Household Moving Tips from GPS - Your Residential Movers
*Have a garage sale. Get rid of everything you don't need before you move.

*If your company is moving you, read your relocation policy and familiarize yourself with the benefits provided.

*Get organized now. Don't wait until the last minute. Make lists of things you need to do and when.

*Make sure you are ready for the packers and movers. Don't forget to do all of the laundry, wash all of the dishes, pack your suitcases, disconnect computers, stereos and VCRs.  Place all the cords and remote controls in a safe place.

*Moving is an emotional time, especially for children. Make them part of the process. See Moving With Children. 
Make arrangements for pets during the move.

*Set aside those items that you will be taking with you on your trip and clearly mark them as DO NOT PACK.

*Make a list of everyone you need to notify about your move -- friends, professionals, creditors, subscriptions, etc.
Arrange to close your accounts in your local bank and open accounts in your new hometown.

*Contact insurance companies (auto, home owners or renters, medical and life) to arrange for coverage in your new hometown.

*Obtain a mail subscription to the local paper in your new community to familiarize yourself with your new hometown.
Contact schools, doctors, dentists, veterinarians, lawyers and accountants and obtain copies of your personal records.

*Obtain a change-of-address kit from the post office.  Designate one drawer of a dresser for sheets and towels so that you won't have to rummage through boxes for these essentials the first night in your new home.

*Once your refrigerator has been disconnected, thoroughly wash and dry the inside, then put a handful of fresh coffee, baking soda or charcoal in a sock or nylon stocking and place it inside to keep it smelling fresh and to avoid mildew.
