What's a good plan to move to another state?

Question

Soon, I'm planning on moving to another state. I've never attempted to move anywhere by myself before so I'm really grappling with how to plan things out correctly... I know people say "you just move" but it's not that simple. Especially when I have my whole life set up here.

I won't need a job right away. When I do eventually need a job, it will only be a part time job. I will need my own apartment. I know the general location of where I want to live, but I'm flexible.

If you've moved from one state to another, how to did you go about it? How did you plan it out? What steps did you take?

Answer 1

look n buy/rent a house/flat before you move, so u have that in place already for when u move

then plan a way of moving  all your things to a new location by car n lorry or u haul which ever works best for you

Answer 2

I moved to another state two years ago (from california to utah).  I came up here first for a weekend and looked around and found a place. I then went back home and did all the packing, etc.  All the utilities and stuff can be set up over the phone so you can have everything ready before you arrive.  You'll do fine, good luck!

Answer 3

find the city that you want to live  and make research of how much is the rent or you can stay in the motels or hotels for a few day while you are looking for a place to live then look for a job if you have enough money to be relocated and a solid background and work experience you can move to live anywhere it all start with a good job.

Answer 4

i just recently moved to texas and i agree that moving isn't easy.

you have to have a budget and know what you'll need

  

   1) know what bills you would have and how much they would usually be (that's what got me when i moved)

   2) know how much gas prices are and other needed objects

   3) although you don't need a job yet still look into that

   4) make time to got to the place before you move and make sure its really the place you wanna move to

   5) talk to loved ones around because they will definitely help you in hard times
