The moving process can be a burden from the moment you think about relocating to the moment that you're finally settled into your new home and workplace. Not only do you have to think about the facts of address and work transfer, but also of the people you are leaving and will be meeting and the kind of environment you will be moving into. Here are some ideas to lighten your load.
Choose your location well. Make sure that you're moving to a neighbourhood that you'll like living in. Do you want to live in a city pad? Maybe you prefer a house in the suburbs, or a country home. What kind of neighbours would you like to have? Will you have any security concerns (crime rate, etc.)? Are there any good schools nearby? What about hospitals, or malls? How accessible is it by public transportation? It will be best to settle these things before the actual move, so that you'll have less to deal with while you're readjusting to your new home.
Set a budget. How much are you willing to spend on your move? Can you hire professionals, or would you prefer to do the job yourself? Explore the various offers of moving companies and the schedules that they can offer you
