We also pack some of our customers and one things we've noticed is that many people go into packing day with a refrigerator and pantry full of food. Most of the time, we just pack it up, though opened jars and bottles take some extra care and packaging. Recently, though, we've taken to asking people if they really want to move all those mostly empty boxes and stale crackers.
So here's the advice: try to eat up some of that food in the weeks before we pack you up. It's likely that there will be a grocery store near your new place and you can re-fill those shelves after you unpack.
