It's moving day. And as the saying goes, the early bird gets the worm. In the case of moving day, when you start early, you give yourself more time to move and it makes you feel less rushed. Of course everyone wants to get done as soon as they possibly can, but starting earlier rather than later gives you more time and you might not feel the time crunch as much.As if moving isn't stressful enough, there are several things you have to worry about on the big day. Perhaps you have children, maybe their too little to help move, and watching them in the midst of the chaos may be too much. Moving day is a good day to hire a sitter.
