Moving to Sittard-Geleen, how do you plan it?


There is a lot to do before you move to your new home in Sittard-Geleen. There are still some administrative matters to take care of, but you also have to take into account registering with the new municipality, informing the necessary removal services of the date of your move. You should also not forget to pack your belongings and dismantle your furniture. We would like to mention a few important points that you should pay attention to when moving house.

Documents and administrative arrangements

The administrative arrangements that still need to be made are sometimes overlooked in the heat of the move. Yet they are extremely important. Before you can move into your new home, you will need to arrange the necessary insurances.  In addition, you will need to make new agreements with the water, electricity and gas companies. And don’t forget the telephone and internet. It’s always a good idea to make a checklist of all the administrative arrangements that need to be made. To make sure everything goes smoothly prepare all important documents, proof, passport, driving licence, birth certificate, marriage certificate, children’s birth certificate etc.

When to move to Sittard-Geleen?

It goes without saying that you can move to Sittard-Geleen all year round, but some periods are more suitable.
