Don't Bother!1
This book is a lot of fluff and filler, and not one original thought to be had. Its contents could easily be condensed to one or two pages, but they use all kinds of "title pages" and other tricks to try and make it look like a substantial-size book. Don't waste your money or time.

Finally, an organized move!5
I am in the process of moving my residence and have purchased "The Essential Moving Planning Kit." Recently, I married and used the Wedding Planning Kit. I found that the wedding kit had kept me so organized that I couldn't wait to get starting with the moving kit. Moving one's residence can be emotionally difficult, especially when one isn't organized; but with an aid, such as the "The Essential Moving Planning Kit," my task has been definitely eased.

Useless1
This is only a book of excel spreadsheet like forms - all empty. There is not one that suggests what you should do. Even the page titled "checklist" is blank for you to fill out. I was looking for a guide gently nudging me along the process. A tablet, ruler and a pen or five minutes on excel can give you more organization than this book. Don't waste your money!
