Moving Tips for Sellers:

Assuring a trouble-free move

• Complete the online United States Postal Service change of address located at moversguide.usps.com.
• Complete change of address notifications for your bank, insurance companies, associations you belong to, credit card issuers and other lenders.
• Notify colleagues, relatives, and friends.
• Make arrangements to disconnect and connect utilities.
• Moving out of town? Cancel your newspaper subscription.
• Find out what your homeowners insurance coverage is for possessions in transit. Typically moving companies only insure what they move and then it may not be for replacement value.
• If moving appliances, clean them out and prepare them for the move.
• Keep a "must have" box with you. Place medications, toiletries, tools you may need, snacks, bottled water and tissue in it.
