If your job or school requires a move to a new city, there is a lot to learn before you can make the switch. When you get orders to relocate to the capital city of Ohio, it helps to start by understanding what you need to know. Of course you will need an experienced and reliable team of Columbus movers to help you with the heavy lifting and unloading, so start with some research into finding a team that understands your needs.

Learn Before You Go

Overall, a lot of research and basic information can be garnered on the web, so look up information such as:

•  Local city and county government websites
• School districts and libraries
• Reviews of local businesses such as banks and realtors
• News online to get a sense of the community
• Local parks, attractions, and recreation
• Crime statistics and local law enforcement
• Walkability – enter addresses into websites to see local restaurants and shops

Along with all the research about the community, schools, safety, businesses, and more, get some references when looking for the Columbus movers who will help to make the move go smoothly and efficiently.

Go With the Pros for Moving Help

Whether it is large difficult items like a piano or musical instruments, fragile family heirlooms, or a lot of bulky books, the pros you select will help you figure out the best methods to pack and safely transport all your belongings to your new home. Armed with knowledge and pre-planning, a move to a new city does not need to be overwhelming. With allies on your side and some research, you will be ready to face whatever challenges the new place can bring.

The process of buying a new home can be full of confusion for new purchasers. The transition from the ease and simplicity of making a monthly rental payment to learning about the effect of various interest rates, whether variable or fixed, as well as down payment terms and conditions and fees and costs for agents and mortgage brokers, can seem intimidating at first. Along with all the unanswered questions in the process of a move, from finding the best rates on reliable Columbus movers, to researching the new school districts, to sending change of address cards to the entire mailing list, learning the ins and outs of mortgage lending is an important part of the learning curve to become a homeowner.

Mortgage Insurance Types

The term “mortgage insurance” can apply to two different cases. Mortgage life insurance is a type of coverage that Columbus homeowners can buy to protect their mortgage payments in the event of death or severe disability. Mortgage guarantee insurance is a type of protection for the lender, so that it will be certain to be paid if the loan goes into default. Borrower paid private mortgage insurance (BPMI) is often required if the loan to value (LTV) rate is high, generally where the buyer puts less than twenty percent down payment. Along with the process of finding the right house, selecting the best Columbus movers to handle the big job of loading and unloading the moving truck into the new house, and getting the change of address to everyone who needs to know it, a move to homeownership involves an education in the modern mortgage. The more you know, the better prepared you are for the change.

For many people who haven’t moved from one house to another since college, the idea of loading an entire houseful of personal belongings into boxes and into a truck is overwhelming. To keep moving day from becoming a nightmare of uncertainty and unanswered questions, start early on organizing everything with a final result of unpacking in mind. Finally, when the day arrives for the Columbus movers to take everything from the house into the truck, the system will keep everything in place, and sanity can be preserved throughout the transition.

•  Color Codes

Pack for Columbus using colorful codes that you will identify easily. Packing tape and labels come in a dazzling array of colors and styles. One organizing theme that works for some is to designate a color of tape for each room of the house. It is then easy to tell at a glance whether the stack of boxes goes upstairs to the bedroom, or down to the basement, based on the tape on the box. Naturally, use a clear labeling system, as well, and keep track of it all with an index list so that every box has a place and a clear destination.

•  Unload Before You Go

With some pre-planning and thought, the weeks or months before the move can be the best time to sort belongings. A Saturday morning before the Columbus movers arrive to load the boxes into the truck is a great time to host a yard sale. The extra cash that you can garner will go a long way to helping with miscellaneous expenses, and you will avoid having to move things that you no longer need. A win-win situation for all!

When moving to a new house, be ready for a drastic change in the feel of a new yard. Especially when going from city dwelling in an apartment or condo to a house with property, the move will add some new challenges to the to-do list. When you are getting settled into the new place, even before the team of Columbus movers has unloaded the truck, assess the state of the yard.

Know What You Have at the New Place. Depending on the season, the grass may be brown and seem dead and the borders may look like nothing but empty strips of dirt along the house. In springtime, the lawn will come to life, if all goes well, and the planting beds can be customized. Ask neighbors or lawn experts for help to identify the variety of grass at the new property, and figure out if it needs work.

Brighten the Borders. When you have just moved in, one way to add new appeal is by changing out the border plantings. Be careful to look for bulbs, which may be dormant but healthy under the soil, but feel free to remove flowering annuals and other groundcover plants to supplement the look with fresh colors and varieties.

Consider Edibles. Some people love to intersperse attractive edibles among border flowers, from low-growing thyme and oregano, to varieties of kale and even strawberries, which look good whether they have berries on them or not. Even before the Columbus movers have brought the lawn care equipment out of the truck, the yard can begin to take on the look and feel of home with a few personal design accents.

Your Columbus professional movers are relieved to learn that a local teen is on the road to recovery after collapsing Tuesday. After enduring an excruciating four-day Xbox marathon, our hero emerged from his room unable to maintain consciousness. Jessie Rawlins, the fifteen-year-old boy’s mother, rushed her son to the hospital fearing for his life. Recalling the last four days at home, Jessie realized her son was grossly deprived of nutrients and other vitals as he rarely left his room and fed primarily on snack food. Doctors attribute gaming-related collapses to lack of food and fluids as well as lack of rest and regular physical activity (like moving!) Dr. Mom made her diagnosis as well, and promptly removed what she believed to be the main source of the problem, the Xbox.

A welcomed decrease in gas prices has come for Columbus locals. Fuel costs had previously been on the rise in Columbus, particularly during the week of Independence Day. The current average cost for a gallon of gas in Columbus is $3.36, which is down fifteen cents from last week, and nearly thirty cents from a year ago! Your Columbus area movers are hoping this trend of shrinking gas prices continues, and we know we’re not alone!

Mayor Michael Coleman recently notified the NBA that Columbus is ready for a professional basketball team. After recent purchase of the Nationwide Arena, it seems only natural to Coleman for a Columbus basketball team to call it home. Your Columbus relocation specialists would love to be the official mover of an NBA franchise! However we may be waiting quite a while for that title as the NBA has no plans to induct new teams. Feel free to join your residential movers in crossing our fingers for a team to relocate to Columbus!

Your Columbus movers are among many in Ohio who aren’t too happy with the hike in gas prices which came with the New Year. Fuel cost in Ohio averages at $3.38 per gallon of regular unleaded gas; six cents more expensive than last week, and fifteen cents more than last month! As your Columbus relocation service providers are on the road all day every day, the increase in local fuel cost definitely adds up. Gas prices in general have been so high that a nationwide drop in fuel-demand has been recorded by analysts to the tune of 2.5 percent. Fortunately for your Columbus area residential movers, what goes up must come down. Though the cost of fuel in Ohio is on the rise, we can at least be relieved that we are no longer paying $4.16 per gallon like we were last May!

electricity is a crucial component of comfortable living in the current era, and that is precisely why your Columbus area moving professionals always remind clients to transfer utility services well in advance of their move-in day. Yes power is important, but sometimes our precious electricity goes MIA, which is a dilemma that every homeowner and renter should be prepared for in case a lightning storm or a crashed-into-transformer cuts the lights unexpectedly. Power outages sure do make you appreciate electricity along with the other finer things in life, doesn’t it?
