Planning a move can take weeks, months, or even years. It’s something that most people don’t do very often, so it can be hard to know where to find eco-friendly packing materials, how to move your fish tank, or how to stage and decorate your home to get the highest price. Fortunately, there are some great moving resources that you can follow on Facebook and Twitter to help you on this journey. Here are some of our favorites.

Apartment List

If you’re moving to or if you live in an apartment, Apartment List is a great way to research the job market in the new city you’re relocating to, determine if you’re overpaying rent, and learn how to style your apartment to optimize the space. Many times moving resources focus on single family home owners, but this site is the perfect moving resource for the single professional or someone who loves to live in the big city.
