Pretend that you're going on vacation. Pack a bag, live out of it as though you were at a hotel. Even go out to eat or order in as often as possible. Have some fun with this. If you are looking for the best free boxes in town, try behind the St. Helena Wine Merchants and St. Helena Wine Center.
Wine boxes are strong, clean and easy to carry.
There are some interesting new shapes, as well. If you want to purchase boxes, go to Turner Moving and Storage. They also sell blank newsprint, which is much cleaner to pack with than old newspapers. Pack boxes by rooms - keep detailed labeling to a minimum. Alert the Post Office, phone company, etc.
