Review your final bill. Is it the same as
the estimate? Check for any additional charges.
If
you discover any damage to your household goods
call your moving company. Request they come to
your house to inspect the damage. Movers
reserve the right to repair rather than replace
damaged property and may choose to do so.
For an additional fee, Movers will
unpack for you and remove all packing materials.
Take
time to familiarize yourself with your new
surroundings. Tour the neighborhood to get a feel
for the area.
Check the location of your fuse box and
water main valve as you become familiar with your
new residence.
If you are moving into an apartment complex
become familiar with your building manager or
superintendent.
Insurance claims:
If you discover and need to file a claim, here are

for damage to your goods.
