Hire a Moving Company to pack, move and store your belongings so you can be worry free! For more tips and options, see Moving Companies in the Moving Menu
To be safe, book your rental truck a month ahead. See Truck Rentals under Moving Menu
Get enough boxes. Too much is better than too little.
If you have back problems at all, do not lift anything. Stick with the little things.
If you're having family or friends move you, reward them with a Mover's Treat, pizza lunch, sub sandwich dinner, etc.
