It’s getting closer to your moving date and there are some important duties that need to be done, whether you have begun packing or not. Make sure you handle items involving your employer, children, doctors, and more. See below for more details:
New Job or Staying at Current Job
- Make sure you have notified your current employer or plan a date when you will put in your notice. If you are staying with your current employer, then make sure you put in for time off during your move and notify them that your address will be changing.
Notifying Educational Institutions & Medical Providers
- For any children attending school, make sure you notify the school about your move and if necessary, register your child to a new school within the district of your new home. If you are changing doctors or healthcare providers, be sure to transfer all medical records for everyone in your family.
Preparing for Storage
- Depending on where you are moving and how many items you are moving, you may want to think about purchasing a storage unit near your new home so that you can store your belongings temporarily, or put items in storage while you work on areas of your new home.
Travel Planning
- How will you get there and where will you stay? Take into consideration whether you will have to book a flight, a hotel, schedule shipment of vehicles, etc.
