The move has learned four times in six years a lot. Essentially, changing the addresses is completely stressful, but also it is more complicated than just placing your belongings in the boxes and transferring them from point A to point B. This is especially true when it comes to transferring your money and your payments with you while trying to stay on a budget.
Technically, all you need to track your money while moving (and make sure that all your payments come with you) is a good spreading. But the process can be boring, so if you pay for a luxurious application, make a great information panel, or even buy a new notebook, some beautiful Washi tape will make it better for you. In my last step, I wrote all the things I had to do on the adhesive notes intended in colors and put them on one of the walls of my apartment. He imagined everything at a slightly stressful glance at the beginning, but helped me know what remains to do with the approaching day of the move. It was also very important that Nank notes from the wall, assemble them, and throw them away as soon as the task was completed.
It seems that reaching a plan to deal with the financial aspects of your movement before time, such as the advice of Abi boring, but dividing the process into three large phases (before, during, and after) will provide you with some headaches on the day of transition.
Stage 1: So, you are moving
The pre -move is the most challenging stage of the process, as it requires meditation, actually considering the bank’s data and credit cards, and spending a good time of talking (or waiting for speaking) to customer service. This seems terrible, and I know, but the good news is that if you made this effort, you will not have to wonder about the cost of your movement or why you pay two electrical projects every month.
Select what you will need
Take the stock of what you have (move is great time to get rid of things). Also, make a list of what you need to buy: boxes, tape, marks, etc. This will help you get a better idea of the total cost of this step, as well as the size of the truck you will need to transfer everything.
Based on where you are moving, your new place may already be some furniture, refrigerator, stove and even other devices such as a washing machine and dryer – or may not. If not, and those in your current place are working well while they are in good condition, ask the property owner if they are ready to sell it to you. The same applies if you have devices or furniture that you will not need in your new place – ask your owner if they are interested in buying it from you. You can raise a good deal for both of you.
Prepare a paper corridor for any services you contract for your movement: trucks, engine, storage units, etc. Follow all the agreements made on the phone using an email and use features such as filters and marks to keep all messages related to moving in one place. If you are using Gmail, use stars icons to keep up with everything that needs your urgent interest. All this sort will help you get absolute clarity about what you have already pushed and will help you find receipts later if you are offering preparations with the employer, for example.
The last time I moved, GEINI, the Gmail, used to summarize the long email interconnection indicators and cut them directly to important details. Warning, though – this is not an ideal feature, so although it may save you some time and energy, it may miss some important information from time to time. If you notice that something is completely incorrect, be sure to return to the thread and read carefully before you spend an hour on the phone screaming at someone.
For IRL shopping, request send receipts to your email, if possible. If not, you can enter it into a wide -rated schedule or a money tracking application, but this takes time you may not have. This is where your phone camera comes within reach During my last step, I took pictures of all my receipts before leaving the store and pushing my bag. Later, “receipts” just wrote on Google’s photos and found everything I need.

At this stage, you should also determine the services that will accompany you to your new place. Go through your bank data and credit cards, and note the companies that provide services to you and the amount you pay for them.
Make sure to return beyond your last statement, because some bills may come more than once a month. If you do not want to scroll down advertisement Nauseam, you can have an application to do it for you. Most budget applications or money management (and perhaps your banking application) can sort your frequent expenses to categories and tell you about the location of your payment amount at a glance.
Once you know what you pay for, you will need to determine the services you already need: gas, electricity, the Internet, etc. This is important, because some companies only serve some states or even certain areas of cities as they already have an infrastructure – this is very common with communications. Discover from the new real estate owner (or management company if you are moving to cooperative or apartment) or join the online biology groups.
(Note: You may not use Facebook anymore, and NextDoor Ick may give you, but in my experience, these are one of the most popular platforms to contact the neighborhood level. The older users like them better because they already know how to use it, and it is easier for younger people, if you do not want to log in to Facebook, always you can always get a medium network on the web or Stop working.
You will need to notify the current service providers. Most companies have online instructions on transferring or canceling their services.

Professional advice: Transfer may be a suitable time to re -negotiate your monthly payments, so don’t forget to ask about it if you already have on the phone.
Delay or redirect your packages
While you were looking at your data, you may have noticed those subscriptions in cat waste or strange desserts that reach the threshold of your house every few months. Check when the following request will be shipped and all unnecessary is delayed until you receive it in your new place. The packages will prevent it from losing it, and it will also avoid the need to pack things that you can send directly.
This is easy and inexpensive, and you can do this on the Internet. Just follow the instructions On UspsAnd your things must reach where you are. For $ 1.10 (symbolic fees used to check your address), you can redirect your mail for a year, you can do that It extends for up to 18 months. Usps recommends preparing the service at least two weeks before the startup starts, but if you want to get your awakening, you can do this three months ago.
Update your credit card features and automated pilot features
If you use automatic payments to cover a mortgage, rent or other frequent bills, move to the online dashboard for your credit cards, cancel them or update to reflect your movement. Make sure to do this with all your credit cards – even those that you can’t carry with you. If you cannot find the place of changing these settings, you can always contact your bank directly.
Stage 2: It is a day moving!
That was exhausted! But planning for the future will leave you with time, energy, and display of the mental frequency range to focus on filling and managing any unstable insult that will definitely originate in the day.
For this last minute it works for the hardware store, Get a plastic envelope for documents Put all your receipts there so that you can handle it later. Keep it in your car or in a bag you know you will be with you when you leave your place for the last time: your bag, your load bag or backpack.
Stage 3: I moved! It is over
Congratulations for your new place. Now, shortly after emptying your basics, do some time to update your address on all websites and platforms that you usually shop. Don’t forget to set your new site as the best default in your address book, so you cannot send packages to your old place. If you have a Netflix account (or any other type of subscription that monitors your site to avoid exchanging password), talk your address there too. Do not forget your driving license and other official documents.
And that’s all! You are now ready to enjoy your life in your new home. Grant yourself is on his back and focus on enjoying the new living space. This is, after completing the emptying.
