Okay so I completed my first year in Japan, still know nothing but survival Japanese and just applied for my first actual Japanese apartment. Will get a result in a handful of days but for once I would like to plan on how to move out and move in. So far I know the following ;
-gotta clean the hell out of my old apartment. (Knowing I’ll get some complaint at some point of some random damage or stain I left)
-I have to inform the city hall I’m moving out and where I’m going. And inform the new city hall I’m moving in.
-get services somehow for light, water, gas and internet. (What are the best foreign friendly ones? [help] are there options??)
-buy survival appliances (bed, stove, fridge and maybe washing machine)
What I don’t know;
-do I have to tell my bank I’m moving to “switch home branch” ? (Not jpost)
-I have to inform anyone else other than my job and city hall I’m moving? (I guess similar to the above)
-what are the options to move stuff around like; stuff purchased from either secondhand, yodobashi, etc.. to get furniture into a 3rd floor apartment without an elevator? (I’ve tried google and Facebook marketplace but have been unsuccessful to find something that covers my area to the northern side of Tokyo)
Thanks beforehand to any suggestions, advice and constructive comments.
Please help I’m freaking out, I didn’t know the moving process happened so fast and I suck at planning.
