Top 5 Moving House Apps

Our Moving House Apps Recommendations

Moving home can be a stressful time for even the most organised person, which is why it’d be wise to take all the help you can get when your own moving day comes around. This month, we’ll be listing the top 5 apps out there that make moving home less of a nightmare and more of a dream.

Home Move Pro

One of the best apps out there for helping you to organise and manage your move, Home Move Pro comes brimming with templates and packing suggestions to take the stress out of moving home. These templates are customisable, meaning you can alter them to suit your requirements.

Creating lists for each room works to organise where you’ve packed all of your possessions, making it easier to unpack when you get to your new residence. Moreover, you’ll be able to store everyone’s contact details, from the estate agent to the bank, the removals company to your father-in-law, all in one handy app. What are you waiting for? Download Home Move Pro today.

Change of Address

When you move places, one of the most important things you need to do is to notify your work, your bank, the council and any other relevant body of your change of address. Though this app is all about bureaucracy (Yawn!), it’s an essential consideration on your moving list.

Change of Address allows you to list all of the bodies you’ll need to notify, making it easier and more bearable to do so. Just don’t forget to change address for your mobile phone contract or Clubcard in the process!

Mortgage Calculator

To make sure the headache looking for a mortgage gives you isn’t too bad, you’ll need the Mortgage Calculator. The app does exactly what it says on the tin, letting you find out how much a given house would cost you a month were you to take a mortgage out on it. Obviously this will need to be used well-before your moving date, but you have to find your dream home before you can move into it!

AroundMe

Settling into your new home and environment can be a little jarring, especially if you’re moving to a new town, county, or even country. That’s where AroundMe comes in. AroundMe is designed to help you settle in by showing you where all your local amenities are, including the locations of the local:

• Banks;
• Pubs;
• Supermarkets;
• Taxi ranks;
• Petrol stations;
• Bus stops;
• Hospitals and pharmacies;
• And schools, to name but a few.

The app is powered by Google and provides exact distances and directions as well as previous user ratings. With this app, you’ll feel comfortable in your new environment in no time at all.

Pinterest

As an online scrapbook, Pinterest is excellent for cataloging all your ideas for moving home and decorating your new abode. The social media platform is also a great way to find inspiration from others in the forum. Furthermore, you can test out your ideas by sharing them either privately with friends and family or publicly, enabling you to float ideas and see which ones sink and which ones swim. Through doing so, your move will be more streamlined and therefore more relaxed, as fewer decisions equals less stress.
