Tool Kit

Another big purchase you’ll want to make when you move into your home is a high-quality tool kit. While some of you may love to buy new tools but for others, it’s nothing but annoying. In truth, having a full set of tools will ensure that you are able to fix simple problems yourself such as installing furniture that may be delivered or any decor without having to make any emergency trips to the hardware store late at night. Believe me, I’ve been there! Some basic things you’ll want to get are a hammer, duct tape, nails and screws, wire cutter, tape measure, and a flashlight. 

Yard Supplies

Depending on if you moved into a new home or apartment, if you have a yard, you’ll need supplies to maintain it. A few essentials to purchase right away are a rake, lawnmower, shovel, hoses and weed wacker. If you love to put in your very own garden, you’ll need a few more tools to help you such as a wheelbarrow, sprinkler, garden hoe, gloves and garden shears. A good spray attachment is also a good multi-functional for watering your plants, power washing your garage floor or even washing your car when the weather is nice. If you are in a climate where you get snow, investing in a proper snowblower ( although an expensive purchase ) can really help you save time getting out of your home and to work on time. 

Filing System

While this may seem like something to put on the back burner, it is important to have as many papers that come through to your new home will pile up. If you already have a system in place, this is something that will come in handy. You might toss important documents, manuals, statements or warranties out if you don’t have an easily accessible area to put them in. Your best bet is to have a drawer in a cabinet or purchase a small filing storage bin for any home-related documents that come to you and your family.
