29 Days to a Smooth Move: 2nd Edition

Great help with complete and useful guidelines for a stressfree (or almost) move. Even though I had less than 29 days to prepare, it covered everything I needed to know. Be sure to heed the advice of the authors and don't try and take shortcuts with recommended items. Two thumbs up!

good book..lots of useful information, reads good...funny... laid out to be used like a "moving journal"

Moving is so incredibly overwhelming! I truly wish I'd had this fabulous resource when I moved from Chicago to Las Vegas in 1999. No matter how large or small your move, moving is a pain. This book is on my "must buy" list for friends and family members planning a move. The book is well organized and full of fabulous tips and tricks to take some of the pain out of the moving process. And it's funny, too. It's obvious these womenknow what they're talking about when it comes to moving. They are experts.

I think that this book is unique in getting someone more organized for a move, how to pack, how to prepare budget for move, etc. It is in workbook style, thus has many checklists and charts to fill in. The only part that you would have to do more research on own is to know which moving company to choose, and to decide between professional mover vs. finding company that allows you to pack but they will drive the stuff for you vs. doing it completely on own and renting truck yourself. Most of the info that they provide may be found on websites but nicely organized and fun to read in ring-bound version. Also would have been helpful if had chapter dividers.

It was great to come across moving advice just at the right time in my life. I'm a single gal packing it up to try something new. After reading 29 Days to a Smooth Move and realizing I wouldn't have to sacrifice any limbs as collateral to pay for moving expenses, my plans were set in motion. I followed the book's recommendations and saved a considerable amount of money on my move. And the chapters on saying goodbye- priceless. The suggestions made me think about how i was going to go through with it. The helpful hints made the transition a whole lot easier than i thought it would be. So, if you're planning a move, local or long distance, but might be anxious about all that goes along with the idea, this is a must read!
