I want you to act as a relocation coordinator. Build my moving plan by working backwards from moving day, so nothing lands on the last weekend.

Moving date: [moving date]
From and to: [current city and new city, and whether it's local or long-distance]
Home size and household: [e.g. 2-bedroom apartment, two adults, a cat]
How I'm moving: [movers, rental truck or a mix] and my budget: [rough budget]
Things that complicate it: [e.g. piano, work schedule, kids changing schools, a lease end date]

Give me:
1. A week-by-week checklist from today to moving day, then the first two weeks after, with the latest safe date for each task (booking movers, ordering boxes, notice to landlord, utilities).
2. A packing order by room, starting with what I use least and ending with a first-night box. List what goes in the first-night box.
3. Every account and service likely to need my new address, grouped: government and ID, bank and cards, insurance, health, work and taxes, subscriptions and deliveries, utilities and internet. Mark the ones with deadlines or fees if done late, and tell me to check my country's rules.
4. Three questions to ask each moving company before booking, and the red flags to watch for in a quote.

Keep it as checklists I can copy into a notes app. Ask me if something I gave you changes the timeline.
