Preparing a moving checklist is another way to guarantee convenience and efficiency. Sometimes creating a list is a great way to act as a written reminder as to what you made need before, during, or even after a move. Things you might find on these types of lists include certain tasks such as hiring movers or renting moving trucks, buying packing supplies, turning on utilities, making key copies if needed, having your new home cleaned, and things that may need to be purchased for the new home, as well as tasks for the house you’re moving from such as cleaning, or making new keys for the next owner. Having a moving checklist not only makes you more prepared but also is yet another way to alleviate as much stress of the moving process as possible.
