The Renter’s Move-In & Move-Out Planner — Google Sheets Template

Description

Moving home as a renter comes with admin that generic moving
planners simply don’t cover — deposit protection schemes,
tenancy permissions, check-in inventories, and making sure
you get every penny of your deposit back when you leave.

This planner was designed specifically for renters, by a
qualified interior designer who rents herself.

WHAT’S INCLUDED — 12 TABS
────────────────────────────

✦ Dashboard — live move countdown, progress ring, and
at-a-glance stats that update as you work through the planner

✦ Tenancy & Notice Checklist — notice period tracker,
“ask before you…” permissions log, and deposit protection
scheme details (DPS, TDS, mydeposits)

✦ Budget Tracker — every moving cost in one place, with
estimated vs actual spend and a renter-safe decor pot

✦ Change of Address (UK) — every organisation you need to
notify, from the electoral roll and DVLA to your GP and
TV Licence

✦ Meter Readings & Utilities — take readings the moment
you get your keys and photograph them; set up your
suppliers in one place

✦ Room-by-Room Packing Checklist — pack by room, number
your boxes, note what’s fragile

✦ Move-In Inventory & Condition Log — photograph every
flaw on day one and cross-check the landlord’s report;
this is your evidence

✦ Renter-Safe Decorating List — damage-free ways to make
it feel like home from day one

✦ Furniture & Room Measurements — measure twice, move once;
check the sofa fits before the van arrives

✦ Contacts — everyone from your letting agent to the
Gas Safe engineer in one place

✦ Move-Out & Deposit Return Prep — the tab no other moving
planner includes: a cleaning checklist matched to your
check-in report, move-out admin tracker, and a deposit
return log so you know exactly where you stand

runs itself
