If you are or having recently been planning a move you are already aware of what a crazy time it can be! There is so much to get done that it can seem like there are not enough hours in the day to get it all done. Add to that worries about your things being lost or broken and you have the perfect recipe for a pretty stressful event! No worries though, it is actually easier than you think to have a stress free move. So easy in fact that you might just find that your move become bearable or (gasp) even fun. The key to reaching this state of mind is planning. Like many other things a move is as chaotic as you let it become. If you strike early and plan out your move, you eliminate a huge source of stress right off the bat. This can most easily be accomplished by using some sort of checklist to itemize your move. This checklist can be homemade but if you really want to take your move to the next level, find a moving out checklist online and use that. Do not worry about adding another expense to your move, these lists are usually free.

Another way to ease your mind about your move is to only work with professional companies. Trying to save money with cut rate movers might seem like a tempting option but the reality is that they will likely end up costing you more in headaches and frustration. Learning when and where to spend the extra money is an important skill in life and a move is definitely one of the places to spend a bit more. All in all a move is no more inherently stressful than any other big event. Plan for it and don’t let it take you by surprise and a move can be relaxing and easy to handle.
