Ditto on this.
Also, paper tape is crap. Get the annoying plastic tape that needs the dispenser. I am a sucker and get the paper tape every time, but it always tears. Professional movers ALWAYS use the plastic tape.
Don't over pack your boxes. You'll end up busting through the bottoms and hurting yourself trying to lift them. If you get big boxes, fill them with large, light objects, not heavy objects like books.
