Breaking a move into weekly decisions makes the process easier to control.
Six to eight weeks out
Choose the target date, start the mover search, reduce unwanted belongings, and list specialty items.
Three to five weeks out
Confirm services, begin packing low-use rooms, arrange utilities, collect records, and review building access.
The final two weeks
Confirm arrival windows, label essential boxes, protect important documents, and prepare a moving-day contact plan.
