Wrap it up like the dishes, packed in sturdy boxes with newspaper or other packing, and, as with
your pipes, move them yourself. So many things get buried or outright lost in a move. Have a place
in mind where you will place and store the pipes and tobacco at the new residence, and write in on
the side of a door or somewhere you can readily see it. This sounds nuts, but moving your home
is like running yourself through a dryer (figuratively). Everything gets hopeless jumbled, for most
people. There are probably a few Prussian generals who know where every safety pin is at every moment
of a move, but no one wants to be a Prussian general anyway.
