Moving Checklist

PLAN YOUR NEW HOME

Do you have a huge TV, a kitchen of your dreams or a baby room? Do you plan to work or to refurbish yourself in the new place? You need to plan first because it affects your move dates, the furniture you need to buy or sell, the professionals you need to employ, and logistics. Try to make all refurbishments and paintings before moving in if possible; otherwise, your boxes will have to last a few days or weeks. Once the routine is over, moving begins.

  • Sort and purge. Go through every room of your house and decide what you’d like to keep and what you can get rid of. Think about whether any items will require special packing or extra insurance coverage.
  • Research. Start investigating moving company options. Do not rely on a quote over the phone; request an on-site estimate. Get an estimate in writing from each company.
  • Create a moving binder. Use this binder to keep track of everything — all your estimates, your receipts, and an inventory of all the items you’re moving.
  • Organize school records. Go to your children’s school and arrange for their records to be transferred to their new school district.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Exploring the neighborhood

Moving is also a great way to discover the ins and outs of a new neighborhood. Go out and see for yourself now that you actually live there. If you enjoy going out for dinner, make sure you try a few restaurants before you start sticking to that same one that you like — you miss everything you don’t try! One last thing: Introduce yourself to the neighbors. Go now!
