The Best Apps to Help You Move

Moving can often be extremely stressful. Countless thought and effort must be given towards where you're moving, what you're taking, and what you're giving away. At the same time, you may feel the burden of leaving behind a beloved home. Luckily, in our technology-driven world, many free apps exist for your smartphone that will help make your next move a little easier. 

Here are the best apps to help you move:

1. Sortly 
This app allows users to make a virtual inventory of all of their items. You can organize your items into folders and multiple sub-folders, showcase items with videos or photos, add item descriptions and tags, or even create QR labels. All of this makes it simple to locate and keep track of all your stuff.  It gets better: a moving checklist is included as well. This allows you to keep a schedule of everything you need to get done, week by week, before the moving date. You'll definitely want this to make sure you don't forget anything. It's no wonder they label themselves as the "ultimate organizer app."

2. MagicPlan
Trying to figure out if your leather couch will fit in your new space? No need to take out a tape measure. MagicPlan measures rooms and draws floor plans using just pictures. You can add notes and objects to the pictures to get the estimate you need. Furthermore, you can purchase your plans and download them in formats like PDF, JPG, and CSV. This is a low-cost way to visualize your new space.

3. Letgo
If you are looking for a fast and simple way to get rid of your stuff, look no further. Letgo provides you with a outlet to quickly post items you don't need for your move and sell them locally. Post a picture of the item, a description, how much you want for it, and then sit back and wait for people to contact you. You can chat privately within the app with the people interested in your product to allow for smooth transactions.
