TIPS FOR MAKING A SUCCESSFUL MOVE

·      A few weeks before moving date, get a moving file and calendar for just this purpose, keeping all documents relating to the sale and buy in the files, who to contact for utility turn ons, mortgage or lease contracts
·      Out-of-season clothes can be vacuum sealed and go directly into storage area in your new home
·      Keep sandwich bags handy for small items, e.g. screws for a bed frame or flat-screen and tape the bag to the back of the item, labeling them in case they get separated
·      Stack Styrofoam plates between each dish; put glasses inside clean socks
·      Organize packing boxes using colored duct tape for different rooms they items are going in to
·      Make a box of supplies including paper towels, trash bags, staples, a box cutter, screwdrivers and any other supplies that may help with unpacking and setting up.
·      Replace older items before the move, whether it is a small kitchen appliance or old mattress
·      Prepare a “Survival Kit,”  with clothes and toiletries for the “day after”

 

PALM BEACH KNOWS HOW TO TAKE CARE OF ITS OWN



With New Year’s Eve parties providing gala evenings, security of the best kind was put into place at seven Palm Beach sites, using a dozen volunteer police officers.  The officers were paid out of the $70/per hour funds from the party givers, with any leftover money going to the town .  Officers are paid time and a half to provide special police detailing.  Their 66 hours of security and traffic control brought the town about $4600.

 

Some private clubs and restaurants were covered.  All policemen were on call in the event of problems.  The Community Relations Coordinator said that the Police Department covered nearly 100 private events and parties in 2014 and had about 250 requests. Barges were on the Intracoastal Waterway to set off fireworks, and the marine unit was available to keep boaters away from the barges.
