'Genius' packing hack that's 'amazing' for moving house is 'life-changing'
A woman has gone viral on TikTok after sharing her 'genius' moving hack that saves time and effort
A fashion enthusiast has left social media users gobsmacked after unveiling the "best moving hack" for clothes. One viewer was so taken aback that they admitted feeling "so dumb" after watching the video, presumably because they were surprised they hadn't thought of the trick.
On TikTok, @sydneyycannonnn shared the "genius" tip. In her video, Sydney informed viewers she had discovered "the best moving hack for those with a shopping addiction." As shown in Sydney's video, she saved time during her packing by leaving her clothes in her wardrobe and covering them with bin bags.
This method allowed her to transport her clothing efficiently, using the bin bags to safeguard her attire during the move and eliminating the need to rehang items upon arrival, reports the Express.
One impressed fan said: "No but this is genius." A fan wrote: "Wait I'm about to do this now." Someone praised: "This is amazing actually," while another viewer shared: "I feel so dumb."
It's not just clothes that might travel better in bags than boxes. In another video, TikTok user @gemmalomasjones advised followers: "YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS HACK! Moving house or just storing things the IKEA Dimpa are your guys!"
In her post, the blogger demonstrated how her family utilised the bags, filling them with various items for easy transportation. She had success using the bags to carry clothes, bedding, duvets, footwear, cuddly toys, jackets, board games, towels, festive decorations, electronics, and cushions.
She praised the "reusable" bags, which cost £3 from Ikea. She appreciated that they are "easy to carry and lift" and "you can see what's inside." One amazed viewer wrote: "This is soooo smart."
A second comment said: "We literally packed our entire house up with these!! Best ever!" A third shared: "I did this too with the exact same bags. Super sturdy and fits a lot!"
Meanwhile, a commenter shared: "I was moving every year for about a decade. I told myself I was going to IKEA for the meatballs but it was definitely for those bags," and a fan revealed: "This is exactly what I did when I moved. Makes it so much easier."
Someone else who liked the idea said: "Going have to invest in these when I move later this year. I was going use those beauty store plaid laundry bags." A commenter added: "So much better than boxes. You can reuse these and see through them."
Unimpressed, a viewer wrote: "But then you’re stuck with all these bags you have no use for once you’ve unpacked everything." However, a response said: "Sell them on. There's always someone moving!"
