in another unit, fill in some foam around and on top, etc. This is what
I did, and the best part is it made for permanent storage so that when I
moved I didn't need to worry about pulling my systems back out and
stacking them until I was good and ready. I just recently started
opening boxes and made a big mess of my garage, but for 8 months
everything was really organized.
For the love of God, Montressor, _don't forget to label the boxes!_ And I
do mean a _full catalog_. As a bibliophile who has moved books in large
quantities on several occasions (and Ben Franklin had it right: three
moves equals one fire) I know that it can be a hassle when you _really
need_ just that one item, and it's in one of the boxes filling _that half_
of the room. All the same size, color, label (front room).
