On Moving Day
- Confirm
that new utilities are in your name, and that old utilities
have been taken out of your name.
- If you are in a Property Service Agency home, finish
cleaning with the General
Property Cleaning Checklist.

- Double check closets, drawers, shelves, attic
and garage to be sure they are empty.
- Complete a checkout appointment with your property
manager. Turn in any keys, garage door openers, and other items
which belong to your landlord. If you are in a Property Service Agency
home, also be sure to turn in a new
address form
so that your security deposit can be forwarded to you.
- Carry travelers checks for quick, available
funds.
- Carry important documents, currency and jewelry
yourself, or use registered mail.
After Arriving At Your New Property Service Agency Home
- Complete a move-in
inspection form
and return it to your property manager.
- Renew your driver's license, auto registration
and tags.
- Shop around for new insurance policies, especially
auto coverage and renter's insurance. Visit our insurance partner,
Clem
Insurance Services, for a renter's and auto quote.
- Double check closets, drawers, shelves, attic
and garage to be sure they are empty.
- Revise your will and other legal papers to
avoid longer probate and higher legal fees.

and fire stations near your home.
