Over the past month, my husband and I have been going through the dreaded house move experience. We’d only gone through a couple of moves before in our entire lives, but this one was bound to be the toughest. 40+ large boxes, 70-90 minutes apart by train, no personal car to help with the back-and-forths while the new place is getting ready, a couple of furniture pieces — really, it was all a recipe for frustration. But we turned to five very handy Android apps to help us through it all.

Since we live in France, I used some local services, but I will mention the US equivalent in each case. These should technically be available in many countries, too, but under different names. I suggest asking Gemini or ChatGPT, “What’s the equivalent to X in my country?” to get the name of the service if you don’t know what it is.
