Future homeowner’s checklist
- Book a moving company, or a moving van if you’re doing the move yourself.
- Give a notice of departure to your current landlord before the deadline.
- Clean-up time! Sell everything you don’t need or donate it to charitable organizations.
- Start packing your boxes as soon as possible and make sure to list the contents on each one.
- Confirm the moving details with your mover.
- Go over a list of your valuables with your insurer.
- Photocopy your medical, dental and school certificates if you’re changing neighbourhoods.
- Notify Canada Post of your address change, as well as all your friends, family and service providers.
- Go over any final details with your moving company a few days prior to the big move.
- Return your keys to your landlord, check each room and take one last look.
