Most stores that sell plastic crates sell pretty decent transparent
ones.

And even WITH it, helpers will still place stuff in the wrong place.
Let me
clarify what I meant: By all means label the boxes per room, with a
simple
label such as "Kitchen utensils; Gaming stuff; bathroom supplies" etc.,
but
the clear containers helps after you've moved for knowing What's in
which
box - I should have said it reduces the DETAIL of labelling required.
In my
33 years I have moved.... Lord, I don't have time to count. Poppa was a
rolling stone... actually, an itinerant pastor. So I've packed and
unpacked
a few times. I 've learned to rely on my self for getting the stuff to
the
right place. Helpers are for transit between residence/transportation
and
vice-versa ONLY. ;-)

Agreed.
