What should I include in a moving checklist for relocating to or within Canberra?

A Life Is New Team Answered by

A Canberra moving checklist should cover your moving date, removalist or truck booking, decluttering, packing, and a final clean. Arrange electricity, gas, internet and water-related account changes, and update your address with Services Australia, your employer, bank, insurer and the electoral roll. Check access and parking at both properties, particularly in apartment buildings or busy inner-city streets, and ask the relevant council or building manager about permits or moving rules. Before leaving, photograph meter readings and the property’s condition, then confirm your bond, handover and key arrangements with the agent or landlord.
