The point at which you’re ready to move into your new home, is a very important time for you and your family. However, there are some very important things that you need to ensure you do, before you actually make the big moving-in step. We’re going to show you some of the things that we’re talking about.
- You should connect your internet and make sure it’s working well, before you move into your house. That way, you won’t get frustrated, bored or inconvenienced by the lack of internet or the really crappy connection.
- Ensure that you disconnect the energy of the previous tenants and reconnect it in your own name. It isn’t hard to do and you want to make sure you do it before you get into the house and you get charged for the previous clients’ bill and they won’t get charged for yours.
- You have to know what you’re going to do with your kids and your pets on the busiest day of your life (the day that you move into your new home). Make a plan about where you’re going to have them stay, so that you can focus on just moving your things.
- Give all the important people in your life, your new contact information. Ensure that you relay your address change with the various businesses and institutions that you interact with.
- Organize a box of items that you are going to need to get stuff together in your house. You may need tools, cloths, tape and other things to assemble various items that you need in your home, so you should pack those all in a box and bring it with you when you’re going to move into your new home.
- Focus on organising your house and contents insurance. You want to ensure that you are covered throughout the move. Also make sure that your insurance policy ceases the day after you have moved one and your new one starts the day before you start your move.
- Get professionals to clean your home, after the previous owners move out or just before you move in.
- Get spare keys cut before you make your move into your new home. That way, if you lose your current keys or lock them in, you will have back-up keys there waiting.
- Makes sure and pack a “first-night box”, that holds the essentials to make your first overnight stay in your new home much more comfortable. It makes a big difference.
