While you can take a bit of time to start making plans and organizing about 90 days before the move, the closer you get to that big moving date, the more you need to prepare and get done. As you get closer to the 60 days before the move, it is time to look at some of the other tasks that you can use to help you when moving into your new apartment. Some of these include:
# Get a new place to live: You can either look for a new apartment to call home, or look at purchasing a home. You need to have a plan on where you will move when you are done with this unit.
# Book the moving company you want to use: You most likely will need to hire a moving company to help get all of your items from one location to another. These can be efficient, but book them ahead of time for the best rates.
# Let others know: Let your family and friends know that you will no longer be in the same area as before. You can give them your new address if you would like and ask some of them to help you get the move done.
# Pack some of the non-essentials: You do not want to wait until the last minute to go through and start packing the apartment. Taking the time to pack up some of the items you don’t want to get rid of but you don’t need right this moment can be a smart decision.
# Schedule the utilities: You will need to let the utility company know about the move. If you just plan to move from one location to another in the same town, see what they can do about transferring your services. If you plan to move to a different city, then you will need to disconnect the services at the one place and get them set up in the new apartment before you leave. Choose which of the utilities are the most important to you and don’t forget to turn some off to keep the bills low.
