Declutter with Purpose
One of the most impactful steps in moving sustainably is decluttering. Not only will it lighten your load, but it also means using fewer packing materials and transportation resources.
Swap Single-Use for Reusable Packing Materials
Packing often involves plastic tape, bubble wrap, and single-use boxes – but there are greener options:
Pack Smart to Save Space and Trips
Efficient packing not only saves time but also reduces the number of trips between your old and new home, cutting fuel use and emissions.
