Moving is no picnic, whether from an apartment to a house or a one house to another, but here are a few suggestions that may make the job easier.
Make a list of the people and companies who will need change of address notices. Sit down and make as complete a list as possible. Don’t forget to add that investment company from whom you only receive quarterly reports, insurance companies, any magazine subscriptions, and the IRS.
If you are moving out of state don’t forget to sign the necessary forms for your health care providers to transfer your records. It is a good idea to get a copy of all prescribed drugs and even eyeglass and contact lens prescriptions.
Transfer the content of your safety deposit box to the new bank location in advance and transfer funds to the new account if you must move your account from on bank to another rather than just new branch. If you have direct deposit paycheck it will be important to setup the new bank account well before the move depending on your company’s requirements.
While numbering boxes and writing on the boxes the room to which they belong will help, assigning priority to boxes also helps. “Open me first” boxes should hold items you may need as soon as you reach the new location like bathroom items, light bulbs, bedding, night clothes, work clothes, or school clothes.
If you are changing cities, a good real estate professional can put you in touch with an agent in your new community who will help you get settled – even if you do not plan to buy a home right away.
