go to tescos, asdas, shops, local supermarkets and get any boxes they have or ask to keep them for you. Its a real pita moving, good luck hun

Try what im doing hun .... a few boxes a day or you could do one room a day.

Break it down so its not one big job it'll be much easier if you do it bit by bit, then you wont be so busy and the kiddies wont be running you ragged lol

As for boxes ... dont stress about that right now. Pack some stuff in binbags and get it out of the way, then at least its done!!

I was thinking bout doing it in bin bags. Ive only got two rooms to pack as when we moved from our house to my dads we could only bring certain things so alot of our things are in storage so i guess thats a good thing. But right now..i think im just stressing which is making everything look harder and bigger to do.

any soft stuff in bin bags and argos do a good moving house pack with boxes of different sizes, tape etc....

We got our boxes in a house moving pack from argos - a bit of a farce but I can't go and collect boxes cause I'm 'disabled' and DH isn't much better - neither of us drive either. We used them and black bags

Ring big shops like B&Q they get BIG strong boxes in each week - I did this when I moved frm Corby they flat packed em down for me to and rang me when they ready to collect! tesco you will get banana boxes with lids they are not big but they suit well for breakables kitchen wear etc small things that are heavy that if in a big box with loads of other stuff = too heavy!
