Tips on Moving

The contract is finalized and you have about 4 weeks before you close and move.

Moving can be a daunting task. Especially if you've lived in the same place for a long time. Where do you start? Here is a plan to help you through the process. 
1st step: Get organized. 
  • Notify necessary people such as friends, family, a landlord, the post office, utility companies, or anyone who delivers to the house like the newspaper. 
  • Select a moving company and schedule your move.
2nd step: Take Inventory
  • Decide what you will move, throw away, donate or garage sale.
  • Clear out everything you don't intend to move with you.
3rd step: Start Packing
  • Start by packing things you won't need in the next couple of weeks such as out of season clothes, holiday fare, knick-knacks.
  • Label boxes with contents and room location.
4th step: Finish Packing
  •  Set aside valuables like jewelry, bills to be paid, receipts you may need, banking, and medication.
  • Clean your home as you would want a home cleaned for your move in.
5th step: Moving on
  • Make a final walk-through to make sure nothing has been overlooked in closets or cabinets.
  • Turn off the lights and lock the doors. You are done.
