Moving
Atlas Van Lines Interchange - How are you going to move that aquarium? Those plants? And your computer equipment? This site will tell you that, and more. Check the Sites area for links to places chock-full of stuff, like the Employee Relocation Council. There's also a Kids' area with a few moving games.
Guide to a Good Move - This is a don't-miss site! You'll find lots of informative facts here, and the main reason we like this site is the thoughtful treatment it gives to taking care of kids' special needs before, during, and after a move. A psychologist offers answers to commonly asked questions about families on the move, including emotional support, school-related issues, and family teamwork. Also, a Carton Capers area gives step-by-step instructions on how to use empty Allied packing cartons to build a navy, an express train, and other exciting stuff (we're not sure kids really need directions on what to do with the huge empty boxes, but if they run out of ideas, try here!).
Homefair.com-Moving - Relocation information, including The Salary Calculator for cost-of-living comparisons; first-time homebuyer calculators to determine what you can afford; The Moving Calculator for the cost of interstate shipment of household goods.
Kidstuff-Relocation - The idea of going to a new home and school can be very hard, and it's only natural if you are concerned about leaving your friends. To keep in touch with them, plan to exchange letters and talk to your parents about being able to periodically call a friend or two on weekends. Be sure to talk to your parents about the way you feel about the move.
Monstermoving.com - Monstermoving.com is set to change the way people move by leveraging the power of the Internet to provide the relocation resources and goods needed to successfully manage all stages of the relocation process. Monstermoving.com offers access to a comprehensive array of moving-related services as well as a set of "cool relocation tools" designed to reduce the time, cost and stress associated with moving.
MoversNet - MoversNetTM is an expanded Internet version of the hardcopy Mover's GuideTM designed to offer increased help to consumers before, during and after they move to a new address.
RPS Relocation-Kids Issues - Every year, one out of five American families move. One of the most important issues to anyone with kids is their reaction to the news that they're moving, and their adjustment to the new home. Being informed is very important to children. One of the worst mistakes we can make as adults is to assume that kids don't care or won't understand the details. Keeping them "in the loop," consulting them about choices whenever possible, and including them in the family game plan will work wonders toward their adjustment.
