Oct

Continue packing everything up and make sure that you are cleaning each area of the home as you go.
If you will need items right away, make sure you pack them separately and don’t just throw them in one gigantic box.
Make sure you have enough time off around the move (coordinate it with your employer).
If you have children find ways to let them contribute to the packing and move planning.
If you have children make sure you have someone lined up to watch them on moving day.
Begin packing suitcases to have all necessary items really handy (some clothes and toiletries).
Reconfirm again your movers and method of moving (take no chances).
Make sure all of your prescriptions are filled.
Empty any safety deposit boxes you may have and put the contents in a safe place for transport.
Cancel the following services at the old home: newspaper, housecleaning, lawncare, pool maintenance, and water delivery.
Take some furniture apart (what you don’t absolutely need) and check it for any pre-move damage.
Make sure all paperwork for the old and new homes is complete and in proper order.
Get rid of any flammables such as paint, propane, gas, etc.
Continue trying to use up any perishable food.
