Much has been said already - and still is being said - about the issue of climate change and how we need to take concrete steps to make out life greener and more environment friendly. The effects of climate change are slowly being felt by one and all, regardless of where you are in the world, which is why it's high time for everybody to take the necessary steps to be more green.   The same applies of course, to moving, which can also be made green, with a little effort. The first is recycling all the excess things you aren't going to bring with you on your move. Make sure you leave all the unnecessary items - you can even be more productive by selling them in garage sales for a bit of added income - albeit a bit small, but every little bit helps. You can also naturally bring recyclables to recycling centers, and even donate usable items to the less fortunate. That's two good deeds with one stone.   Another is to use used or recyclable boxes / containers for your move. Used boxes will of course need to be inspected to make sure that they are usable enough; using used boxes will also save you a bit of money too as they're cheaper than buying brand new ones. You can also rent reusable plastic boxes that you return when the move is over.
