Keep it short, visible and shared with the people helping you.<\/p>\n<h2>Confirm access early<\/h2>\n<p>Ask about moving hours, lift bookings, loading arrangements and any building-specific requirements. Confirm these with the relevant building management or provider rather than assuming every property works the same way.<\/p>\n<h2>Pack a first-night bag<\/h2>\n<p>Keep chargers, toiletries, medication, a change of clothes, basic cleaning supplies and drinking water separate from the main boxes. Carry keys and essential documents yourself.<\/p>\n<h2>Label for where things go<\/h2>\n<p>Use the destination room and a short description on more than one side of each box. Mark fragile items clearly. A simple numbered inventory helps you notice missing boxes without opening everything.<\/p>\n<h2>Keep a handover record<\/h2>\n<p>Make a record of the keys and access devices received. Photograph relevant meter readings and the agreed handover condition where appropriate. Store the record with the documents for your move.<\/p>\n<h2>Leave breathing room<\/h2>\n<p>Plan the essential setup first: a place to sleep, a usable bathroom and a clear walkway. The final shelf arrangement can wait until you have lived in the space.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Access arrangements, first-night essentials and a simple handover record for the week you move.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fiona.vonsg.com\/guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fiona.vonsg.com\/guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fiona.vonsg.com\/guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fiona.vonsg.com\/guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fiona.vonsg.com\/guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fiona.vonsg.com\/guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fiona.vonsg.com\/guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fiona.vonsg.com\/guides\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
