Moving houses is often exhausting and time-consuming, but a clever mum has revealed hack to help streamline the process.
Gold Coast mum Kat Lane posted video with her 17,000 TikTok followers and shared how she organises her family's belongings when moving.
Using a $12 packet of coloured paper from Kmart, she corresponds each colour to a different room in the new house, then sticks a piece of cardboard on the box.
The products for each room are packed into the correct boxes and placed in the right room upon arrival at the new location.
Colour coordinating the boxes makes it easier to ensure the boxes are placed in the right room without having to read what has been written on top.?
