It is a great idea to make a list to be sure that you do not miss important details. Here are some things to be sure that you add to help make your new adventure go smoothly.
Call the utility companies to let them know the dates of your move to be sure that your new home has utilities and you won’t be billed for your current home’s utilities after the move date. Make a checklist of your utilities which usually include gas, electricity, water, trash collection, cable, internet, and phone.
Start purging your belongings. Moving is a great way to get rid of anything you no longer need, never use, don’t want or are unable to move due to rules or the moving company or are crossing a border.
Make a list of family and friends, professionals, subscriptions, creditors, insurance companies (home, life, vehicle, renters) etc. to inform them that you are moving and provide your new address.
