The Verge’s Guide to Moving

Moving is one of the most stressful events that can happen in life. It takes a lot of time and effort, it is costly, complicated, and there is simply a lot to do.

It’s not just about finding a place you can afford, signing a lease or getting a mortgage, and figuring out how to get your stuff from one place to another. There are a lot of other issues, too. You probably need to downsize and get rid of clutter before your move. You need to figure out which furniture to keep and which to keep, and get rid of all those venerable and old-fashioned laptops and phones that are rotting in the closet.

And then, once you’re in your fresh home, you have to set everything up again—including your technology. You have to reassemble your home office. You have to find a reliable (and hopefully not too costly) internet service provider and set up your wireless network and sharp home devices. It’s enough to make anyone cry.
