Save Money with These 4 Move-in Tips

Home Improvement | By Jen Benvenuto | 4 Likes

Moving into a new home can be overwhelming. From cleaning to unpacking, your to-do list seems never-ending. However, it’s important to set aside time to walk through the below checklist. Completing these simple tasks as soon as possible can help you save big money in the future.

Lightbulb filament

Install LED light bulbs
Although they’re more costly than regular bulbs, LED lights can save you a lot of money and energy use in the long run. Consider installing them in places where the lights might be left on for a long time—the kitchen, living room, closet, and basement. It’s a simple change that can save you big bucks.

 

Wooden clothespins hanging from a line

Hang a clothes rack
Purchase a portable drying rack, and place it in either your laundry room or basement. The more clothes that you allow to air-dry, the less you have to run your dryer, ultimately lowering your electric bill.

 

Shelving unit above baseboard

Unblock your air vents
After putting the furniture in your new house, take a quick look around to see if any of your new pieces are blocking the vents. Obstructed vents can cause inadequate airflow. Giving your vents room to breathe not only keeps your system from working overtime, but also reduces your electric bill.

 

Keys inside door lock

Make spare keys
Yes, you know that you need to change the locks, but did you think of making spare keys? Doing so will eliminate the need to pay for a locksmith when keys are lost.
