Is the moving house checklist free?

Yes. Copy it as a checklist or print it, with no sign-up. Using it inside ActivityTracker, with the dates filled in, needs an account.

How do the dates work?

Each task has a day counted from the start: Day 1, Day 3 and so on. In ActivityTracker you pick a start date or a finish date, and every task lands on a real day. Tasks that repeat keep repeating.

Can I change it after I add it?

Yes. It's your project: rename it, add tasks, delete the ones you don't need. Save your version with Save as template and it's there next time.

What if the project I need isn't here?

Describe it in a sentence and the AI in Tasks writes a template for it, with sections and dates you can change before you use it.

About this template

Moving has a few hard deadlines and a hundred small jobs around them. The ones that hurt are the ones remembered late: the notice period, the utilities, the address on your bank account.

Dates count forward from today, with move day eight weeks out. Packing goes room by room, least-used rooms first. In Singapore that includes the HDB or landlord handover and SP utilities; elsewhere, use your own.

Tips from the template

Apply it about eight weeks before you move, or shift the dates.
Label a box with its room and a number, and write the number on the packing task.
Keep the essentials box with you on the day.
