That way you can just roll them! I also use t-shirts as packing/cushioning along with the towels and blankets. We are debating this next move if we will do it ourselves or not.

The Air Force reimburses 95% of moving costs when you DITY, AND we don't have to worry about our stuff getting lost, so we're all over it. It's good to know moving truck companies will price match!
