Pre-Move Checklist: Setting the Stage for Success

A little preparation goes a long way in ensuring a seamless moving experience. Ticking off these items before move-in day will save you time and hassle.

• Utility Setup: Contact local utility providers (electricity, water, internet, cable) to ensure services are connected and ready by your move-in date.
• Change of Address: Update your mailing address with the post office and notify essential contacts (banks, subscriptions, employers) of your new Victorian Village address.
• Pack Smartly: Label your boxes clearly with contents and the room they belong to. Pack an "essentials" box with immediate necessities like toiletries, medications, a change of clothes, and important documents.
• Notify Management: Communicate your estimated move-in time and any special moving truck needs with our leasing office to ensure a smooth process.
• Final Cleaning (Old Place): If moving from another rental, perform a thorough cleaning to ensure you meet your previous lease obligations.

Move-In Day: Smooth Transitions

The big day has arrived! With a few simple steps, you can make your move-in day at Victorian Village Apartments efficient and enjoyable.

• Key Collection & Walkthrough: Pick up your keys from the leasing office. We recommend doing a walkthrough of your new apartment to note any existing conditions before settling in.
• Parking & Unloading: Familiarize yourself with designated parking areas for moving vehicles and efficient routes for unloading your belongings.
• Essential Setup First: Prioritize setting up your bed, bathroom essentials, and basic kitchen items. This ensures comfort and functionality from day one.
• Child/Pet Safety: If moving with children or pets, ensure a designated safe and comfortable space for them away from the moving activity.

Getting Settled: Unpacking and Personalizing

• Unpack Strategically: Start with the most essential rooms (kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms) and tackle one box at a time to avoid feeling overwhelmed.
• Organize as You Go: As you unpack, organize items directly into their designated spots to establish a functional flow in your new home.
• Personalize Your Space: Add your personal touches with art, photos, plants, and decor. Remember to review our community guidelines regarding any modifications.
• Furniture Arrangement: Experiment with furniture placement to optimize flow and create comfortable living zones that suit your lifestyle.
