Readings:
Take all meter readings on move-out day — dated photos; submit to providers.
Termination notice:
Written notice to each provider (water, gas, electricity, heat, garbage) — with final readings.
Handover act:
For a rented flat — handover act with readings and equipment state, signed with the landlord.
Equipment:
Meters stay; heating appliances, your debts do not automatically transfer to the new resident.
New contracts:
At the new address: contract applications, account registration, readings submission.
Registration:
Changing the registered address affects norms and subsidies — re-register in advance.
Debts:
Debt stays with you even after selling the flat — close it or arrange restructuring.
Checklist:
Readings → notices → acts → new contracts → registration → check the first bill.
