Step: Roll clothes to fit more and reduce wrinkles
Step: Use the wheels to spare your back on heavy loads
Step: Keep documents and valuables in a carry-on you control
Step: Fill hard cases with fragile items wrapped in clothes
Step: Label each suitcase like a box, by contents
Step: Keep your essentials suitcase with you, not on the truck

Using luggage as moving boxes.

When: Pack suitcases in the final days before move day.
