Moving Checklist ... For Long Distance Moves!

PLAN AHEAD BY:

Deciding what to move and what not to move. Possibly plan a garage sale! You might get some extra cash and have less to move.
Getting estimates from several moving companies or truck rental companies, depending on how you plan to make the move.
Planning your travel itinerary and making transportation and lodging reservations in advance. (Leave a copy with a friend or relative.)
Transferring your bank accounts. They will be happy to open your accounts by mail.
Requesting records from doctors and dentists, including eye glass prescriptions, dental x-rays and vaccinations.
Obtaining your childrens’ school records to make for an easier transfer.
Drawing up a floor plan of where your furniture should be placed. This will help avoid confusion for you and your movers.
Paying existing bills and closing out local charge accounts.
Recording expenses incurred during your house-hunting trips. You will also want to save your moving expense receipts (if the move is employment-related) for tax deductions.
Arranging any special movers, such as for an expensive piano, or such as is necessary to break down and move a pool table or above-ground swimming pool.
