Beltmann Basics: What to do 8 weeks before your move
March 26, 2015
Summer is just around the corner, which is when a majority of the U.S. will move. Knowing that, we thought we would kick-off a series called “Beltmann Basics” that will take you some basic things you will need to do in order to prepare for your move ahead.
Let’s start with 2 months out –here are some things you should be thinking about.
- Decide if you want to hire a mover
- Get a copy of the floor plan of your new home
- Decide what you will move vs. what you would like to sell
- Research moving companies
- Select 3-4 and get an in-home estimate (moving quote)
- Compare each quote apples-to-apples
- Research to ensure each are a ProMover
- Make a moving budget
- Discuss moving timeline with your family
- Start connecting with people in your new city/neighborhood
Here are some websites that might help you with the above tasks:
