There is much that needs to be remembered while moving. Making a moving list is the best way to remember them all. Plus it is really fun to cross things off when they are done. Here are few things to add to your list. You don’t want to forget any of them so be sure to write them all down on your moving list right after reading this article then be sure to visit the website link at the bottom for more information and ideas.

Get Change of Address

It is surprisingly easy to forget to get your change of address. With all of the other things that you need to do, putting this step off seems to make since at the time, but you do not want your mail or bill or even junk mail in anyone else’s hands. You can pick up a card at the post office to fill out or you can even do it on the internet. Just be sure to use the official post office web site. You can have your mail sent to a trusted friend, family member, or even a post office box if you need to.

Utilities

You not only need to give your utility companies a change of address, but you will also need to cancel the ones connected to your old home and get connected to your new home. Sometimes these utilities can cut you off within 12 hour, but sometimes it takes quite a bit longer so call ahead to schedule it on the right day. I would recommend planning for the worst and having your utilities cut off a day or two after you plan on being completely out of the old place. You never know if something will go ring and you will still be there for a few more days.
