Moving is a lot of work. You have to sort, purge, pack, coordinate, and still somehow keep your regular life running. These five apps will not do the move for you, but each one handles a specific piece of the puzzle so you can spend your energy where it counts.
5 Moving Apps to Help You Organize: From Help with Packing to Moving Day
1) Unpakt
If you want to compare movers without filling out a separate form on every website, Unpakt pulls quotes together in one place. Enter your move details and see prices from movers available across 37 states. You can book and pay through the app as well. It cuts down the back-and-forth of calling around for quotes, which is a real time drain when you are already juggling everything else a move requires.
2) Nextdoor
The Nextdoor app connects you with over 145,000 neighborhoods. Before you even finish unpacking, you can find a babysitter, learn about local events, and start getting a feel for the people around you. If knowing your neighbors matters to you, this is a practical way to start that before moving day is even a memory.
4) Postmates
One of the harder parts of landing in a new place is not knowing where anything is yet. You do not know the good grocery store, the reliable pharmacy, or the pizza place worth ordering from. The Postmates app delivers what you need to your door so you are not leaving a half-unpacked apartment to wander around an unfamiliar area. When you need a break from the boxes, open Postmates and get food brought to you.
5) Wunderlist
Wunderlist is a list and task manager that works well for moves because you can share your lists with the people helping you. Create checklists, set deadlines, schedule reminders, and assign specific tasks to specific people. When four family members are all trying to help and nobody is sure who is handling what, a shared list keeps things from falling through the cracks.
None of these apps will carry a single box, but each one takes a real piece of the organizational load off your plate. If you have a favorite moving app we did not mention, share it in the comments.
