It’s no secret that moving into a One 51 Place apartment, while exciting, is no small task. Moving, in general, tends to be a bit of a pain – packing up every single thing you own, transporting it to a new place, and then unpacking things into their new spots. That’s why many people take the time to purge some old or unused items before they move. With less to transport, moving will become easier and less time-consuming.

If you’re struggling with what to get rid of before your move to One 51 Place, here are a few ideas to get you started:

• Old electronics – If you’re still holding on to old laptops, phones, iPods, and other electronics, you may want to consider transferring the data you need and getting rid of those items before you move. Not to mention that drawer you probably have filled with old chargers.
• Old bath products – Shampoo bottles, lotions, perfumes, and other bath products can easily accumulate in your bathroom. Toss any expired items or products you no longer use before you move.
• Clothing – Make your closet easier to move by donating clothing that you don’t wear anymore. Consider donating items that no longer fit, are out of style, or that you simply haven’t worn in the last year.
• Containers and dishes – If you’re holding onto chipped dishes or containers whose lids were lost long ago, you may want to toss them and invest in a new set of dishware for your new apartment.
• Old food – Go through your pantry and refrigerator for expired items before you move. Also, if you are unable to keep perishable food from going bad during your move, try to use it up before you have to go.

When considering what items are worth moving to your new apartment in Alachua, FL, try to be realistic. If nostalgia is the only reason you have for holding onto something, it may be easier to just let it go.
