Moving can be an exciting time. It’s the perfect opportunity to start fresh and make a big change in your life. The moving process is a big undertaking, however, and it can be even more overwhelming when it involves relocating to a new state. There are a lot of things to keep in mind and to plan in preparation for your move. Not only do you need to figure out what and how to pack or donate and how to pay for the moving van, but you will also need to know how to update your car registration and driver’s license, properly file taxes, and change your address.
