Moving Checklist

Three weeks before you move:

Continue packing.

If moving out of the area:

Arrange to open a bank account in your new area. Your current bank should be able to give a referral. Mark travel arrangements if you know nothing will delay your moving day. If selling your current home it is not wise to make reservations for hotels as sometimes escrow will be delayed a few days and you may not be able to get a refund.

Two weeks before you move:

Continue packing. Arrange to have your utilities turned off at your old home and turned on at your new home. You might request that they be turned off at your old home the day after you move out. I have seen people ask for them to be turned off at 5:00 p.m. on moving day and they were shut off at 6:00 a.m.

Two weeks before you move:

Continue to pack. Have your car serviced if you will be traveling a long distance.

One week before you move:

Get serious with packing. Drain gas and oil from power equipment such as lawn mowers, snow blowers, etc. Give away plants not being moved.

If moving out of the area:

Pick up dry cleaning, return library books, return any borrowed items, collect any items you have loaned to other people. Withdraw contents of safety deposit box at your bank and obtain cashiers check for moving company and purchase travelers checks.
