When it’s time to move into a new home, people typically have a lot on their minds. It’s easy to overlook things and make mistakes. In Rochester, NY, Becker Movers provides comprehensive local or national residential moving services, and they’re here to inform you of three common residential moving mistakes.

Here are a few mistakes you should avoid after your big move:

• Forgetting To Change Your Address: It’s important to both your peace of mind and privacy that your mail is delivered to the correct address. Submit your change of address request at least two weeks early to ensure the timely and accurate delivery to your new home.
• Forgetting To Manage Your Home Services: From cable to electricity to sewage, it’s important that you manage your service changes before you move. Turning off your unneeded services at your old address prevents overpaying, and getting new services set up on time at the new address keeps your life flowing as smoothly as possible during the move.
• Not Completing An Inspection: A move out inspection clarifies the state of your residence upon moving out. Getting this done both protects you from liability for future damage that may occur and helps you to retrieve your security deposit if you were renting.

Planning ahead and managing these important factors before and during your move can help you to save money and can also make your move more convenient and comfortable. If you need moving services for residential moving, commercial moving, international moving, or packing and storage, the professional and helpful staff of Becker Movers in Rochester, NY, will be glad to assist you and answer any questions you may have.
