Moving out soon? We feel for you. We understand the stress of transitioning from one home to another. It's more than just putting your stuff into one box and then moving it to another location to unpack... Okay maybe it is, but it's a lot more complicated than that! According to
Movers N More, 10% of new movers experience hair loss, 14% develop short term memory loss, and 19% exhibit anxiety symptoms. I don't know about you, but I like my hair and would like to keep every follicle I have left. Here are a few apps that should prevent moving stress.
Sortly
Moving can often be a hectic time period; mislabeling and misplacement is a common practice. This is where
Sortly, the self-proclaimed "ultimate organizing app" enters. Sortly helps you organize all your belongings and boxes via QR codes. Place stickers onto your boxes to help organize what boxes you have and their individual contents. Then use the checklist to make sure that you have is accounted for.
Handy
More likely than not, if you're moving, either your old or new home is going to need some repairs. If you're under some heavy time constraints and need repairs done as quickly as possible,
Handy may be the solution you need. With just a few swift taps on Handy, you can hire a handyman to come to your home to help you unpack, organize, repair, and an assortment of other chores. With a by-appointment of $60 an hour charge, you could save yourself some serious moving time with this all too convenient app.
Dolly
Unfortunately, none of us are superheros with super strength; this includes that guy who always wears the Superman shirt at the gym. Therefore, lifting and transporting heavy items can become a real struggle. This is where
Dolly comes in. Users can tell Dolly what they need moved, where it's going, pick a time, and someone will be there to help with all the heavy lifting. Relying on an in-house built algorithm to give real time price quotes based on the uniqueness of the move, Dolly is sure to be the perfect spotter.
LetGo
Moving homes has a strong correlation with moving on. We don't mean the relationship kind of moving on, but the "Do I really need this hole and stain ridden couch that I've had since college?" kind of moving on. Instead of donating it to your local landfill, why not make some money off of it?
LetGo helps you buy and sell those unnecessary items you won't be taking with you. It helps you accumulate a little more cash while increasing the amount of free space in your new home. Simply post a picture of the item, and LetGo will do the rest. Who knows? Maybe some undergraduate will want that couch.
