The prompt · ChatGPT

Help me plan packing for a house move.

Moving date: [date]
Rooms: [list]
Who's moving: [adults, kids, pets]
Fragile or special items: [e.g. TV, plants, artwork, medicines]
Hours I can pack each day: [e.g. 1 hour weekday evenings, all Saturday]

Before you start, ask me up to 3 short questions if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers.

Then:
1. Give a packing countdown by room, starting with what we use least.
2. A simple box-label system (room + contents + priority).
3. An "open first" box list for each person and pet.
4. A list of things not to pack (documents, keys, chargers, meds).
5. What to do with food, plants and freezer contents.

Practical and in order. UK English.
