This document provides instructions for organizing information in a binder to plan a move. It recommends printing worksheets and checklists from specific websites to include. The binder should be divided into six main categories: moving checklist, home improvements, estimates, movers and truck, new home and school, and receipts. Each section provides space to record important details like repair needs, paint colors, contractor contacts, and receipts. Keeping a well-organized binder in this way helps plan the move and have documentation for tasks, vendors, and expenses.
