Is it faster to pack or unpack when moving?

As tempting as it is to stop unpacking boxes, just dive in and carry them box by box. Try to have the basics first in kitchens, bedrooms, and bathrooms. Write “first” on the boxes with the essential items in each of those areas that you will have to open immediately, such as the one with the coffee maker and the corkscrew. It will make you pack faster and also make it much easier to unpack.
