It's Flashback Friday— each week, U-Pack will revisit a blog topic that's been helpful and fun for our readers. Be sure to check the comments section of each post for even more valuable moving advice!

Since this post was originally introduced, we've received lots of suggestions for additions to the list of moving away songs (just check out the comments). If you could contribute to another list of songs about moving away, what tunes would you include?

Do you have a friend who's moving away?  You'll definitely need music for the going away party. We realize it can be a sad time, but you don't want every song to be a tearjerker.  Think about all the good times you've had together, and let your friend know that "Everything's Gonna be Alright." We think this playlist will help you do just that!

I know I wouldn’t mind to listen to these tunes while someone was helping me move. Tax payer was right about Willi Nelson. On the road again is one of the best songs!

Sorry guys I didn’t mean to post that comment so many times. I thought the comment didn’t go through. You can delete one if you’d like.

I think that music is such an important part of our lives. I love the song list for when your moving away. It can uplift the mood of moving even thought it is a hard thing sometimes. Salt lake city movers know just how hard it can be and that is where the beauty of music plays an important part. Thanks for the list.

What about "By the time I get to Phoenix" by Glenn Campbell. It's about a man that decides to leave his woman and describes what she'll be doing as he goes from Los Angeles, CA to Oklahoma.
