I recently had 15 days to move from Sutherlin OR to Stayton OR. Trust me, it was not enough time.
Being 62 and having no help, it was a comedy of errors to be sure. So here are some things I learned that I want to share with you. This won't be a "encouraging or uplifting" essay. It will be brutally honest and meant to prevent you from making my mistakes. So...
So, all in all, I am in debt, tired, sore, stressed and will never EVER do this again. If I have to move, it will be planned down to the minute and penny. At least, that is the plan

Darn good article, PBP. I feel for you. I recently moved two households from Washington to So. California. I labeled everything carefully and the boxes that were destined for the new apartment were labeled with bright multi-colored tape and stuff to go into the storage unit, marked accordingly. Did that happen? Heck no! I spent the first three months with pants and no blouses except for ones that a wore a few days before the move. For two months, we dug through the storage unit which was packed to the rafters, for things that were needed.
Geeze it sure does!! I thought I was doing good getting 110 miles down the road! But did you tell the moving company how bad they did?
