Every item you move costs van space, and every item you store costs rent. A short decision pass before packing usually pays for itself.
Three questions per item
- Would I buy this again today at its replacement cost?
- Does it fit the new property — physically and practically?
- Is it worth more than the cost of moving and storing it for a year?
Genuine reasons to store rather than sell
- Furniture waiting on a renovation or a room not yet finished.
- Items with sentimental value where the decision shouldn't be rushed.
- Seasonal or hobby equipment used every year.
- A downsizing move where the family hasn't yet decided who takes what.
Doing it in one pass
The efficient version is one sweep per room, three piles: moving, storing, going. We can collect the storing pile on the same day we move the rest.
