This interactive how-to book can help relieve the anxiety and stress of relocation while giving people who are moving great tips on how to organize, control, and enjoy the experience.

Moving. It’s a major life change. It doesn’t matter if it’s across town or across the country, the event of moving creates a mixed emotional mindset. From packing up all your possessions to renting and driving a moving truck to reconnecting your services, there are so many things to take care of in a move that the whole process can be daunting. Sprinkled with first-hand experiences and tips, A Happy Move is your owner’s guide for a seamless, practical, stress-free move.

This book provides plenty of recommendations and resources, with inside knowledge from U-Haul® and 1-800-PACK-RAT. The convenient spiral-bound book includes various lists that help you check off the items required before, during, and after a move to make the process easier, more cost-effective, and more fulfilling. It’s a tool for anyone considering a location change, whether it’s for work, school, military service, closeness to family and friends, or just a change of scenery. No matter the distance or final destination, if you’re a renter or homeowner, you, too, can follow this step-by-step process and experience A Happy Move.
