Here's a guide with advice on how to get through the process - before, during and after the move. <\/p><p><br><strong>1. change of address<\/strong> <br>Before you move, remember to notify the public authorities of your change of address via borger.dk. It's quick and easy, and it ensures that you receive your mail and comply with the law. All it takes is a few clicks under self-service.  <\/p><p><strong>2. make a budget and take out insurance<\/strong> <br>One of the most important steps in leaving home is to get your finances in order. Start by making a budget of your income and expenditure so that you have an overview of what you can afford each month. Also think about insurance, such as home and accident insurance. Although it may seem like an extra cost, insurance can save you money in the long run if you have an accident.   <\/p><p><strong>3. pack your belongings<\/strong> <br>An organized move starts with good packing. Follow these tips to make it go smoothly: <\/p><p>Sort your stuff: throw away what you no longer use.  <br>Divide into categories: put things from the same category in the same box. Label the boxes: clearly mark which room they will go into at your new address. Consider the weight: Don't pack boxes that are too heavy to avoid damage to yourself and your belongings.    <br>Plan ahead: Give yourself plenty of time to pack to avoid stress.  <br><br>If you need more packing tips, read our detailed packing guide.<\/p><p><strong>4. Don't have enough space? Get a storage unit   <\/strong><br>Are you moving to a smaller place and don't have room for all your stuff? At Pelican Self Storage, we offer flexible storage solutions from 0.5 m\u00b2 to 50 m\u00b2. Whether you need to store large pieces of furniture or just a few boxes, we have a storage unit to suit you. All our storage units are secure, clean and dry - the perfect place to store your belongings until you get more space.   <\/p><h4><strong>Frequently asked questions and answers  <\/strong><\/h4><p><strong>What does it cost to move away from home?<\/strong> <br>According to a study, young people spend on average around DKK 25,000 on moving away from home. This includes moving costs, furniture and deposits. <\/p><p><strong>What do you need when you leave home?<\/strong><br>When you move, make sure you have the things you need for the kitchen, bedroom, living room, bathroom and cleaning. A toolbox and some decorations can also be a good idea to make your new home functional and cozy. <\/p><p><strong>What should you consider when moving?<\/strong><br>In addition to the change of address, you will need to notify your electricity supplier of the move, cancel your internet and TV if necessary, and remember to remove your name from the old mailbox and put it on the new one. The post office will be notified automatically when you notify them of your move. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The ultimate guide to moving away from home Find a storage unit Moving away from home for the first time<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"elementor_header_footer","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-14332","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<title>Tips for people moving away from home | Pelican Self Storage<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/en\/tips-for-people-moving-away-from-home\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Tips for people moving away from home\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The ultimate guide to moving away from home Find a storage unit Moving away from home for the first time\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/en\/tips-for-people-moving-away-from-home\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Pelican Self Storage\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/PelicanSelfStorageDenmark\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2025-05-09T07:11:25+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/iStock-1158741406-scaled-1.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"3 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/en\/tips-for-people-moving-away-from-home\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/en\/tips-for-people-moving-away-from-home\/\",\"name\":\"Tips for people moving away from home | Pelican Self Storage\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/en\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/en\/tips-for-people-moving-away-from-home\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/en\/tips-for-people-moving-away-from-home\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/iStock-1158741406-scaled-1.jpg\",\"datePublished\":\"2025-05-06T08:48:20+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2025-05-09T07:11:25+00:00\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/en\/tips-for-people-moving-away-from-home\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/en\/tips-for-people-moving-away-from-home\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/en\/tips-for-people-moving-away-from-home\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/iStock-1158741406-scaled-1.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/iStock-1158741406-scaled-1.jpg\"},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/en\/tips-for-people-moving-away-from-home\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/en\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Tips for people moving away from home\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/en\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/pelican.se\/en\/\",\"name\":\"Smarta f\u00f6rr\u00e5dsl\u00f6sningar f\u00f6r dig\",\"description\":\"Lej et opbevaringsrum hos Pelican Self Storage.
