Oof. This was me last time I had to move. Fortunately a nearby commercial complex had a unit open when I was 2 weeks away from disaster

Commercial rentals suck way more than renting from an individual homeowner but at least they're more available...

    I moved halfway across the country(NJ to TX) 10 years ago, my move went ok but another co-worker was supposed to move about 3 months later. As he was packing the truck he heard on the news there were tornados near the new place and figured let me just check..

    He called up his new apartment complex to confirm everything was OK... "we'll call you back" an hour later he got a phone call "sorry your apartment no longer exists"

    He had 5 days to finish packing, drive 29 hours, find a new apartment, do all the paperwork, unpack, return the moving truck, and come to work at 6am the 6th day. I don't know how he did it but he did.

    No matter how bad it is, it could always be worse.

    They probably would have except it was the week between Christmas and new years so he didn't know who he could contact. In fact when everyone came to the office and heard he was offered a few extra days and he basically responded with... "for what? It's already done"
