Removal Tips

Preparing

Regard moving as an opportunity to get rid of belongings you no longer need. Consider making ”donate” and “sell” piles in each room for things you could do without.
People have a tendency to keep outdated paperwork for a very long time. Realise that paper is very heavy . Do yourself a favour and get rid of any outdated documents prior to moving..
Make sure you have a generous supply of packaging tape, scissors, markers and labels.
Defrost your refrigerator in time for moving day.

Moving Out

Contact all relevant authorities to notify of your new address.
Return all library books, DVD's etc.
Arrange transfer of bank accounts, internet, telephone, gas, electricity connections.
Fill prescriptions needed the week before and after the move.
Service your car, drain the lawnmower.
Arrange final readings of gas and electricity meters, remove batteries.
Discontinue any delivery services, newspapers, automated payment plans and local memberships. Collect dry cleaning.
Leave a note or small gift for new residents.
Create a packet for new residents with owner's manuals and warranties for appliances.
