Moving Checklist: Before You Move In
|
|
There are a few things you're going to want to do before you start
moving to Houston:
-
Get the utilities turned on.Your rental property owner or apartment
manager should give you a list of the utilities you're responsible for in your
furnished apartment in Houston, plus contact information when you sign the
lease or agree to take the apartment. Very often you may have to pay a deposit
for some or all of the utilities, especially if you haven't had utilities in
your name before or have credit problems.
-
Get renters insurance.Check out our section called Renter's Insurance to help you understand the
advantages of insurance when you.re moving to Houston.
-
This will allow the post office to forward your mail. Pick up some change of
address postcards for friends, notify creditors of your new address and contact
your bank.
-
Do some simple decorating planning. Things will be easier on move-in day
if you have a pretty good idea where things are going. Plan your packing
accordingly with a moving checklist.
