After Relocating
During the First Week After Moving Locate police and fire stations as well as hospitals
and gas stations near your
home. Scout your new neighborhood for shopping areas. You may need furniture, tools, or
housewares unexpectedly.
Call the Department of Sanitation in your new town to find out which day the trash is
collected. Also ask whether your new community has recycling programs. Seek out new
service providers such as a bank, cleaners, veterinarian.
Register to vote. Call your local board of elections for specific registration
information. Ask them how to notify your previous voting district of your change of
address.
If you have moved into a different state, contact the Department of Motor Vehicles to
exchange your driver's license.
Call your Chamber of Commerce for helpful information on: schools, cable service, cultural
events and community activities, Libraries and parks, and availability of emergency
calling services, such as 911.
Provide your new doctor and dentist with your medical history. You may need to request
your file from your previous doctor/dentist. Transfer insurance policies to an agent in
your new community. You may also wish to make a detailed list of your belongings, their
value, and your coverage.
Give your new home a good cleaning. Moving can be stressful. Watch for effects on family
members and pets so you can give comfort and a helping hand. |
