Be prepared. Blakeney property and casualty insurance does not cover damage or loss to your personal belongings. The Apartments at Blakeney requires that you provide proof of insurance PRIOR to moving in. Our leasing office can provide you with additional information.

The Lease - It's Official

Many find moving day less hectic if the lease/paperwork is completed prior to your move-in date. This will allow you time to review and be clear on all the material before you move in. Just call the office at (704) 714-4788, arrange to have your lease prepared, and we'll have it ready for your signature in advance of your move.

Contact a moving company or reserve a moving truck (allow 2-4 weeks notice in the summer).

Notify the Blakeney office of your moving date: (704) 714-4788 or blakeney@crosland.com

Moving Tips...

Label boxes (i.e., kitchen - glasses, living room - lamps)
Use smaller boxes for heavier objects (i.e., books, computers)
List/inventory all boxes and keep a copy in a safe place
Pack fridge/freezer items in a cooler(s)
Obtain supplies: bubble wrap (may be purchased from a moving company) is best when packing china, glass, etc. (Newspaper tends to stain).

Moving Day...

Schedule and confirm a planned starting time with those who are moving you.

Assign someone to check-off boxes as they are delivered.

Prepare a simple meal ahead of time or have extra money to eat in/order out.
