Step 7 PAGURO EASY EXPATRIATION GUIDE - Minus 2 Days

Time is ticking and you need to get ready to leave the country, here is a schedule for the last few weeks that could help setting the priorities.
  • Before the packing crew arrives, empty and defrost refrigerator and freezer, clean them with a disinfectant and let them open several hours to dry, all pans, trays, crispers, shelves, or removable parts should be removed and wrapped individually. Put baking soda or charcoal inside to keep from forming bad odours.
  • Empty your safety deposit box.
  • Plan to take important papers, jewelry, cherished family photos, irreplaceable mementos and vital computer files with you.
  • Arrange in advance for someone to do a house cleaning the day after moving out. Inspect that all clothes and linen are clean (especially children clothes!) ready to be packed. Clothing with food-stains on it can spell disaster when left to mould in a container for 40 or more days.
