Moving Advice.. a lot of diapers!

So I’m getting married in 2 weeks to the love of my life! I’m super excited, but that means moving in together to a new place. And I have a lot of diapers. 4 cases of 80, and at least 10 other cases of 40 to move. She knows, accepts, and loves this part of me.

My question is, how can I move it all without it being too obvious to family that is helping me move?

Should I just move one or two cases now, and bit by bit move the rest by the end of September? Or should I just move my stuff at once and hope people don’t notice so many boxes with the same density and size?

I new this day would come, but I really loved building up my stash :yum::upside_down:

Depends on whether they just help you carry stuff from one place to the other or are likely to unpack moving boxes unto shelves.

You could pack each bag of diapers in its own generic cardboard moving box, fill it up with other stuff such as clothes, mark those boxes with “sleeping room” and only let them unpack boxes with books, dishes and alike.

Move a few boxes at a time by yourself and nobody will know about what is in the boxes.

I’d definitely rebox. Blank boxes…and with lots of tape. YMMV.

Blank boxes, put random stuff on top of the diapers. You should be OK because then if they pop open the box they’ll say “Oh, it’s whatever

Or you could tell them that you’ll take care of blankets/towels being put away and put some on top of the diapers and just have them give a yell if they pop the box open and it’s towels or something. (Ostensibly that you can come get it and put the towels away but really so you can re-stash the stash and put the towels away. XD)

[edit]

The logical reasoning behind me saying towels or blankets is that diapers can be heavy and towels or blankets can also be heavy. Maybe stash some papers on some just to break it up and not seem like you have a weird amount of linens. XD

I didn’t realize you were talking about like…14 cases of diapers. XD

It might be better for you if you just move all of those in yourself in one go and have them already stashed away so you don’t have to stress even more during the move. My method would work best if you only had a few packs or cases. 14 cases is a bit much to ‘trick’ people through. LOL

And what I mean by move them yourself is to move as many as you can BEFORE people start helping you. If anyone asks just say it was some fragile stuff you didn’t want to get banged around by accident so you took it over ahead of the big day. If they ask why just be like “Oh, if I break something I can only be upset at myself.”

If you are really worried about them questioning/snooping through boxes (assuming you box them as suggested by others) it may be worth it to pay for a storage unit and move them at your own convenience. More work, more money, but it could be practical for you.

Good thing you have 2 weeks.

I remember when I moved once, the next to last thing I packed were diapers. My brother who was helping me move insisted on seeing my place the night before moving so he knew how much work it would be. I was all organized and packed but about 2 dozen neatly stacked diapers were still on a shelf where I left my closet door open. He didn’t notice but sadly I didn’t find a means to pack these diapers inconspicuously.

Long story, short, I had to discard the diapers the night before I moved :cry:

I just moved. I moved all my diapers and crossdresseing accessories boxed up and in the back of my tuck marked Moms and dads room noone was the wiser and kids really didn’t want to unpack anything that wasn’t theirs anyways :smiley:

Thanks for the advice guys. I’m considering spreading out the cases over time, I can actually leave them where I’m staying right now until the end of September. Also I guess I can load the truck with it first, and then after getting help unloading most everything else, say “that’s good for today” and unload them afterwards.

And yes, it’s an exorbitant amount of diapers. But I love it!! And auto ship is so easy… :joy:

I’d probably just put them in plain boxes and tape them shut really good. Then write storage and don’t unpack on the boxes.

I recently moved and had friends and family help. We just wrapped the boxes in black pallet wrap, ssme with the dress up stuff and toys. Wrote bedroom on and they carried them to the van, then out the van and to our room. We just said we’ll unpack over time.

No one has ever asked about them so i assume no one noticed
