Steps To Update Your Address

Moving across state or to another state? Updating your address is task number one. We comprised a list of everywhere you need to change your address.

  1. Post Office – do this online! The post office gives you one month to alert the rest of the businesses you interact with.
  2. Credit Card Companies
  3. Loan Offices
  4. Financial Aid
  5. Kid’s School
  6. Government Assistance Agencies – They must be given notice of your move within 10 days.

Pantry Re-Stocking

Add restocking food to moving expenses. You do not want to move expired or opened food to the new house, so clean out the cabinets. Get your kitchen back up in working order with this checklist. A printable list of groceries you need will ease your first shopping trip.

How can our storage space help? You may be trying to sell your house or relocate for work, and a little extra space can make a difference. Show off your home’s best features by creating as much space as possible and storing already packed boxes with us. We assist many customers who are relocating to the area because of work. A temporary move means downsizing your gear, and our storage units are a safe place. Since we have multiple storage facilities near you, choose your location and start settling in to your new home.
