Solicitor's Tips When Moving House

Moving house can be a stressful time for those involved in business; however there are a number of tips that can reduce pressure and make this time of transition a little easier. Of course, the most important factor is organisation and this is the key to smooth moving and easy transition. Get the Date Make sure to come up with a certified moving date as this allows you to arrange the home insurance in your new home to cover your moving. This means anything damaged or any problems the day you move are covered and you have little or nothing to worry about in such a case. When using your insurance, make sure that it covers everything from the removal company, to the goods you pack yourself. Many insurance companies don't actually cover the goods you pack yourself as they often deem them to be too much of a risk. Work Make sure to take time off work and if you have children make sure the day is organised for them too. Perhaps send them to friends or keep them entertained elsewhere to keep them out of your hair. Removals Company The removals company you choose should also be covered by insurance you have or at the least have their own to cover you. Try and choose a certified insurance company as otherwise you may find yourself in hot water. Companies governed by the British Association of Removals are preferential. Try to pick out a time when less people are moving as otherwise you may find yourself paying significant amounts of cash or have to book long in advance to get a place. Weekends and September are especially busy. Try avoiding the peak to lower costs and to allow you less worry about timings and this area of organisation. Providers Make a list of all the people you need to inform of your removal. From the postman to the gasman to everyone else, there are lists of people who need to be told you are going elsewhere. This can ensure you don't run up any costly bills or have any serious issues from missing out on post or having a withdrawn insurance policy. You also have to think of your GP and dentists, as well as solicitors and even estate agents. Also arrange for final bills to be paid. Have a Look We all acquire so much junk when we live in a home for a while. Have a look through your home and donate anything you don't want or need to charity. This can be the perfect way to get rid of things you don't need and also to help charity. When you move out make sure all your gas and electricity is cut off or unplugged to prevent any problems in this area. This can really cause significant problems for people should anything go wrong and also make for some complex legal wrangles. Though there is more, this is a good start to ensure you make your move that bit smoot
