This happened to me during my last two moves. I live alone and move alone and find it very difficult to get motivated.
Then, of course, everything gets snowballed towards the end and I hate that.
Why I am presently frozen is someone in my apartment complex stole all my moving boxes. I had them stored in a storage area...then gave the storage area up. I had them in the back of my pick-up truck and was going to store them in my apartment...but left them overnight. In the morning they were gone! I was seething. I had used these same boxes for three moves.
It seems simple...go out and replace them. It's just a hang-up that I get frozen. I am also peeved I have to pay for new boxes. My other collection was salvaged from many places that are not open because of Covid19.
Moving requires thousands of decisions...small and big. I think it is simply that the brain gets fatigued and "turns off." I remember towards the end of the last move I was watching Harry Potter movies and drinking beer!  Thank goodness I no longer drink or I might be knocking some beers back right now!
I wish I was where you are...so close to departure. BEST OF LUCK. YOU ARE ALMOST THERE. 
I keep telling myself, "It doesn't have to get done perfectly. It just has to get done."
Hope you enjoy life in your new home.

No I'm not moving far. I'm actually going to have to move twice this year. Long story. But I'm doing it.
I saw your thread about moving across the country. I think that sounds so exciting. Good luck to you too.
One step at a time.
