Long-distance moves often involve a little more work than a cross-town trip to a new home, but they don't have to be overwhelming. Use this advice to keep your long-distance move manageable.

First, start planning earlier than you would for a local move. Give yourself as much time as possible to work out details and address unexpected problems. Then, focus on saving money by reducing the amount of stuff your movers will load onto the truck. Look for opportunities to host yard sales, donate and give away those items.

Finally, figure out how you'll make your way to your new home and book any necessary travel and lodging. Need a dependable mover to help you make the trip? Get in touch with Atlas!
