For the last few months, you and your family had been very excited to move to your new house. You are worried when you realize that you have not made any plans for moving your things from the old home to your new house. Relax, for your conveniences below are some important factors that have been discussed, to help you plan your moving. These factors are:

Planning the budget for the moving

When drawing up a plan for the moving it is very important that you do a little homework regarding various things like rental rates per hour for large vehicles that would help you with your move, vendor quotations from removal companies that can help you, etc. This information would help you to design a realistic budget for moving to your new house; and do keep a small amount aside for emergency expenses.

Deciding on the day when you will move to your new house

Once you have decided on your budget, the next important decision would be to fix the date for the house moving. Depending on the amount of goods that need to be moved to your new house, you can complete everything in one day or maximum two days. You can also do that over the weekend. This would ensure the availability of extra hands which is very important. You could also ask your close family members and friends to help you out.

Important things to do before you move to your new house

They are many things in your mind right now. A week before you move to your new house, do the following things:

Inform your current neighbors and friends, that you would be moving out and share your new house address with them. This would help them to redirect any visitors that would visit your old house after you move to your new house.

You can update your bank, your children’s school and emergency services about your new house address.

If you are enjoying any DTH services, inform the company immediately and share your new home address with them.

Inform the post office about your new house address.

Deciding whether to hire a van or use the services of a removal company

There are many removal companies, which would help you with your moving to your new family house (or as they call it in Swedish - "Huscompagniet nytt hus för familjen"). It would be advisable to get a good reference and check out the reputation of the company. Once you are satisfied, you can employ them to help out with your moving. If you want to plan the moving on your own, you can simply go to a van rental company and hire a van.

You do feel a little relaxed now, that you have a complete picture of your moving plan. If you do follow your plan everything will be fine and you will enjoy living in your new home.
