Two Weeks Before Your Move

*Check with your insurance company to cancel current coverage or transfer coverage to your new home.
*Make arrangements for transporting your pets and any house plants, because movers can't take them in the van.
*Meet with your bank to change account status.
*Transfer all current prescriptions to a drug store in your new town.
*Cancel any delivery services such as newspapers. Consider starting a subscription to the newspaper in your new town to introduce you to local news happenings.
*Have your automobile serviced if you're traveling by car.
*Be sure to empty secret hiding places to remove valuables and spare house keys.
*Make new bank safety deposit box arrangements in your new hometown. Make arrangements to safely transfer items from your old safe deposit box to your new one.
*Hold a garage sale to avoid unneeded clutter in your new home.
