I've equated my W's moving out as a "slow bleed". She would come over darned near every night and take a few things. Grab some clothes, pack a few things in a box, take some kitchen utensils, etc. etc. I finally told her to pick a date and commit to being 100% moved out by that date. I told her anything she left after that I would assume was either mine or could be tossed out. I also asked her to sit down with me to discuss big ticket items so I wouldn't be "surprised" by anything she took. We had a meeting the next evening and negotiated what she would take, then set a date. I moved the larger items into the garage for her. She took that Friday off and got a couple of friends to help her move everything out. For me it was much less painful to just get it all over with than it was to have her coming over every couple of days to poke around and take a few things.
