- Hire movers for the big stuff if you can, to save money move the boxes, clothing, and kitchen items yourself.
- Try to give yourself time so that you have the luxury of moving in stages.
- Start packing early.
- Pack one room at a time and label each box.
- Move small stuff yourself and unpack each box as you bring it in.
- Everytime you visit your new home bring some things with you, never waste a trip.
- Use this as an opportunity to get rid of unwanted or unused items.
- Schedule a pick-up with a local charity for the day following move to get any of those purged items (or have a yard sale to raise some extra money).
- Pack on overnight bag with the items you'll need immediately.
- Arrange for childcare on the day of the move.
- Take frequent breaks, eat, and drink lots of fluids (especially on a hot day).
