MOVING CHECKLIST

Anchor 1
  • Provide the post office with your forwarding address two to four weeks ahead of the move.

  • Notify your credit card companies, magazine subscriptions and bank of your change of address.

  • Create a list of friends, relatives and business colleagues who need to be notified of your move.

  • Arrange to disconnect utilities and have them connected at your new home.

  • Cancel the newspaper or change the address so it will be delivered to your new home.

  • Check insurance coverage for the items you are moving. Usually movers only cover what they pack.

  • Clean out appliances and prepare them for moving (if applicable)

  • Note the weight of your goods if moving long distance. Moves are usually billed according to weight and you want to be careful of movers who use excessive padding to add weight.

  • Check with your condo (if applicable) about any restrictions on using the elevator or exits for moving.

  • Have a “first open” box with the things you will need most such as toilet paper, soap, trash bags, scissors, hammer, screwdriver, pencils, and paper, cups and plates, water, snacks and toothpaste.

Plus, if you are moving out of town, be sure to:

  • Get copies of medical and dental records, and prescriptions for your family and your pets.

  • Get copies of children’s school records for transfers.

  • Let a friend or relative know your route.

  • Empty your safe deposit box.

  • Put plants in boxes with holes for air circulation if you are moving in cold weather.
