while still in the air force, when we were posted the Government sent in contracted movers, they moved everything, you left the house at 7am, and returned to do the final clean up usually about 1 pm.
One wife left them some scones, butter, jam, tea milk etc for their morning tea, when they returned, two years later, from Singapore, the unpacking crew found the morning tea things still there, even though the milk was now solid.
Since then, when possible, we have done it car full by car full over the preceding days, just leaving the beds, fridge etc for moving day.
Next move will start with a skip bin to put all the "will come in handy, some day" things into,
