The Moving List App has 9 categories (DIY (Do It Yourself), Friends & family, Goodbyes, Job Relocation, Movers, New Address, Packing, Transport, and Other) and over 90 list templates to help you organize your move. There’s even a fun, magic 8-ball type application called “The Packing Decider”, which shake to get an answer whether you should keep that from Niagra Falls Commemorative Plaque Aunt Millie or not (hopefully is says not, then you can blame it on the iPhone). Of course, if you’re fairly handy at performig hacks, you can use your iPhone to track where your moving van is, just like this guy. (Moving List App) Available on iTunes for $2.99
