Relocation Tips: A Guide on How To Transition Into Your New Home as a Pet Owner

Pets tend to make a home livelier and full of life. Apart from the warmth that your pets bring to your home, they can also play other useful roles such as being therapy as well as assistance animals. Now that you are planning on relocating, it goes without saying that you will not leave your beloved pets behind given that they are an extension of your family.

Moving by itself is a complicated venture and it can be even more strenuous if you have pets. In this article, the focus will be on how you can ensure a smooth transition to your new home for both you and your pets.

Tips On How To Plan For a Smooth Move As a Pet Owner

First, contact your new landlord and enquire if they accept pets in your prospective new home. Remember that building regulations vary and not all property owners accept pets on their premises especially pets that tend to move a lot such as dogs and cats. If your prospective tenant does not accept pets and you cannot bear parting with them, you will have two choices to explore; You can either board your pets or seek alternative accommodation where pets are allowed.

Before starting your relocation, you should also research on the requisite vaccinations that you need to give your pets. This is especially important if you are moving to a foreign country. If your do not have the requisite documentation showing that your pets have been appropriately vaccinated, they may be denied entry into the country you are relocating to.

Apart from the normal vaccinations, it is also recommended that you get your local vet to give your pet a thorough medical examination before your relocation. This will help you ascertain that your beloved pet can handle the rigours of the journey ahead. Should your pet be sick, consider postponing your relocation or having it shipped at a later date.

Remember that during the actual relocation, your pets will not travel in the same vehicle with you. As such, ensure that you acquire the appropriate travel gear for your pets. For example, if you want to move your dogs to your new home and you are travelling by plane, ensure that you acquire portable kennels/crates well before your actual travel date.

It is also recommended that you consider whether your pet can survive in the new environment that you want to introduce it to. Remember that different animals survive best in varying conditions. Given that you love your pet, you should select a living environment where it can both grow and thrive. This is pretty much the advice any vet will give you when moving homes.

Additionally, if you own a pet that requires constant exercise such as a dog, you should consider choosing a neighbourhood that is filled with parks as well as other pet owners. Remember that just like humans, pets also love companionship.

When relocating to a new home, you will need time to first settle down as you plan life in your new residence. During this process, a pet can become a nuisance and a hindrance. If you want to smoothly transition into your new life, consider exploring boarding options in your new neighbourhood. The ideal pet boarding home should meet the following requirements:

  • It should be staffed by employees who have been trained in offering quality care to your type of pet
  • It should allow visitations
  • It should be in close proximity to your new home
  • It should be clean and hygienic
  • It should be registered and licensedIt should also be accredited by professional bodies as well as highly rated by numerous pet owners

To identify a great boarding home for your pet, it is best that you carefully review the testimonials, reviews and ratings left by other pet owners in the past.

Boarding your pet will give you time to settle into your new life and it will also give your pet a chance to experience the environment in the area that you have chosen. Further, it will also afford you a chance to prep your new home for the arrival of your pet.

If you are planning on moving, it is advisable that you send your pet if possible. Moving can be a daunting process and adding your pet to all the baggage that you have to transit will translate to more headaches. Ideally, you should make plans to find your pet awaiting you in your new area of residence.

How To Relocate on a Budget – 8 Tips!

If you have heard someone opining that relocations can be expensive, they probably did not read this post first. Contrary to popular belief, moving does not have to be an expensive venture. There are lots of things you can do to make your relocation friendly as we will demonstrate with the seven tips discussed in the article below.

1. If You Can, DIY (Do It Yourself)

The more that you entrust most aspects of your relocation to your moving company, the more that your moving costs accumulate. If you are looking to move affordably, consider doing some of the things that you would otherwise entrust your movers to handle yourself. For example, you can:

• Shop around your locality and purchase your own packing materials
• Label and pack your possessions
• Ask your mover not to hire extra labour if you will be available to help with handiwork such as loading and unloading
• Transport some of your possessions to your new home instead of entrusting your movers to transit all your goods

2. Plan Ahead

Last minute relocations tend to cost more than moves that are planned ahead. This is because once you give your moving company a short deadline to handle your move, they will have to use extra resources to meet your demands and expectations. If you know you are going to move, consider finding a relocation company early and moving most of possessions before you actually have to leave your current abode.

3. Protect Yourself

Professional movers will take the outmost care not to damage your goods when you are moving. However, you accidents do happen. If you want to avoid shouldering the costs of any damages made by movers, hire licenced, fully insured and bonded movers. If you are dealing with an insured relocation company, any damage to your valuables will be indemnified by the mover’s insurer. On the other hand, if you hire an uninsured mover, you will have to shoulder the burden of any losses that arise as a result of accidents when your movers is handling your property.

4. Ensure Your New Home Is Ready

Warehousing expenses tend to buff relocation costs astronomically. If your new home is not ready to act as a home to you and your possessions, you will be forced to rent a warehouse to store your possessions until your new residence is liveable. To save some quid, ensure that your valuables will be taken directly to your new home once you relocate.

5. Understand The Laws In Your New Locality

Most people tend to forget that relocation is more of a process rather than a venture/project. Your overall relocation costs will therefore include all expenses that you incur until you settle down in your new home. For financial prudence, ensure that you have an in-depth understanding of the laws and regulations in the neighbourhood/city you are moving to. For example, you should ensure that you properly understand and plan on how to deal with the tenancy laws, tax laws as well as living costs in your new home area of choice.

6. Choose The Right Movers

Any individual who has moved in the recent past can certify that the success of your move depends a lot on the professionals that you entrust to handle the process. If you are looking to save money, ensure that your preferred movers meet the qualifications listed below…

• They should be licensed
• They should be seasoned
• They should be trained in how to handle relocations
• They should have undergone background checks
• They should have a stellar/unimpeachable record of meeting client expectations

Expert moving companies who fit the bill tabled above will be able to save you money by offering more value for money, offering free complimentary services as well as giving discounts with a view of attracting referrals and recommendations.

7. Compare Costs

Building on the point above, ensure that you compare the fees of different movers you find suitable in your locality. Remember that moving costs tend to vary depending on a wide range of factors such as items to be relocated as well as the distance to be covered during the move. No matter where you are relocating to, you should strive to identify relocation who offer you value or extra value for your money.

There you have it! Above, we have discussed the go-to guide for moving on a budget. If you, or someone you care about is looking to relocate affordably, follow the tips above.

Remember to share with your circles BECAUSE SHARING IS CARING.

8. Have fun!

Remember that moving is stressful so have some fun doing it!
