Move with other people
Moving in with other people can be a very good way to make your move more viable. Having multiple people living in the same home will make it so that you can split the rent between multiple people. Not only will this make everything cheaper, it may also allow you to move into a bigger home that you wouldn't be able to afford by yourself. If the prospect of moving in with strangers seems scary, consider getting a group of friends together and all moving in together. It is important that when you do this, that you understand the people you are moving with well. You don't want to ruin a friendship because of different boundaries in the home.
Bring anything that your parents will allow you to take
One good way to furnish your new home is to take second hand items that your parents no longer want to the new home. The obvious ones would be things that only you used such as furniture in your room. Perhaps they have things that are sitting in storage that they want to get rid of but haven't gotten around to yet. Wherever you can, bringing things with you will mean that you will have less that you will need to buy once you have moved in. The money that you save can then be put toward your rent and your deposit.
Use a moving company
There are many cases where you will want to use a moving company when you are moving out of home for the first time. If you are using the above tip, chances are you will have a few pieces of furniture, perhaps more than you could fit in your vehicle. In some cases you may be able to get away with hiring a trailer, but that brings a few downsides to it. When you are moving you will have a lot of different things that you will need to think about and do and you don't want the transport of all of your belongings to be on that list. On top of that, lifting and moving a lot of furniture can be very physically taxing which is a problem at a time when you are so busy. Not only that, but in order to use a trailer, you will need to have a vehicle that is capable of towing a trailer. Distance is another thing to consider, if you are moving a large distance such as to a new city or state, you don't want to have to be transporting all of your personal belongings yourself and in some cases you can't.
