Before You Move

Visit Your New Community

Before You move, make sure you visit the new community. Being there in-person will give you a better feel for the area’s various neighborhoods and amenities.

Budget Accordingly

Figure out your overall relocation budget. Moving costs can add up depending on the amount of crew needed and the volume of your items.  Also, packaging and storage if necessary. If moving for a job, be sure to also check with your employer about whether or not they’ll be covering expenses.

Research Schools

Have school-age children? Start researching schools in your new community now.

Discuss the Move With Your Kids

Including your children in the conversation early on will help put them at ease during the transition. Ultimately, you want your children to be happy and safe!

Give Notice to Your Landlord

Renting? You’ll need to give your landlord a heads-up about the move. Many leases require tenants to give their landlords at least 60 days notice when moving out. With this in mind, be sure to double-check your lease agreement for specific details on how to break it before making any moving plans.

Moving hacks are all about making things just a bit easier on yourself. Follow the ones above, and you’ll see that maybe your move isn’t quite as bad as you expected it to be.
