Moving Out of State? 7 Tips for Avoiding a Big Hassle
Sep 28, 2022
Moving out of state can be a big undertaking, and shouldn’t be a last-minute task to take on. However, though proper preparation is integral to the long-distance moving process, you should always take care to lower the amount of stress or problems you can easily fall into when faced with planning a move like this. Preparing yourself well will alleviate these issues, however, and give you a good idea of what you’ll be dealing with.
Though nobody is a huge fan of everything involved in the moving process, it will be incredibly helpful to your entire move to thoroughly research not only your professional moving company but your packing and relocation strategy as a whole. One of the best things you can do for your move is to prepare thoroughly for a big transition like this, so we’ve put together a complete list of helpful out-of-state moving tips to let you relocate smoothly and successfully.
How to Move Out-of-State
The first thing you need to do when tackling an out-of-state or long-distance move is to thoroughly research the new town or city you’re headed to. Before you move, knowing what your new location is like and what to expect from your new environment will help you prepare for whatever might be thrown your way. Researching and learning more about your new city will also let you know more about each neighborhood and better scope out where you might want to settle.
Choosing the right neighborhood in your new city or area can make or break your entire relocation, so you’ll want to look into various aspects of your potential new home thoroughly. When researching neighborhoods, consider the following:
- Schools: This is a big one for people with existing or growing families. The quality of your children’s education and their school systems should always be a top priority, so looking into the ratings and experience of those living in your future school will be distracting if you choose to move to a certain area.
- Commutes: Having a feasible and easy commute time makes a huge difference in your everyday life. If you’re stuck in traffic for hours or live very far away from your job, it can throw off your entire day, every day. If you’re moving to an area with public transportation, you should see if you’ve located nearby the subway or a bus route.
- Crime: This can be of particular consideration if moving into an area you’ve never been to before or have no experience with.
- Expense: After looking into all of this, you should look at your budget and determine whether or not you can truly afford to live in the neighborhood you’re looking at. Take into account now only housing and rental prices (and of course, property taxes), but your own lifestyle and how the prices in this area might impact you in the long run.
The next thing you should do when researching your neighborhood is the differences in the cost of living in your current area versus the one you’re moving to. You can use a cost of living calculator to try and accurately estimate the average costs of living expenses like food, gas, clothes, housing, transportation, etc. Take a look at the difference in tax rates and in how you’ll pay them in your new area as well to avoid unexpected costs or confusion.
How to Find the Right Out-of-State Movers
When moving out of state, you’ll of course want to find the right professional movers for your relocation. Finding long-distance movers with the right reputation and track record for your relocation makes all of the difference in not only the cost of your move but in the quality of your experience and the safety of your household items.
When choosing professional movers, think of your budget and how much you’d ideally like to save or spend on your move. Take stock of all of the items in your home to also try and estimate how much of an undertaking your move will be, and if you can declutter or eliminate items to make things cheaper or more cost-effective.
Consider your timeline for your move, and how soon you’ll want to move by. This will also help you determine your costs, and when you’ll want to book, as movers are significantly more busy (and hence in demand) during peak moving seasons. If possible, try to give yourself the most flexible moving timeline possible in order to take the stress off of you and to ensure that your costs are as low as possible.
If you’re relocating for work, you should also ask your employer if they’ll cover or reimburse moving costs associated with your relocation. This will also help you save significantly and will let you have a lot more flexibility with your timeline and budget.
