As Josh Haley, founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/movingastute.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Moving Astute<\/a> points out, \u201cIt provides a sense of familiarity, convenience, and comfort during the initial days of settling into your new space. Instead of feeling overwhelmed by the unpacking process, you\u2019ll have the essential items right at your fingertips.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This box must be easily accessible and identifiable (think large, clear labels). Ideally it should be with you during the move, not packed with all the other items in <a href=\"https:\/\/selfstorage.com\/blog\/what-to-know-about-renting-a-moving-truck-2\/\">a moving truck<\/a> or storage pod. If you\u2019ve got to pack it with your other things, just make sure it\u2019s packed last so you\u2019ll have access to it first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\"><a href=\"#top\"><strong>Back to Top<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"selecting-the-right-box\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Selecting-the-Right-Box\"><strong>Selecting the Right Box<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your moving essentials box isn&#8217;t just any box. Here are some tips on <a href=\"https:\/\/selfstorage.com\/blog\/best-places-to-find-moving-boxes\/\">choosing the best option<\/a> for these indispensable items:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/selfstorage.com\/blog\/best-places-to-find-moving-boxes\/\">Choose a box that&#8217;s sturdy<\/a> yet easy to transport<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Size matters: Make sure the box is <a href=\"https:\/\/selfstorage.com\/blog\/how-to-pack-moving-boxes-efficiently\/\">big enough to hold everything you&#8217;ll need<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If possible, use a box that is a different color than the others so that it easily stands out<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use a large, clear, concise label, like \u201cESSENTIALS\u201d or \u201cIMPORTANT\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Consider choosing a transparent box as they&#8217;re often sturdier, and you can quickly see what&#8217;s inside<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"essential-documents-and-information\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Essential-Documents-and-Information\"><strong>Essential Documents and Information<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most important things you can do to prepare for moving day is to have all your important documents and information in one easily accessible place. What items should you have ready to go?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Your passport, birth certificate, and other ID<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/selfstorage.com\/blog\/moving-insurance-benefits-2\/\">Insurance papers<\/a> and security deposit<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Basic tools, or a tool kit<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bath mat, bath towels, toilet paper, and personal hygiene items<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/selfstorage.com\/blog\/how-to-create-a-self-storage-inventory\/\">An inventory list of items<\/a> included in the move<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/selfstorage.com\/blog\/hiring-professional-movers-vs-diy-move\/\">Moving company<\/a> contact information<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rental, <a href=\"https:\/\/selfstorage.com\/blog\/signing-an-apartment-lease\/\">lease<\/a>, or purchase agreements<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Emergency contacts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Information for utility and service providers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Academic records and health records<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pet food and bedding<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\"><a href=\"#top\"><strong>Back to Top<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"basic-toiletries-and-personal-care-items\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Basic-Toiletries-and-Personal-Care-Items\"><strong>Basic Toiletries and Personal Care Items<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What people forget to tell you about moving is just how badly you&#8217;ll need a nice hot shower at the end of the day. Pack travel-sized personal hygiene items in your moving day box rather than digging through moving boxes at the end of the day. Some must-have personal items include toothpaste, a toothbrush, toilet paper, bath soap, deodorant, a towel, a shower curtain, shampoo, and conditioner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget to pack any necessary medication, medical records, a first-aid kit, and other items specific to your unique needs, like baby supplies, pet supplies, menstrual supplies, or contact lens solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-a89b3969 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.selfstorage.com\/\">Need Storage?
