#A strenuous activity (one that involves exertion) is forbidden even if it doesn’t involve any Melacha.<ref>Shulchan Aruch O.C. 535:1 writes that one may not move homes on Chol HaMoed. Mishna Brurah 535:1 explains that it’s forbidden because of the tircha (exertion) involved. This is the explanation of Rashi (ktav yad 13a s.v. ein), Rabbenu Gershom, Ran, and one explanation of Ritva. Ritva has another explanation that it is because of uvda dchol. However, see Tosfot 12b who isn't sure if there is a prohibition of tircha without melacha in general. </ref> | #A strenuous activity (one that involves exertion) is forbidden even if it doesn’t involve any Melacha.<ref>Shulchan Aruch O.C. 535:1 writes that one may not move homes on Chol HaMoed.

#It is permitted to wash dishes after eating or dishes that he might use again on the moed.<ref>Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach (Shulchan Shlomo 530:2:2) permits washing dishes after eating. However, if a family is leaving the house on Chol Hamoed and going to be away for the second days, he isn't sure that it is permitted to clean the dishes, take out the garbage, and tidy up. </ref> | |||
