TO HELP IN THE MOVING PROCESS

Utilities
At the time of vacating the property near closing utility accounts should be transfered.  It is best that the sellers call the gas and electric companies to request a final reading but not a shut off.  The purchasers should then contact the gas and electric company to have the service put in their name. 
Also the seller is responsible for the final water bill at the time of vacating
The post office must be notified
Drivers licenses must be updated
It is the purchaser's responsibility to inform the municipality within 45 days of a change in ownership. 
Remember that we are in a cold region and pipes will freeze so co-ordinate the transfer of heat and water. 
Don't forget your voter registration!
