Hi Michi!
Where is your bf moving to? There have been so many great suggestions here! I just moved so here is what I think is essential for the first few days. Many of these have already been said so sorry!

*toilet paper (as someone already said, you do need to wipe your azz!)
*paper towels (for cleaning and hand wiping)
*hand vac (for vacuuming out drawers, etc.)
*clorox wipes
*lysol
*rubber gloves for cleaning
*bathroom cleaner (depending on where he moves, you might want to get the industrial strength stuff!)
*windex (I like the multi-purpose stuff)
*upright vacuum (if he has carpets), otherwise for hardwood floors, a stick vac works just fine
*If he has hard floors, swiffer (my best friend!!!)
*garbage bags (both kitchen size as well as the black ones)
*paper cups, plates and plastic silverware (at least for day 1 until the real stuff is purchased or unpacked)
*garbage cans
*broom, mop, bucket and dustpan
*shower, hand, body towels, wash cloths
*bathroom mat (and accessories like shower curtain, toothbrush holder, soap dish, cup, garbage)
*bedroom furniture and curtains
*laundry detergent and bouce
*dishwashing soap and sponges
*shelf liners for the kitchen (not the sticky stuff - that attracts roaches. He can get the kind that is more like a rug liner so there is some cushion betweek the glasses, etc and the shelf itself)
*if he's jewish, a mezuzzah (you should get him that as a gift Chat Icon Chat Icon

And most importantly, a pic of his beautiful gf!

No problem! I'm a NJ girl now too so hopefully we'll see more of each other Chat Icon
There is a great Judaica shop in Englewood, NJ. That is the next town over from Fort Lee. It is located right off of Palisade Avenue. I'll try to find out the name for you.
