This can be useful when deciding how many boxes you need, how big a truck you should rent and how to estimate your moving costs. It may also come in handy for insurance purposes if items are lost or broken during the move.</li> <li><b>Find the right movers for the job. </b>Not into heavy lifting? Now’s the time to hire a company that fits your needs and budget. Get at least three estimates before you choose your mover, and make sure companies are licensed, insured and bonded in case something breaks. For extra peace of mind, you may want to consider moving insurance.<ul> <li>Terms to know: “Licensed” refers to a moving company’s business license. “Bonded” means the movers are obligated to carry out their contract. “Insured” refers to the company’s insurance policy, though levels of coverage can vary.</li> </ul> </li> <li><b>Order moving supplies.</b> For cross-country moves, it may be worth it to invest in durable boxes that can survive the trip. If you have a local move, used boxes can do just fine. Get them for free at many grocery stores, pharmacies and online sites such as Craigslist.</li> <li><b>Track your spending.</b> Moving costs can add up quickly, so it’s important to keep track of what you spend.</li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> </div> <div class="aem-wrap--listicle-item section"> <section class="listicle-item border--primary-color js-listicle-item false " data-action="listicleItem"> <a href="javascript:void(0);" class="listicle-item__anchor-link js-anchor-link" data-id="a-month-before-the-big-day" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"></a> <a class="listicle-item__title-wrapper js-listicle-expand-collapse t-track-accordion" data-item-title="A month before the big day" href="javascript:void(0);" tabindex="0" aria-expanded="true"> <div class="listicle-item__checkmark background--primary-color"> <i class="item__icon icon icon--action-checkmark"></i> </div> <div class="listicle-item__arrow"><span class="icon icon--action-collapse text--primary-color js-toggle-icon"></span></div> <h2 class="listicle-item__title text--primary-color"> A month before the big day </h2> </a> <div class="listicle-item__container js-listicle-container"> <div class="aem-wrap--text-latest section"> <div class="text-latest" data-cmp-name="text-latest"> <div class="cmp-text list-spacing-- list-height-- bullet-color-- acs-override"> <ul> <li><b>Prepare to forward your mail.</b> Pick a date to start forwarding your mail.
