Making the Transition Easy
Planning ahead is crucial to moving before the holidays. Confirm your moving date as early as possible, and arrange transport services well in advance, as December is a peak time for movers.
Inform all relevant utility and service companies of your new address in good time. Well-organised packing will simplify unpacking, so you can focus on seasonal celebrations rather than sorting through clutter.
