How to Move Your Utilities

If you are planning to relocate, you need to make arrangements to move utilities well in advance, to avoid reaching a new home that lacks power, gas, telephone, and cable facilities!

It is essential to contact utilities companies, to have your utility services disconnected in your old home on the day you move out. It is also necessary to arrange for utilities service to be up and running in you new home, on the day when you move in.

Moving utilities is a critical part of planning your move. Once you have made these arrangements, you can be sure that you and your family will be comfortable in your new home as soon as you move in.

Making arrangements to move utilities in advance is necessary because every utilities company needs to be given sufficient time to make new connections, and to disconnect old ones.

Utilities have different requirements for the amount of time they need, but generally it is best to contact the service department of the service provider at least two weeks before you move, to avoid disruptions.

Make arrangements to have all your essential utilities working in your old house on the day you move, so your packing and loading work will continue without any disruption.

Before you finally move out, arrange to have the residential utilities and/or town to do a final reading of the water, gas, and electricity meters. Keep a copy of the utility bill or report safely, to avoid any disputes later.

Don’t forget to give apartment utilities your forwarding address, where they can send bills and letters. This will ensure that you will receive all utility bills on time, and will be able to avoid unexpected late fees.
