Plan your move: timely planning for your move
Planning a move takes up a lot of time before the actual moving day. Therefore, start in good time to be able to carry out your private move according to plan. It is worthwhile to already make the first notes if you can consider a time frame for your move out. Depending on the notice period of your old apartment, this can mean a different time buffer. If you are planning your move, we recommend that you take the first steps at least three months in advance.
Plan your move properly – new and old apartment
Planning a move properly means both tackling the organizational things for the new place and preparing the old place for the move. Think about what you want to take with you to the new place. The more furniture and inventory you have to move, the more costly your move can be. With a moving company, the cost of your move can vary. Accordingly, take the opportunity to clean out your apartment, attic or basement, and other storage locations. In this context, you can also make a bulky waste appointment, which sometimes requires some lead time.
To help you properly plan your move, be aware of the notice periods for utility services. If you are moving to another city, this may also include contracts for sports clubs, childcare centers or public authorities. In our practical relocation checklist for authorities, we have summarized what you should pay attention to, for example, when deregistering and re-registering. It is also important to assemble your packing materials for your old home in order to be able to transport your belongings safely. Our tip: Make a list of your furniture and inventory in advance. This way, you can be sure that everything will be included in the move and you will also know in which boxes the items are located.
Your new apartment is waiting to be furnished by you. So planning a move properly also includes the furnishings. Arrange your furniture with this in mind and check any new purchases that may be associated with longer delivery times. This can save you both time and money. A new home also means a new address. Adjust your data deposited with authorities in good time and take out new household contents and liability insurance policies if necessary. You should also include the re-registration of your motor vehicle in your early planning. Our relocation checklist for the change of address shows you the most important places to do this. What you should also pay attention to when planning your move is the bureaucratic level. This includes, for example, the provision of a deposit or the creation of a forwarding order.
With renovation and more plan your move
No move without renovation. In your intention to plan the move, you should allow sufficient time for it. At best, check your old rental agreement to see what arrangements have been made. It may be necessary to request a vacation day from your employer for this purpose. Of course, this also applies to the moving day itself. Renovation is easiest if you organize moving helpers to assist you. Prepare them early enough for the move so that you have enough helping hands available. We recommend that you measure your doors, the staircase or the elevator so that everything runs smoothly when you remove your furniture on moving day.
