I am updating an old move-planning checklist and want to include the things people usually forget.
Most checklists cover boxes and movers, but the expensive surprises tend to be elsewhere.
What hidden costs hit you the hardest?
- Utility setup fees and deposits
- Temporary housing overlap
- Parking permits or building fees
- Insurance changes
- Storage, shipping, and replacement purchases
If you had to do your move again, what would be on your first-week budget list?
