Agree. That is what we are doing as well. By the time I start loading my rental truck next week, the largest piece of furniture I will have is a dining table. Other than that, a small recliner, a few small tables and everything else will be in boxes and bins. Not only does it make moving easier and less expensive, a lot of furniture people decorate with where they are from just doesn't go well with the style and design of the houses in TV. I can't count how many pre-owned homes I have gone to open houses at, or seen online, that are chocked full of furniture that just doesn't belong at all. We are basically moving our mattress sets for 3 bedrooms, a dining table, a recliner, and the rest I'll refer to as non-furniture items.
One of the first sales agents I talked to when I began going out looking at homes when I visited TV told me that there are 2 things most new villagers bring too much of with them - furniture and cars.
