After the move

• Give electrical items a chance to get to room temperature before you operate them.
  
• Expect to feel a bit 'blue' a couple of days after the move. It happens all the time and doesn't mean you hate your new home - just that the move and the thought of unpacking has taken its toll on you a bit.
  
• Call your friends and family to let them know you've moved safely.
  
• If you feel up to it throw a housewarming party!
  
• Keep your kids occupied and give them lots of attention - they'll probably be unsettled by the move. Make time to have some fun!
  
• Check for damage as soon as you can - some insurance policies only give you a specific time to make a claim. Miss it and you won't be able to claim.
