Thankfully, if you&#8217;re familiar with the most common things that people forget while moving, you&#8217;ll be able to make sure that you never leave anything important behind.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Hidden Belongings&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you ever hidden money away for a rainy day? Do you have your most valuable jewelry stored in a safe? We sometimes hide items in our apartment to protect them, but unfortunately, those hidden items are often forgotten when people get ready to move.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Try to think of anything you might have hidden. Check every hiding place that you&#8217;ve used over the years, even if you don&#8217;t think that you have anything stored there. Please don&#8217;t take any chances, and make sure you search your home for hidden items before leaving them behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Items In Storage<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have storage containers tucked away in an attic, a back closet, or another location that you don&#8217;t look at very often, you may forget to pack those items up while <a href=\"https:\/\/www.homeinside.net\/moving-to-a-new-apartment-can-be-stressful\/\">moving to a new apartment<\/a>. Take the time to find all the things you have in storage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Go through your basement from top to bottom. Check your entire attic. Look in the back of the closet and under the stairs. If you have anything in storage, you&#8217;ll want to make sure you find those items before moving day. Since the things you have in storage are probably packed up already, you shouldn&#8217;t have to do any packing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Outdoor Decor<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your outdoor living space can be a big asset. However, you might forget about the things you have outdoors when you&#8217;re getting ready to move. If you&#8217;ve hung up wind chimes, a flag, or other outdoor decorations, you&#8217;ll want to make sure you bring those items with you to your new place.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Outdoor decor is a wonderful way to enhance your home and make it feel like it&#8217;s your own. It can also improve your home&#8217;s curb appeal. Don&#8217;t just inspect your entire house when you&#8217;re making sure that you haven&#8217;t left anything behind. Take a look outside too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Laundry&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you ever forgotten about a load of laundry that you had in the dryer? Normally, it isn&#8217;t a big deal to forget about your laundry for a day or two, but it can be a huge problem when you&#8217;re moving to a new place. That&#8217;s why you&#8217;ll want to make sure you check both your washer and dryer before you leave your home for good.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if you&#8217;ve never forgotten about a load of laundry before, it&#8217;s easy to overlook things when you&#8217;re in the midst of a move. Moving to new apartment can add a lot of stress to your life, which means you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bustle.com\/articles\/136946-how-to-stop-forgetting-things-for-good-with-7-helpful-tips\">might forget about something<\/a> that you normally would have remembered.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Prescriptions&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s common for people to forget to pack items when they&#8217;re moving, but several others things can be forgotten as well. As an example, you may forget to have prescriptions transferred to a new pharmacy. This can be a big problem, especially if you take daily medication.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Talk to your doctor about your prescriptions ahead of time. If you&#8217;re going to be seeing a new doctor after you move, you may want to have your current doctor write a refill for your medications now. That way, you won&#8217;t have to deal with a lapse a month or two down the road.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Utilities&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Another thing that many people overlook when they&#8217;re moving is their utility bills. You&#8217;ll want to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.familysurvivalplanning.com\/how-to-shut-off-utilities.html\">turn off the utilities<\/a> at your old home before your move, and you&#8217;ll want to make sure you set up utilities at your new place.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Memberships&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a membership at a local gym, and you won&#8217;t be able to use that membership after your move, you&#8217;ll want to make sure that you take the time to cancel that membership. Take a look at your finances and see if there&#8217;s anything that needs to be canceled.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s easy to forget about memberships, especially if your payments are automated. Ensure you figure out what you&#8217;re paying for and cancel any memberships that you no longer use. This could wind up saving you quite a bit of money.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;ve ever left something behind during a move, you know how frustrating it can be.
