wisdom on how to tackle your workshop packing like a pro. Think toolboxes, shrink wrapping, and those magical plastic totes from Home Depot that make life infinitely easier. Say goodbye to soggy cardboard boxes that fall apart at the slightest hint of rain—hello, well-stacked totes that can defy gravity! Plus, I get to give a shout-out to my pals at Bloom Pest Control and Pyramid Heating and Cooling for swooping in to help with the crawl space cleanup—seriously, who wants to crawl through a dark, damp space alone? Not me!

Takeaways:

• Moving is a joy, said no one ever – here's how to make it less painful!
• Packing your workshop? Use toolboxes, not cardboard boxes, for a cleaner move.
• Shrink wrapping your gear is the pro move – because who wants to deal with spills?
• Totes from Home Depot are your best friends for organizing during a move, trust me!
• Renting a truck with a lift gate is a game changer for moving heavy toolboxes.
• Shout out to Pyramid Heating and Bloom Pest Control for saving my sanity during this move!
