1 week before

Take time to say goodbye to friends and neighbors before your busy move day.

Make a “survival closet” of things for the last cleanup before you move out – broom, dust cloth, dust pan, mop.

Schedule disconnect times for about a week before your move day — you don’t want to have to pay for cable, phone and utilities when you aren’t even there! Cancel newspapers, cable, pest control, cleaning help, lawn services about a week before the move.

Mail in your change of address forms about week before your move date. Go to USPS.com/move to change your address online.
