Moving Tips

• Moving Checklist
  
  The following list contains most of the big tasks that you'll need to do and some that you won't, depending on whether you now rent, whether you're relocating to a new areaor other factors. There may be things not on this list that you'll also have to do; add them in the space allotted. Your moving company may also provide its own moving kit.
  
  While REBAC's Homebuyer's Toolkit provides some valuable information, defer to the expertise of your moving company when dealing with them.
