Packing the kids’ rooms for a Kansas City move

Toys, bunks, and a room that is still lived in the night before. How we pack a child’s room — and what has to be off the stair before we start.

ARTICLE IMAGE

A child’s room is a bedroom with more loose pieces and a person who still wants to sleep there. Packing it is not the same as packing a bedroom and closet until the toys are in closed boxes and the bunk is a bed we can take apart. Kids and pets on moving day is who watches them. This page is the boxes. Two ZIP codes: Get my price.

Per box if you booked packing: standard $10–20, wardrobe $25–30 — packing. A bin of Lego is still a box. A loft bed is furniture — beds and disassembly. Photos of the bunk and the door: photos that get a written price.

What to finish before we arrive

Bunks, lofts, and the turn

A bunk that went up in 2014 may not turn on a walk-up landing. Same rule as furniture that will not turn. Drawers out if we have to tip it. A town home switchback is the same conversation.

Houses and apartments. Living room is a different room — packing the living room. Kitchen: how to pack a kitchen. Bathroom: packing a bathroom. Garage toys: garage as a room.

Frequently asked questions

Do you pack stuffed animals?

If we are packing the room, they go in closed bags or boxes. Loose on the bed is how the last hour disappears.

Can they sleep there the night before?

Yes. Pack around the bed. We take the bed apart in the morning. See beds and disassembly.

Will you move a trampoline?

Ask. Some outdoor pieces we will not. See what you are not taking and what not to put on the truck.

Two kids, one room.

Say how many beds and how many boxes. That is the hour, not a cute detail.

School starts Monday.

Book the Saturday you have. See month-end and Lee's Summit school-year moves.
