It's good to start the packing a few weeks in advance. Usually people have a lot of things they don't use very often and by starting with these items you can spread the work over a longer period of time and in this way it will feel less overwhelming.

If you decide to let a moving company do the actual move, make sure you book them about a month before the date you want to move. A lot of the reputable moving companies are busy in the end of the month and on weekends and you don't want to risk being without a mover on the day of your move.
When you are packing you want to make sure that you use boxes that are suitable for their content, they should always be filled to their capacity. Both over and under packing may result in damaged goods. Also make sure that you use a good amount of padding around fragile items. To make the unpacking easier, label each box with its content and the room it belongs to.
If you want to save yourself a whole lot of work while arriving at your new home, make a plan before you move on where you want the furniture to be. Then let the moving company place it there straight away. Don't overwhelm yourself with all the unpacking that has to be done, take it bit by bit and let the relocating process take the time it takes.
The key to an easy move is simply to stay organized and well informed and to have a proper plan. In this way you save yourself from a lot of stress and your move can become a pretty convenient project.
