Here’s the advice you will get.

Bring less stuff than you think
Don’t bring as much furniture as you think, just the basics, in the event it take 10 weeks to get new stuff
Moving stuff could cost more than scrapping at home and buying new
Keep some warm clothes, sweaters, some jackets, hats and gloves - it’s in the 30’s some mornings and eventings.
You don’t need more than one set of dishes, silverwear, etc - the formal dining room plates arent needed.
Overall, less is better.
