Settling In

• Locate your local post office, police station, fire station and hospitals as well as gas stations near your home.

• Become familiar with your neighborhood shopping areas. (You may need house ware, tools or other items for your new home unexpectedly.)

• Call the department of sanitation in your new location to find out which day the trash is collected and what type of recycling programs are available in your community.

• Get a new service provider such as a bank, pharmacist, cleaner, cable, etc. if you have not already done so.

• Contact your local DMV if you have moved to a different state to exchange your driver’s license and register your vehicle.

• Provide your new doctor and dentist with your medical history.
