Before you take a job, you want to be sure that you can make the transition from one state to the next. You have already found the best place to work and live, so moving is the next step. Moving companies such as los angeles movers help make the move, convenient, comfortable and affordable. Here are some moving tips to keep in mind before you take that next job.

The big items like furniture and appliances are easy to spot and you will usually remember to move them. With the larger items, you can simply write down a list of the items you plan on moving. They will not disappear on you. The smaller items like personal documents and setting up utility accounts at the new address are easy to forget.

• Items like wills, house deeds, family jewelry, old photographs and family home videos should be the first things to box up.
• Contact your local post office and fill out the forms to forward all incoming mail. You can also do this online if you lack the time to go.
• If you are someone who needs the Internet to do their work and check email, then make sure to get that set up as soon as the first day or earlier.
• Cancel or assign new addresses for telephone, cable, electric, gas and other utility companies you might use.

Make sure someone will be available to receive the items at the final destination. Prep the area by removing all unnecessary items that may take up space and prevent the movers from doing their job. The easier you make the moving for them, the sooner you can get to move into your new location.

Prior to setting down any furniture, make sure to inspect the area for any insect infestations. Once everything gets laid down, it is harder for the pest control to spray all the necessary corners. You certainly do not want to deal with fleas and other rodents.
