Updater: All Your Moving Needs in One Place
Moving can be one of life’s most stressful events and entails much more than just the physical act of moving. It’s the little things that make your new home livable that can easily be overlooked in the craziness of a move – especially for a new homeowner who may not have experience with all the intricacies. That’s where Updater comes in. When we discovered Updater, we instantly fell in love and knew it was a valuable tool we wanted to offer to our clients to make their moves just a little bit easier & more organized.
What is Updater?
Updater is a web app that streamlines the moving process and keeps you organized along the way. It creates a check list for you, keeps all your moving to-dos in one place, and helps you check tasks off your list! From the beginning, it lists just about every step in the moving process and guides you through them including logistics of the move and even gives you quotes for moving and related services. It makes moving less stressful and more manageable by laying everything out for you!
