After
moving
After
moving, you can settle down in your new home and enjoy exploring your new
city of residence. You can find out about the best that the city has to
offer and have a good time with your family.
After
you move, find out about shopping areas near your new home and make
arrangements for essential services like telephone, cable television, and
newspaper delivery.
Join a
local library, register to vote, and transfer your insurance policies to
your new agent. Find a new doctor and dentist, and transfer your medical
records to them.
You need
to be present at your new home when your possessions are delivered. If it
is not possible for you to be present, make arrangements for a responsible
member of your family to be there to take delivery of your belongings.
You will
be informed about the expected time of arrival of the
moving truck.
However, it is your responsibility to keep in touch with the destination
agent of the moving company to find out about when the truck will be
arriving, in case you cannot be contacted. If you are not able to take
delivery during the free waiting period, you will have to ask for extra
waiting time.
Check to
see if any items are damaged or are missing, as the truck is unloaded.
Mention any missing or damaged items on the inventory sheet, and sign only
after everything has been unloaded.
Find out
about the payment terms of the moving company. You may be asked to pay in
cash at the time of delivery.
After
you move in, you can sleep on the floor and eat out until you have
unpacked your things. Dont try to unpack everything in a single day!
While
unpacking after a move, it is best to unpack the moving boxes that contain
items meant for the kitchen and bathroom first. Unpack the boxes that
contain things for the living room next, and then start with the bedrooms.
Collect
all bills and receipts relating to your move in a folder. You may be able
to claim a moving expenses
tax deduction
