I despise moving more than anything. I used to be in military and they made me live all over the world. I had to move more than twenty times during my career. Every time I moved I threw away more of my stuff in the spirit of becoming more a more streamlined and efficient house-mover. Now all of my worldly possessions will fit in two duffel bags. In the nomadic process I have also become quite profficient at washing and shaving in public restrooms, living out of a gym-bag, rotating the same clothes for days, and washing laundry in a bucket behing my hotel room, and finding the cheapest (if not free) meals where ever I go. Now, when I go on holiday or away for business, my packing consists of stuffing a few pairs of socks and underwear into my front-trouser pockets and a few sandwiches and pieces of dried meat in the rear. I bring a bottle of water that I refill in public fountains and I wrap an all-pourpose towel around my neck.
I have essentially become a hobo.
This deeply disturbs me.

have moved house too many times, just take everything a step at a time, and prepare well in advance. Take your time unpacking, spend weeks doing it.

Use a Removal company and save your sanity,let us do the worrying.....mm

Moving house isn't exactly good for your health you know. Every time I move (which isnt often these days) I start packing like months in advance and plan it all to the last detail. Not sure about moving companies, haven't tried them.

So.. moving home - don't do it.

Moving house sucks! Finding a house was bad enough for me. I've got triple the amount than I did when I first moved in. Luckily I borrowed chris's van. A week now til I move into new place where Ive got to P**s about unpacking it all again, terrific!

Moving is the most stressful thing I have ever done and I have vowed never to do it again...

Moving to a new house is a real nightmare, I know because I've done it several times myself. Just make sure you get all your mail redirected first!
