Moving Help

Timelines, movers, packing, and what to expect on moving day.

Start as early as eight weeks before your move date. Book movers six to eight weeks out — the best crews fill up fast, especially on weekends and at the end of the month. Use the time before that to sort, donate, and handle your change of address. Haven can give you a week-by-week checklist once you set your move date.

Haven helps you organize the full move — not just the truck. That includes finding movers, coordinating utilities and internet setup at the new place, working through your change of address, and flagging anything that needs to happen before closing. You get one list, one timeline, and one place to track it all.

Yes. Haven connects you with vetted local movers and helps you compare options based on your move date, distance, and what you're moving. We handle the back-and-forth so you're not calling five companies to get five different quotes. You make the final call — we just make the process easier.

Start with USPS mail forwarding, then work through your bank, employer, insurance, subscriptions, and government accounts (DMV, voter registration, IRS). It's a longer list than most people expect. Haven provides a full change of address checklist and can help you track what's been updated and what's still pending.

Yes — you or a trusted representative should be there at both ends of the move. You'll need to do a walkthrough at your old place, confirm items are loaded correctly, and be at the new home to direct the crew and inspect for damage on arrival. Haven's moving day guide walks you through exactly what to do.

Update your date in Haven and we'll flag what needs to change downstream — movers, utility transfer dates, and any scheduled appointments. Movers often charge a rescheduling fee depending on notice, so the sooner you know, the better. Haven keeps everything connected so one change doesn't cause you to miss something else.
