We’re moving!
Since we sold out building back in December we knew that we’d be moving July 1st. (Which is considered moving day here, even though a lot of people do move year round) but I was stressing over actually finding a place that # 1: Is nice and clean and fits all of us, and that #2: Allows animals, and finally #3: is affordable.
The affordable factor was much harder to deal with since rents have gone up SO MUCH! We finally did find a place that we fell in love with, the rent is more than what we are paying now but we can make it work, and for what we are getting and the area it’s in, it’s actually not bad at all.
With moving comes other costs though. Like general moving costs! We are planning on renting a U Haul and bribing our friends to come and help us. We have never hired movers, but I know people that have and that has set them back hundreds! Then there’s the costs of paint, cleaning supplies, and all the other little things that come up.
Do any of you have any tips for us to save some money?

Congrats! I’ll be moving in July but I think I’m gonna hire movers. It’s a pain.
Good luck with your move! I would love to hire movers, but my mom moved last year and she paid $800!!! That’s a rent payment! Since the “moving day” where I live is July 1st they really bump up the rates, it’s ridiculous!
