HOME MOVING TIPS
There are simple things you can do to make your move less stressful and less expensive. A good way to start is with a simple calendar beginning one or two months before the big day. Here is a sample timeline to help keep you on track:
One to Two Months Before Moving
- Walk through your current home and decide what you want to take, what you want to throw out, and what you want to donate to charity or sell.
- Arrange for important school, medical, financial, and legal records to be transferred.
- Book the movers: it is a good idea to obtain estimates from more than one company, not only to get the best price, but because likely not all of them will be available on the day you want to move.
- If you rent, give your landlord written notice and make arrangements for the return of any deposits.
- Inform home services such as newspaper delivery of your move. Now would be a good time to arrange for service at your new address.
- If you are moving far from your current home, you might want to consider transferring gym memberships and prescription records to a more local service.
- Change the address on your driver
