Moving Checklist and Moving Planner, Google Sheets Excel Spreadsheet, Printable Moving Binder, Box Inventory, New Home Checklist

Moving checklist and moving planner spreadsheet: a 56-task timeline with due dates from your move date, moving budget, box inventory and a 14-page printable moving binder.

We built it because moving is a hundred small jobs that all land at once. Enter your move date and the starter checklist fills in a due date for every task, from 8 weeks before to after you move in. The Dashboard counts down the days, tells you which phase you are in, and flags anything overdue.

WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH IT

- Follow a 56-task timeline checklist, with due dates set from your move date
- See days to go, tasks done and overdue tasks on the Dashboard
- Track your moving budget, estimated vs actual
- Number and list every box by room, and mark Open first, Fragile, Packed and Unpacked
- Work through a starter list of 21 places that need your new address
- Schedule utilities to cancel at the old home and set up at the new one
- Compare up to 10 mover, truck or container quotes side by side
- Print a 14-page moving binder for the fridge or the clipboard
- Works in Excel or free in Google Sheets. No macros.

A note on safety: the checklist and guide remind you that gas and electrical work (disconnecting a gas dryer, relighting a pilot light, any wiring) is for your utility, a licensed electrician or another qualified pro.

HOW IT WORKS

AFTER YOU MOVE IN

When the boxes are unpacked, two of our other planners pick up where this one ends: our Home Maintenance Checklist and Tracker Spreadsheet (a seasonal maintenance schedule, repair log and appliance and warranty records) and our Renovation Planner Spreadsheet (a remodel budget tracker with payments, contractor quote comparison and 13 printable planning pages). Find both in our shop.
