Measure the rooms you are moving into before deciding what furniture comes with you. It is far easier to decide in advance than on moving day.

- Keep what you use, love or cannot replace
- Photograph items you are letting go of
- Ask family early about anything being passed on
- Book a clearance for whatever is left
