First Apartment Checklist: What To Do & What To Have
Signing that least for your first apartment is an exciting moment. You’re about to get that first taste of freedom from family and the place you’ve called home, and experience what it’s like to live independently. Now before you take off head first to go out and buy all new stuff and leave your John Hancock on that lease, take a look at these actions and considerations you should take when getting and moving into your first apartment.
Save up!
Renters insurance!
Take inventory of what you have!
Safety first!
You need to protect yourself the best that you can when living on your own. That’s where preventative measures step in! Invest in a small fire extinguisher and stow it away in your kitchen, change the locks on your doors and put new batteries in your smoke alarm and carbon monoxide detector. Then test them! Be sure to have a first-aid kit, flashlight and extra batteries of various sizes in your apartment as well. You can never be too careful.
Setup utilities!
Change your mailing address!
Take pictures!
Get outside help!
Lacking storage space in your new apartment? Keep the things that you don’t need on a regular basis in storage!
Now that you’re prepared with the know-how to move into your first apartment, it’s time to celebrate and enjoy it! Invite over some friends and family to have a housewarming party, get creative decorating your new home, and live on the edge by walking around naked and going to the bathroom with the door open!
