Get virtual packing assistance

Unless you’re a steadfast minimalist, the most time-consuming part of moving is usually packing. If you’re unsure where to start, ask AI to provide tips on packing efficiently. For example, ask AI how to move your kitchen items, and it will provide recommendations on the best ways to pack everything based on size, fragility, and importance.

Manage Inventory

Use AI tools to manage your inventory to prevent losing or misplacing important items during your move. For example, tell AI about the most important items your packing, and ask it to create a plan for how to pack and track these items. In addition, some AI apps let you scan barcodes or take photos of your space to create a digital inventory. If you’re selling any furniture or large items, use apps to evaluate the worth of the items before you put them up for sale.

Find reliable movers

One of the biggest challenges of moving is finding reliable and trustworthy movers. Ask AI to analyze reviews, ratings, pricing, and other data to help you find the best (and most budget-friendly) movers in your area. Try downloading an AI-powered marketplace app to get connected with available movers and people offering similar services.

Compare estimate costs

Can’t decide which moving company to go with? Let AI compare estimated costs to narrow down your choices. Enter your moving details to generate a list of estimated costs from different movers and help find the cheapest, most effective option. Use this data as a starting point to make an informed decision without the hassle of contacting multiple companies individually.

Navigate your new neighborhood

Once you’re done moving, it’s time to get to know your new neighborhood. Learn about your new locale by asking AI for info on all the amenities that matter to you. For example, ask AI about local gyms and grocery stores, and get AI input to find your next favorite pit stop.

Moving doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Use AI moving apps and tools to limit some moving stress and focus more on enjoying your new home.
