- Comparing quotes in a clear table.
Packing and Logistics
- Room-by-room packing plans and labelling systems.
- Inventory lists for insurance.
- What to keep, sell, donate or recycle.
- Moving-day schedules and parking or access reminders.
- Essentials box checklists.
Admin
- Change-of-address lists: banks, insurers, doctors, schools, utilities and subscriptions.
- Drafting letters and emails to services.
