The day of your move is all about getting you out of one house and into the new one – if you’ve hired a company, all you’ll need do is oversee them, or stay out of their way entirely.  If you haven’t, its important to have some strong family members and friends on hand to help you shift everything into your van.
Empty one room at a time, and ensure the cupboards (if they are walk in) are also empty – once its done, sweep, mop or vacuum, and do one final pickup then close the door.  Make it clear to the others helping you that sealed rooms are finished with, so that people aren’t trailing dirt into rooms that are finished and clean.

Moving day itself will probably pass in a  blur, so its important to try to savor your final moments in the house you’re leaving.  You’ll probably have many memories, good and bad, there, and full closure on that period in your life is important, so that you can move on.

You’ll want to keep a couple of boxes, or bags spare and on hand so that you can catch anything that you’ve missed, that’s been knocked into a corner, or essentials that you’ve kept out for the move – the latter should be marked clearly so that you can find them at the other end.

Keeping your kettle, mugs, coffee, tea, toiletries and baby supplies (if you’ve got a small child) separate from your packed belongings might be a good idea, as is keeping any essential work, moving, utility or ID documents in a safe place during your move.  The latter will ensure that they don’t accidentally go astray, or are placed somewhere that you can’t find them.

You should take a final meter reading, and where appropriate, shut down any water, electricity or gas supplies if no one is going to be in the house for a few days after you.

There are many options to choose from when choosing among gulf shores condos. In fact, the options are so many and so varied, it helps to have a very clear view of what you want to do and accomplish in the Gulf Shore area before doing any research on gulf shore condos and certainly before making a reservation. Here are some things to consider:

1.    Who Will Be Joining You On Vacation?

Family vacations are very different from romantic getaways, and many families prefer to stay in gulf shores condos near kid-friendly attractions like zoos, water parks and nature reserves. On the other hand, if you’re taking a romantic interlude with your significant other, you may wish to rent a gulf shores condo that is farther away from such attractions and where fewer children are likely to be staying.

2.     What Kind Of Vacationer Are You?

If you like to spend every waking minute of your trip actively pursuing recreation, then you will need to be sure that your gulf shores condo rental offers or at least is in close proximity to convenient transportation, entertainment and possibly jetski rentals or deep-sea fishing operations. On the other hand, if you prefer a laid-back, day-long siesta in the sun with a cool beverage at hand and the gentle sound of the waves in the distance, you probably should book a gulf shore condo that is a little more off the beaten track.

3.    How Long Will You Be Staying?

Many property owners are willing to give you major discounts on gulf shores condo rentals if you are staying a month or longer in the area. If you plan to spend the winter in Gulf Shores, for example, make sure to ask about special rates on extended stays.

4.    When Do You Like To Get Up?

If you’re an early riser, then you won’t mind your gulf shore condo being located on the ground level, where the noise from morning activities can be a little invasive. On the other hand, if you like to sleep late, be sure to request an upper level condo.

Over the last several years I have observed a spike in the number of tickets been written for what is commonly referred to as “expired touring privileges”.  It is no secret that in some states, the requirements for obtaining a valid driver’s license are substantially less than in New Jersey.  It is my understanding that in North Carolina and Tennessee as little as your name on a utility bill will suffice as proof of residency.  In contrast, the Motor Vehicle Commission in New Jersey requires 6 points of proof which may consist of amongst other things a prior New Jersey Driver’s license, utility bill, passport and most importantly proof that you are legally in the country in order to obtain a driver’s license.

A New Jersey resident may rely upon his or her touring privileges to drive in this State for the first 60 days after he or she becomes a resident. The use of touring privileges during this time is intended to give a new resident the opportunity to apply for a New Jersey license. After that time, if the driver has not procured a New Jersey license, he or she is technically unlicensed and may not lawfully drive under a license issued by the jurisdiction where he or she used to reside. Once the new resident has qualified for a New Jersey driver’s license, he or she must surrender a driver’s license issued by any other state or jurisdiction to the Motor Vehicle Commission.

Typically an illegal immigrant driving in New Jersey gets stopped for a routine traffic violation.  After being asked to present their “license, registration and insurance” the officer is handed an out of state license.  The officer than asks “do you live in New Jersey and if so how long”?  Being fearful of the situation they have now found themselves in, the common answer  is six months to one year.  Generally, there is no requirement that a driver in this situation incriminate themselves by answering the question.  However, if a driver answers the question, they must answer truthfully.

A trained lawyer may be able to successfully defend a driver faced with being charged with expired touring privileges. For example they may be able to argue that there was no probable cause for the stop or, if a driver can prove that they spend time in both states than they may not have a problem.  While in this author’s opinion, the court does not have the authority to confiscate a driver’s license more and more courts are doing so.  Therefore it is critical that competent counsel with expertise in this field of law be retained as soon as possible.
