Moving into your dream house can be anything but a dream. You have the hectic task of packing everything, loading your furniture into the moving van, and finally unpacking everything. To keep your sanity during this process, it's important to avoid doing everything all at once.

• Four weeks before the move: Start condensing your workload. Take note of what's in the garage, closets, bedrooms and other areas and decide what you want to keep, throw out or give away.. This way, you'll save valuable boxes and free up precious space during the move. Also, notify your local post office. You'll need to fill out a change-of-address form so your mail wont pile up at your old residence. Be sure to contact utility companies about a disconnection date on your old home, as well as the connection date for your new home.
• Three to two weeks before the move: Start packing and labeling boxes. Make sure you don't pack anything you might need in the meantime, or you'll find yourself unpacking and then repacking the same things.
• One week before the move: Cancel any newspaper subscriptions. If you're hiring a professional moving company, verify the date of your move with them just to be safe.
