It's Not Over Yet, There Are Some Things to do After You Move Too

Joseph Coupal - Monday, August 22, 2011

As you plan a move, there is some stress involved and a lot of things to do. You thought the only thing you had left to do after you move is unpack right? Wrong. Depending on how far you have moved, and if you have a family, there are still some things to. But the light at the end of the tunnel really is daylight rather than an oncoming train.

Here are a few things that need to be done after your move in order to really feel like you can relax.

  • Set up your utilities. It is football season, so if you are a football fan, this was probably first on your list of things to do.
  • Be sure you have created a “moving file" and keep on your documents and receipts from your move in here. Be extra sure you have your Bill of Lading, paid in full receipt, and any receipts from any hotel stays. You will need all of this information when you prepare your tax returns, as well as for your company if you moved for a job.
  • Of course, if you have children you need to register them from school. If you haven’t done so, you should contact their previous school and get their transcripts.
  • Register to vote.
  • You need to register your car and get new plates if you have made an interstate move. Also, you’ll need a new driver’s license. Be sure you have lots of time and loads of patience for this task. (There are RMV offices in Natick, Watertown, and Newton)
  • Be sure that your mail is being forwarded and that your new address is registered.
  • Of course, you have probably found a doctor and a dentist, if not, do so. You don’t want to be scrambling when you or your kids are sick or when a tooth gets knocked out while skiing this winter.
  • Contact your insurance company. Be sure that your home and auto and any recreational vehicles are covered or get new policies if they are needed.
  • You have just moved, and you all need some friends. Go meet the neighbors. If you have kids, the sooner they, and you, know some of your neighbors the happier they will be. Put them on your bikes and go knock on some doors. You’ll be surprised at how happy your neighbors will be to meet you.
