Move-Out Instructions

1. Utilities:
   • Do not turn off utilities. Notify us of your move-out date at least two weeks in advance.
   • Utilities will be transferred to our name through a concierge service on your move-out date.
   • Exceptions:
     • Trash Service: Contact your trash company to cancel service.
     • Sewer Service: If serviced by Bradley Sewer, cancel any auto-payment arrangements directly with the City of Bradley.
     
     
2. Keys and Garage Door Openers:
   • Leave both keys and both garage door openers on the kitchen sink.
   • If using a deadbolt-only system, lock everything and leave one key in the mailbox.
   
   
3. Carpet Cleaning:
   • Do not clean the carpets; our maintenance company handles this to avoid potential issues.
   
   
4. Cleaning:
   • Ensure all appliances, floors, countertops, windows, bathrooms, light fixtures, and the garage are thoroughly cleaned.
   • Properly manage trash disposal over several weeks to avoid an accumulation of garbage on the last day.
   
   
5. Mail and Deliveries:
   • Forward your mail and update your address with delivery services like Amazon or eBay.
   
   
6. Suggestions for Repairs:
   • Leave a list on the kitchen sink of any items that need improvement, repair, or replacement.
   
   
7. Security Deposit:
   • Provide your forwarding address on the same sheet as your repair suggestions.
   • Security deposit accounting will be processed per your lease agreement within 60 days, often sooner.
