Smart Moving Notebook

Use your Smart Moving Notebook to make all kinds of notes about your move as they occur to you. The notebook also can be used as a daily reminder of errands that need to be handled and for lists of people to contact to stop services at your old house and start them at the new house. You can use the notebook to record addresses of people to notify of your move. Add in lists of resources about your new home town, state, or neighborhood. The Smart Moving Notebook will become an invaluable helper in your move.

You can organize your Smart Moving Notebook in many ways. Here are a few suggestions:

By room (living room, dining room, bedroom)
By type of task (packing, cleaning, buying, selling)
By date (page per day, week, month)
By resource (mover, rental agent, employer)
By person (named, with cross-references to tasks or dates)
