Tag-A-Room Color Coded Home Moving Alert Box Label Stickers (Donations)

I lived with a hoarder for 2 decades. When I finally got a place of my own, I could not figure out why after 5 months I had few less boxes, had not found many things I needed and seemed to only find duplicates and triplicates of things I already owned. My eldest asserted I was a hoarder now which just didn’t ring true with myself or my therepist.Here is where the Labels come in....I had a system and would use postit note on the boxes to day donate or write with sharpie on 1 side of them, then place them next to the front door after getting agreement from family that if there were more than 3 they would take them to the car to be donated. (Many donation places stopped picking up donations and the ones that do are not in line with my core beliefs. So they needed to be put in the car.)I discovered that instead of them disappearing because they were donated, they were simply being moved back to the stack of boxes that I was unpacking. (Insert swearing here.)I had a family meeting after buying these stickers. Discovered even I didn’t notice the sharpie donation word because of the visual clutter of a shipping box. We agreed to try again and I would use these stickers! AND IT HAS WORKED!!!Now I get only a few boxes by the door and within a few days I drive past a donation place and drop them off. (Maniacal cackle of pure glee!) I am no longer hostage to “stuff”. I don’t have to hand $1,000 every time I have a trash crew take it for me. I am no longer questioning if I’m a black out Hoarder. Nor do I feel seething resentment for being trapped by stuff I already thought I had gotten rid of.My family and I are much happier and actually I am getting so much more help now they see progress too!They have even got an empty box in their closets with the donation sticker on the inside flap so it stays open and they just put items in there as they get dressed or use something in the moment they realize it is no longer filling their need. They just put it in the box until it is full, close the flaps, put 2 more stores on the outside and then place it by the front door! (Gasp of shock) I seriously though I would never see them do something as proactive as that in my lifetime!From the woman who used to have happy dreams of burning the house with all the things in it (not the people) to the ground just so I could imagine feeling free of the servitude to clutter, to the woman who is now happily chucking so far 30% of what I have simply because I don’t need or want it. We are all so much happier and my hone is getting cleaner and less boxes every few days!!! Never thought stickers would work better than family therapy! Save yourself the suffering and stress. Just get the stickers and use them liberally.

It's that dreaded moving time again! Well, thank goodness for great labels like these that help make the job a bit easier. I love that they're on flat sheets; I've used the roll type before and they always come unrolled and get tangled up everywhere - not fun. Also love that they included nice big FRAGILE labels - I mean, who can't use those?? And my very favorite was the OPEN FIRST label - I was beginning to wonder if I was the only person who wrote this on boxes because I never came across labels for it before. They've really covered just about every room and scenario with these labels, although I found it odd that there was no label for a study or office. But at least they included blank labels that you can personalize as you need. They're easy to pull off the sheets, nice bright visible colors, and seem to stick well. Also you get a LOT of them for a great price. I'm happy to recommend these to others.

At the time I ordered them, I could not find the size of the HEAVY labels, so I posted the question. Someone with the username LM responded "5 x 4" and based on that information I decided to order them. I was very disappointed when they arrived and noticed that the actual size of each label is 3.75" x 1". One sheet with 5 labels is about 3.75" x 5". I feel is kid of ridiculous not to include the size of the labels on the description. On top of that, some labels are coming offat the corners when placed on cardboard boxes.

Needed these for a move. The large letters and the color made each fragile box identifiable.The only problem is that I underestimated the amount of packages needed. If you put more than one sticker on a box and if you have more boxes than the number of stickers , then you will definitely need more.

definitely recommended. would buy again if needed.

I have some very heavy furniture pieces and this comes in handy to let the movers know before hand. Quite visible. If the movers can't see the sign, they're blind. ;)

worked great, just wish there were more in the package!

These stickers were very helpful with an international shipment. The labels did not fall off the cardboard boxes or plastic storage bins even through the hot and humid summer months and 3-weeks at sea in a container going to Europe. After unpacking the plastic bins, I wanted to remove the labels and found that not much residue remained (in some cases, no residue). I did not put these stickers on glass, so I can’t comment on their adhesive on glass or mirrors. Very happy I purchased these.

I’m getting ready for our 12 months move and I’m using these so the removalsts are aware of the heavy boxes. All the labels from Tag-a-Room have been great, they stick on very well and i would definitely recommend you purchasing them when moving together with Fragile and Heavy.
