It's after spring break and if you live in a dorm, then move out day is quickly approaching. You all know the drill: pack up your dorm during finals week and have everything out by a specified time.
Now, you're probably going to have more things than you came with during move in, with any trips home and shopping you've done. Cars and suitcases have very limited space, so you should start moving things out if you didn't take anything home during spring break. And these are the 10 things you should send home early to save you the hassle on move out day.
1. All your sweaters
Suitcases can only fit so much. Come May, you don’t want to have to be sitting on your suitcase to zip it because your 25 sweaters are in it. You’re not going to wear them at all after spring break.
2. 90% of your textbooks
If you haven’t opened it once this semester, you’re definitely not going to open it to study. Just go ahead and send any textbooks you aren’t using home. They’re just taking up space at this point.
3. Your mini fridge
The last thing you want to do during finals week is defrost your fridge. It also takes up a lot of space in your car and you can only make one trip once you move out. Just go ahead and send it home at the end of April. It’s one last thing to worry about and now you have more space for your other things.
4. Dishes
Let’s face it, you probably don’t use them anyway if your dorm doesn’t have a kitchenette.
5. Appliances
Coffee makers, electric kettles, toasters (that you’re probably not supposed to have) can also go home early. If you want, just send them home with the fridge at the end of April so you’re only going a week or two without them.
6. Extra cleaning supplies you haven’t touched yet
Definitely make sure you have at least one full container of Clorox wipes, but your extra shower cleaner, air freshener, and all can go home. You’re not going to use it all up before the end of the semester.
7. Boards
If you have a bulletin board or a dry erase board that you don’t need for any thing school related, pack those in your car and take them home. (It also give you time to fix any paint on the wall that might get damaged from taking them down.)
8. Your furniture
Start sending all the big stuff home. If you brought a chair, send it home and use your desk chair. Trunk? Pack all your extra stuff and take it home. Believe me, it will save you the hassle on move out day.
9. Clothes you don’t wear
Whether it’s winter clothing or clothes you brought for any potential dates that you haven’t worn, get it out. As mentioned before, your suitcase can only hold so much and anything you don’t wear is taking up space for things you do.
10. Valuables
Video game systems, jewelry, lock boxes, TVs, and anything else valuable should go home early. That way you don’t have to worry about them in the chaos of moveout day.
Getting these ten things out of your dorm early will save you a lot of headaches. It's just one less thing to worry about during finals week.
