So you\u2019re getting ready to pack up your life and move into a new home? This is very exciting news. And, believe it or not, amidst all the excitement and packing and renting of portable storage unit and more packing, you\u2019re likely to forget a few things. Hopefully you don\u2019t forget your son Kevin and leave him behind at the old house (hey we understand, it happens). But there are a few services you should get set up in your new home ASAP in order to make the transition as easy as possible. Here\u2019s our list of the five services to set up in your new home ASAP.<\/p>\n
These are the essentials, and therefore make it first on our list. You can do laundry or take a hot shower without gas, water, or electricity in place and paid for. And god knows that when you start unpacking, you\u2019re going to get dirty and sweaty and gross \u2013 and you\u2019re also going to find a bunch of stuff you should have thrown away. That\u2019s why it\u2019s also important to set up garbage before you start unpacking. Get a jumpstart on these and you\u2019ll make your move a whole lot easier.<\/p>\n
You need to get a plumber in your new city that you can trust. Why? Because you honestly never know what kinds of plumbing problems you\u2019ll have on day one (and trust us, if it could happen, it will). Look for a plumber that is fully licensed and insured and also has good reviews on Yelp or other online review platforms. When in doubt, ask your neighbors who they choose for plumbing services. This is a great chance to meet the neighborhood, too.<\/p>\n
Internet is a must wherever you go these days, so you might as well get Wi-Fi set up from the get-go. Need to look up a place to grab dinner near your new house? Can\u2019t do that without internet, unless you want to waste your cell phone data. And how will you keep up to date on local news without cable installed? It\u2019s best not to delay your comfort by postponing the installation of your chosen internet service.<\/p>\n
Are you just itching to get rid of that ugly stump in your new front yard, or to swap out the messy pine tree with a coast live oak tree instead? Start looking for lawn and tree care specialists early so you aren\u2019t scrambling to find one after the next big storm when a tree branch falls on your roof.<\/p>\n
Sure, you might have moved to a great neighborhood in a great town, but it\u2019s never a bad idea to have a security system<\/a> in place. This is even more true because people driving by will obviously be able to tell that you\u2019re either moving out or moving in, and this makes you vulnerable to burglaries. Remember to keep your doors locked even if you\u2019re home, and not to leave the garage door open simply because it\u2019s more convenient during the move. In the meantime, look into getting a system like the\u00a0Nest Cam<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0ADT<\/a>.<\/p>\n If you need an on demand solution for storage in your new home then look no further than UNITS East Bay.
