Organizing Important Documents
Before beginning the actual process of moving, you need to make sure that you have all your important documents collected. Things such as receipts, quotes and try keeping them organized into a DropBox or Google Drive so they are manageable in one digital folder document system.
Moving Expenses
In an employee relocation, a business will move employees from one location to another. Businesses might offer repayment for costs like house-hunting, short-term living expenses and transportation of household items. Other times, businesses will decide not to reimburse and instead provide lump sums, paid upfront to relocating employees to cover all moving expenses. Employees may keep whatever extra money is leftover or pay any expenses the lump sum does not cover.

Finding the Right Place
Where you will be relocated matters despite how long or short your temporary stay is. This new home is going to be one of your major sources of comfort and a place of relaxation. What size do you want it to be? Will it be fully-furnished? If you have a pet, is the property pet-friendly? Location is also of importance for work as you might need to commute, thus needing to find housing near public transport. Or a nice neighbourhood with proximity to stores and plazas for groceries and clothes shopping.
Preparing in Advance
Relocating to a new city or even a new country can be tiring and overwhelming. That is the reason it is great to have a few necessities dealt with preceding your arrival. While some of your household items may not arrive exactly on your move in date, carry an overnight bag with things you think you might need that day. Items such as clothes, toiletries, electronic devices, etc. Additionally, how you will be getting to your temporary housing. You might just call an Uber, taxi, have a friend or family member drive you or catch a flight. Do not try to figure these things out on the day off in case anything goes wrong. Being prepared in advance relieves you of any last minute stress.
