My Recent Move
So we (my partner and I) have been living with my Mother for the last year while sorting a place for us both. My partner's move was reasonably straight forward - remove the window to extract the sofas from the front room, then chuck all the furniture in the back of the van (Top Tip here, if you're moving, rent a Luton Transit with a tail lift - makes life loads easier. I got lucky and borrowed the works van) and transfer it to the garage. Repeat the next day for any loose stuff. Don't bother unpacking drawers, just pallet wrap them and load them on the truck.
The move to our new place couldn't have been easier though, as it was 5mins down the road. We didn't even bother to unpack the fridge and freezer, just wheeled them out last, strapped them into the side of the van, and shot down the road before plugging them straight back in the other end.
Rentacrates are also dead easy to work with, still got a few knocking round ATM.

This shames my efforts at being deliberately dull.
