Your Spring Move-In Guide
Week Seven: A Day Off
Two weeks out from the moving day is the latest one should request a day off from an employer. Unfortunately, not all workers can swing a day off like that. Instead, they will need to plan for a friend or loved one to meet with moving assistants involved.
Additionally, you will require access to your medical records and prescriptions where you’re going, so begin the transfer process of those items. Say farewell to your health professionals and ask for their recommendations. They will point you in a solid direction and ensure that your sensitive information is forwarded accordingly.
Further, if you have sold furniture you cannot afford to move or cannot stomach any longer, you may want to start thinking about what you will be needing. Locate furniture and thrift stores in your soon-to-be area and make your soon-to-be life easier – and more comfortable.
