My sister moved houses and while they hired movers, a lot of stuff were still done by us. The hardest ones were carrying their wine and whiskey bottles. They like to drink, and they splurge on these, so when it was time to move in to the new house, we were the ones hauling all those heavy boxes full of bottles. If you're going to move, don't skimp on the movers, and maybe even pay them extra to do the fragile ones. Your back will thank you for it.
I've moved several times in the past and have the process sorted out so there's no worries there.
