Moving Checklist - Part 2

Here is the Part 2 addition to my Moving Checklist - Part 1:

11. Empty freezer; plan use of foods. Defrost freezer-refrigerator. (Place charcoal to dispel odors.)
12. Have appliances serviced for moving.
13. Clean rugs or clothing, before moving; have them "moving-wrapped."
14. Check with your moving counselor: insurance coverage, packing and unpacking labor, arrival day, various shipping papers, method and time of expected payment.
15. Plan for special care needs of infants.
16. Plan garage sale.
17. On your moving day: Carry currency, jewelry, documents yourself; or use registered mail.
18. Plan for transporting pets. (They are poor traveling companions if unhappy.) Make sure you can be found if they become lost.
19. Carry traveler's checks for quick available funds. Tell close friends or relatives your route and schedule (including overnight stops). Use them as "message headquarters."
20. Double check closets, drawers, and shelves (to be sure they are empty).
21. Arrange to leave keys with new tenant, owner or agent.
