Organizational moving binder is the key to keeping sane. I made a two moving binders one for me and one for a good friend. We both used them (hey we're type A what can I say). I got the idea of a moving binder from a different blog so I'll share it with you.

We used our binder to keep all receipts (gas, trailer rental, hotel, food, weigh tickets). It was fabulous. It also keep all the paper work the movers gave us. Two vehicles on the road, with two drivers, two crazy dogs. It definitely keep us sane and organized.
