Often in life people are required to move from their place of life, onto another town, another city, or another house...this happens to most everyone in life.. ..because of work, illness, or any other life event....
It can be a very sad, stressful, scary event to move, being nervous is natural.....making plans for moving months before you move is best....acquiring a home before you leave to move is good, or if in apartments to dwell, know some about where they are located, and the rent, is there plenty of space for the occupants ??? You may look at homes for rent / purchase.....look at online before moving, they often advertise online....listings tell information.
Take cleaning supplies with you, to clean before / after moving in....
Search through newspaper ads or online for work occupations close by your new home, or in close local town, any work is needed....this could be way to meet others....help to pay bills....
Pets are your family so keep them secure in pet taxis with doors secured / locked...so they cannot escape ! Very important....keep cats interior of home always, small dogs also, other grand sized dogs collar + leash til at new home...take care of them while travelling to new home !
Moving trucks can be rented, fill interior with all home items you are taking with you to your new location, wrap items that can break easily in bubble wrap, material that will keep it from rolling all over the moving truck, you need many cardboard boxes that are strong to place items into, use packing tape to seal the boxes good...plastic storage boxes with lid tops..work nicely..fill to top, you may need many to store items for move....
U - haul, and Budget are two moving truck rentals I know of.....drive to new location, unpack then drive rental truck to local in the area truck rental...
Clean storage units out, you may have a garage sale before you move, advertise with homemade signs, or in local newspapers....try to do this garage sale a few weeks or months before moving....maybe help with expenses, and space !!!
When arriving to moving destination, you may need to rent a storage unit, and this can be helpful if available...some may not have storage units available....place items you have no space for in these storage units, for cost, always secure these storage units with locks....remove items as needed.
When arriving to location you may need to purchase furniture, tables, beds, chairs, clothing, lamps, refrigerators, microwave, glassware, cooking pans and pots.....purchase at garage sales, thrift shops, Goodwill, any second hand stores...for cost...clean before use ! Sanitize ! .....could be more so affordable, or if you have enough money, purchase brand new.
Children may need to be enrolled in local schools, talk with school officials, talk to the kids about new school, and how it takes time to make new friends...it is nervous / stressful for them....
New towns, cities, may be very different from where you are now, know that these towns / cities may have curfews, not everything locally available as before you lived elsewhere....other things of town / city life will be different....
Attending church, city / town meetings is a good way to become involved in the new home town....meeting others is best way to understand the area, and identify with townspeople, it could help your children also....town events, church events, school events are nice to be apart of, as well as local good charitable organizations.....helping out / volunteer is also good way to meet others....try !
Starting over your life in a new location is always life changing, just know that many go through this, and probably feel the same about the relocating....
Your life may be better after moving, meet new good people who are clean + sober, trustworthy who will be good friends to you....nice to be social with, friends your whole life, maybe !....
Adjusting to relocation / moving, takes time and patience...things will eventually be better....emotions will calm...
Many emotions happen with moving, saying goodbye to old friends, goodbye to old ways maybe, goodbye to towns / cities you grew up in, or having to tell family goodbye...don't be sad ! Call and write letters.....
When you have a new home, you may wish to clean, repair if needed, paint walls interior or exterior with a paint color you prefer....
start over new with everything....
