House Checklist
Where
do you start? Packing up your entire house contents can seem
like a daunting task, but if you start early and pack a little
at a time you will soon have the job done. We can supply you
with packing materials or if required we can provide a packing
service
|
On
your marks:
•
Let us know if you require boxes, tape or packing containers,
and arrange when it is convenient for these to be delivered.
• Start packing things that you will not need before
moving i.e. dinner service, ornaments, photo albums etc.
• Your attic is also a good place to begin, you can
also clear out anything not going to your new house.
Get
set:
In the
run up to your move here are a few things to remember.
• Inform utility companies and banks & building
societies about moving, also inform the postal office of
your change of address if redirection is required.
• Give your phone company notice of your intended
date for moving.
• Arrange gas meter reading, and the disconnection
/ reconnection of appliances.
• Confirm with your solicitor when you can collect
your keys of your new home this will hopefully avoid waiting
time.
• Inform us if access or parking will be a problem
at either property.
• Inform us of any furniture that may need dismantled.
• Inform us if there is a piano so specialist equipment
can be brought on the day.
Go!
On the
day of your move you can leave all the hard work to us.
Here are just a few things to remember.
• Pack an overnight bag with a change of clothes,
toiletries etc also anything you may need on the arrival
to your new home toilet roll, kettle etc
• Ensure arrangements have been made for children
and pets to be cared for during the move. B-Line can lend
you cat carriers if required.
• If children have a special toy or night light that
they sleep with make sure it is packed separately.
•
Take electric meter readings, a copy and keep one for yourself.
• If no one is moving in ensure water and power supplies
are switched off.
