Packing a moving van can seem like a big challenge for anybody. Go into moving day armed with these tips.

First, make sure to disassemble your furniture as much as possible.

Then, to start packing the van, begin with your heaviest items, like your dressers or sofa. Load them in the back toward the cab.
