Moving is a complex process to go through, especially if moving long distances. This is why people are ready to do whatever it takes to make the whole process a lot easier. And as one of the hardest tasks that moving requires is packing, there are plenty of ways to make packing easier. One of the best ways to do so is to hire professional packing services from a moving company. By doing so, you are making sure that you don’t have to do a lot of things regarding the relocation such as getting the packing supplies and organizing the packing process. This means having more time to focus on other things such as spending time with your family. The only thing you will have to do regarding the packing process would be decluttering if you decide to hire packing services. But there are other ways that are free to make packing easier. So, if you want to pack faster and smarter, here are a couple of useful apps to have on your smartphone when packing for relocation.

Moved

The first app we believe you need in order to pack faster and smarter is moved. This app works as a concierge which you would otherwise have to pay a lot of money for. A concierge is a person that plans the relocation professionally so you don’t have to. And this is exactly what this app can help you with. It isn’t only useful for the moving process but for the packing process as well. Here is where you can order packing supplies as well as read some very useful packing tips. The best thing about ‘Moved’ is that it’s free to download and use. The only thing you have to pay for is within the app itself and it is when you hire a service or order something.

Sortly

The second best app to download in order to pack faster and smarter is ‘Sortly’. This is one of the best apps out there when it comes to packing assistance. It is an app that lets you create a list of your belongings along with photos of the items that you packed. This is very helpful if moving long distances and having moving insurance. If anything gets damaged along the way you will be able to file a damaged item claim because you will have evidence of what the item looked like before. You can create a visual inventory and sort it by rooms, category, size, color, and others.

It is a free app but if you decide to get in-app purchases you will also be able to create QR labels for your boxes. And we believe that this is very useful to have. You can also use this app to create the ultimate moving checklist.
