Waiting until the last minute to pack and find a moving company is a recipe for disaster. That’s why it’s important that you and your family are realistic about what you can accomplish in a given amount of time.

Packing at the eleventh hour is only going to heighten stress, reduce preparedness, and increase the likelihood of damaged goods. Therefore, if you know that a relocation is in your cards, it’s critical that you layout a realistic timeline before your move.
