I found packing took less effort when I stopped trying to do the whole house at once. I packed one room at a time and wrote the room name on each box. I kept things we still needed, such as toiletries, chargers and basic kitchen items, aside until the end. Checking wardrobes, cupboards, garages and outdoor storage also stopped us from finding forgotten items after the move. It’s worth checking access and parking before moving day too. A quick chat with removalists in Canberra may help you understand what needs to be ready before the truck arrives.
