BoxDay: Moving Checklist

BoxDay helps you plan a house move, track your boxes and record the condition of the home when you leave. Set your moving day and the jobs line up week by week. Number your boxes so you can find the kettle on the day. Then walk the rooms before you hand the keys back, and keep a dated record of how you left the place.

YOUR MOVE, WEEK BY WEEK
A moving checklist that counts down to the day. Choose a moving checklist for the UK, the US, Germany or a general move. Tasks cover giving notice, booking movers, packing, changing your address, meter readings and cleaning. Every task can be edited, moved to another week or deleted. Change your moving day and every open task moves with it. Anything whose week has passed waits under Catch up instead of disappearing.

CHANGE OF ADDRESS AND UTILITIES
The address changes and the meter and supplier jobs are also kept as two lists of their own, so the bank, the employer, the energy supplier and the internet are hard to forget.

NUMBERED BOXES YOU CAN SEARCH
Write a number on each box in marker. In BoxDay, give it a room, list what is inside, mark it fragile and add a photo. On the day, search "kettle" and see which box it is in. Print a sheet of box labels with big numbers to cut out and tape on.

RECORD THE CONDITION WHEN YOU MOVE OUT
Walk the rooms in order and photograph walls, floors and fittings. Each photo taken in the app carries the date and time your phone gives it; one chosen from your gallery is marked as added. Add notes for any marks that were already there. Photograph the final meter readings and note which keys you handed over and to whom. Build it all into one PDF to send to your landlord or letting agent.

THE SAME WALK AT THE NEW HOME
Do the move-in walk before you unpack. It is the record you will want when you leave that home too.

A MOVING BUDGET
Type each quote and what it really cost: the van, the packing, the cleaning. See your total moving costs, and keep track of the deposit until it is returned.

REMINDERS
A reminder on the first day of each week that still has tasks, and one on moving day morning, at the time you choose. Your phone's settings have to allow notifications.

NO ACCOUNT, NO CONTACT DETAILS
No account and no contact details. BoxDay does not pass you to movers or sell your details. Your moves, boxes, photos and readings are stored on your phone. The app uses Google services for ads, crash reporting and usage statistics. Export a backup file you can save or share, and restore it on another phone.

PLANS
The standard tier keeps one move with the full checklist, reminders, up to 15 boxes, and every room photo and meter reading. The Budget tab explains the budget and shows a banner ad. A single one-time unlock adds the move-out pack and move-in record PDFs, unlimited boxes, the label sheet, the budget and more than one move, and removes the ads. Everything you have recorded stays available without the unlock.

WHAT BOXDAY DOES NOT DO
It is not legal advice and it does not decide a deposit dispute. The pack is your own record, not a report by an independent inventory clerk, and it cannot prove a photo in law. It gives you a dated record to refer to if questions come up about the condition of the home. It does not book movers or compare quotes.

Works in English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Hindi, Arabic, Japanese, Korean and Chinese, on phones and tablets.
