Call moving companies for a free estimate. Cost will vary depending on distance, weight and optional services.
Look through your house to determine items to be discarded or donated to charity. Have a garage sale!
Inform schools of transfer. Make arrangements for enrollment/registration in new schools if necessary.
Most homeowner's policies do not provide adequate coverage for moving. Check with your agent and consider purchasing additional coverage from a moving company.
Begin collecting boxes with covers if you plan to pack your belongings. You can purchase packing materials through moving companies or contact local grocery stores for extra boxes. Be sure to stock up on packing tape!
Begin consuming perishable and frozen food items to minimize waste.
