Liquor stores have the best boxes and the clerks hate having to break them down. Go to the local liquor store and ask them for boxes. You’ll get all you need.
Another good trick. Instead of packing delicates like plates with paper, use clean clothes. T-shirts will keep things from breaking and you cut down on the number of boxes.

This is a criminally underrated tip. Liquor boxes are seriously sturdy, and the size keeps you from overpacking them.
Packing dishes you can also use your clean kitchen towels/dishcloths too. Number your boxes too: 1 of 20, 2 of 20. Borg like.
One more thing…
Make an extra set of keys before you move in.
I find socks are really useful to pack mugs safetly
This is an epic suggestion.
