Setup or Transfer Utilities
You can call the utilities companies at any time. Tell them you are moving and that you need the utilities transferred into (or out of) your name on the date of the closing of your house.
*If you have an investment property: ask about getting set up as a landlord; this may save you having to pay reactivation fees every time your tenant moves out.
