Very Simple Moving Checklist for Your Ole South Home

August 24, 2026

A smooth move into your new Ole South home starts with a clear plan. Breaking the process into a few key stages, before, during, and after moving day, helps you stay organized, reduce stress, and settle in faster. Use this simple checklist to keep everything on track from the first box to your first night. Bookmark this page for reference when it’s time to get moving!

A Few Weeks Before the Move

Start early to avoid a last-minute scramble. 

  • Begin packing room by room, label each box clearly, and donate or discard anything you no longer need. 
  • Schedule movers or reserve a truck, and confirm your moving date so the rest of your plans can fall into place. 
  • This is also the time to gather important documents in one easy-to-find place.

The Week of Your Move

As moving day approaches, handle the practical details. 

  • Set up utilities such as electricity, water, and internet so they are active when you arrive, and submit a change of address with the post office and key accounts. 
  • Pack an essentials box with items you will need right away, including toiletries, chargers, a change of clothes, and basic tools.

Moving Day and Settling In

  • On moving day, do a final walkthrough of your old home and keep your essentials box close. Once you arrive, focus first on the spaces that matter most, like bedrooms and the kitchen, so your household can function comfortably from night one. 
  • Unpack at a steady pace and take time to enjoy making your new house feel like home.

"Choosing Ole South for our family was the best choice we could have made for our first home. The agents that represent Ole South have a great knowledge about the product and always made us feel welcomed every time we came to look at "our" home. Definitely customer service had a huge impact on our decision and as well as the great quality our home possesses. The day of closing the Vice President came to our home, as well as the Ole South agent and the project manager, just to say thank you for choosing Ole South. It made us feel as though we made the right decision that day and after three years don't ever regret choosing an Ole South home."
