Always promise your roommates that youll clean up and always ensure that some of your friends pass out at your place. This allows you to enslave them for 10 minutes to clean up.

Of all the transitions in life, moving must be the most cumbersome and trivial of them all. Between the lifting of heavy objects to making sure you packed everything, moving is, quite frankly, difficult.

Moving out of the dorms is especially tricky. Everybody does it on the last day and it is really an ordeal if you live on a floor above five. Another obstacle is moving into the place youve picked out. Beyond that is keeping the place clean and being respectful to your roommates. Whether you are going to an apartment or a flat, moving is still tough.

Tip No. 1: Be the last person to move in.

This is crucial. If you move in first you will undoubtedly be moving with the least amount of help. Moving in last or close to last allows your roommates to aid you in your ongoing endeavor.

Start out by moving the small boxes first and work up towards the bed and sofa. With any luck and timing your roommates will be stuck with the heavy loads while you sit back and watch.

Take frequent bathroom breaks and say youre going to check out the place every once in a while. This allows you to disappear for an unprecedented amount of time with good excuses.

Tip No. 2: Another trick to keep up your streak of laziness.

Get everyone together and suggest that you all do the dishes. Its simple: put everyones name on the fridge in vertical fashion. The person on the top does the dishes and then puts his name on the bottom. It is then the new person on tops turn to do the dishes.

This is not only an effective way to keep the kitchen clean (sometimes a roommate will go the extra mile and clean up a little more), but there is a lazy loop hole as well. As soon as its your turn to do the dishes, eat something, clean the dish and move your name.This will last as long as the roommates dont get pissed off.

Tip No. 3: Keep your parties low key unless theyre your parties.

Always promise your roommates that youll clean up and always ensure that some of your friends pass out at your place. This allows you to enslave them for 10 minutes to clean up.

Once again, use the bathroom excuse and duck out if possible. If you cant get away, go for cleaning up the cans. Its a simple and easy task that will leave your friends cleaning up the spilled beer and vomit.

Now that you know these tips, abuse them. Make sure that you are always sincere with your roommates, however.You want to maintain their trust as long as possible so you can use these tips.
