The first step to excecuting a stress-free residential move is to plan ahead, and you can start by creating a moving checklist for the weeks leading up to your big day.
Two Months Before Moving Day
- Reach out to your family’s medical providers and schools to gather records and start the transition to new providers.
- Research Nashville residential movers and book your date! Apex Moving and Storage is a fully insured moving company in Nashville that will work with you to plan and organize all the services you need for your move.
One Month Before Moving Day
- Begin decluttering your home and pack items that you don’t regularly use.
- Call utility companies to set up services at your new home and disconnect existing services.
- Get insurance for your move. Check your homeowners’ insurance policy or purchase extra insurance protection through your residential moving company.
- Hold a garage sale to cut down on any unwanted household items.
- Stop into the Post Office and fill out a change of address form for all members of your family.
Two Weeks Before Moving Day
- It’s crunch time and now is when you really start packing!
- Donate any unwanted household items to charity or donation centers.
- Make arrangements for your children and pets for the day of the actual move.
One Week Before Moving Day
- Pack an overnight bag for family members to ease the transition for the first night in your new home. The last thing you will want to do after a long day of moving is search through boxes for pajamas and toothbrushes!
