Poll Move and then throw out? Throw out and then move? What happened the last time you moved? (96 votes)
Jeff G's recent moving experience, plus stories from what other people have done, made me wonder what the typical moving experience is?
It seems like (based on all those stories) that only people who are moving a very long distance, where bringing all their crap along would be cost or space prohibitive, will actually get rid of ton of stuff before moving. Otherwise, their experience seems like mine -- I've been living in the same place now for 11 years, and I still have stuff sitting in the boxes we packed them in. (However, unlike some, at least all our boxes have been opened at least once -- but a lot that is because a few years ago I was looking for an important piece of paper and couldn't find it anywhere.) I have done one junk run in all that time, but, man, there's so much more crap I need to get rid of...
