• Test the new route to your employer (time required, alternative routes, etc.)
• Provide the necessary number of keys for the apartment entrance door.

During the move

• Instruct the movers where to place each piece and give them a copy of the furniture plan. (A little refreshment for the work team will certainly boost their enthusiasm!)
• Transport damages (also in stairwells) should be confirmed in written form by the carrier.
• Carry out an inspection before leaving the old apartment. Draw up a written record and have it signed by the property owner.
• Remove your name badge on the old apartment.

After the move

• Registration or deregistration at the responsible district office.Please bring the following with you: old/new registration form (Internet or at your local registration office) birth certificate, photo ID, rental contract. If your children's school or kindergarten has not changed, please provide them with your new address and telephone number.
• Please inform the tax office and the Church Constribution Office of the new address.
• Inform your insurance company of the change of address.
• Inform your bank about the new address or clarify the change of the bank branch in charge.
• Inform friends, relatives, associations, clubs etc. about the move.
• Install your new door badge, arrange for the name to be changed on the intercom system.
• If you want to celebrate a "housewarming party", ask your neighbors for their cooperation if this could turn out to be a little "noisier". Or invite your neighbors right away - a good opportunity to get to know each other.
