No matter how well you plan your move; there will always be last minute things to do. To minimize this list, make a plan of what needs to be done to close off your life in your old home, and a corresponding list of what needs to be done to have the same in place in your new one. This will involve everything from arranging for meter readings at both ends from utility companies, changing or moving your telephone number, informing your bank of the date when you will move, as well as any insurance companies you may deal with. You will need to think about registering with a doctor and a dentist, plus a veterinarian if you have pets. Allow yourself time to do research and ask around for recommendations rather than choosing one when an emergency arrives!

Packing is a process and will take quite a while to do. Unless you’re moving out, say, tomorrow, then it wouldn’t be wise to pack shampoos, conditioners, bedspreads, etc. Pack the junk you honestly don’t use.
If there’s bathroom stuff in a box, write it on there for god’s sake. Unless you plan on unpacking everything in one day, it’s more helpful to know exactly where your most essential items are and unpack those first. If you’re too tired, at least you’ll have a toothbrush, shampoo, undies, and razor.
Your move should occur at a time that is convenient for you and your family. If you have children you will most likely want to move when the school term is up. Unfortunately this may fall in to the peak season and your costs will probably be higher. If your move can be rescheduled for a time when the van line agents will be less busy you may be able to reduce your moving costs.
