These items are a must-have for your apartment.
Moving into a new apartment is always exciting, as you can customize your space and enjoy living independently. However, proper planning is the only way to ensure you have everything. What are some of the must-haves for your new apartment?
A Great Toolkit
While you can always call maintenance for your apartment needs, there are plenty of things that you want to take care of around your apartment on your own. That’s why a great tool kit should be part of your checklist for your new apartment. Make sure that any toolkit you purchase contains the following:
- Wall hooks
- A hammer
- Nails
- A tape measure
- A leveler
- Pliers
- Screwdrivers
- An adjustable wrench
If you can get a toolkit with even more than just these essentials, that’s great. Additionally, if your new furniture comes with any Allen wrenches or equipment to assemble it, keep them in a safe place so that you can use them again if necessary.
Eating Good
Whether you are an amateur cook or learning to cook for the first time in your new apartment, there are some essentials that you will always want to have on hand. These include:
- A toaster
- A coffee pot
- Plates
- Bowls
- Silverware
- Glasses
- A can opener
- A frying pan
- A saucepan
- Knives
- Cutting boards
- Spatulas
- Measuring spoons and measuring cups
- Scissors
- Vegetable peeler
- Dish towels
- Garbage bags
- Paper towels
- Dish soap and dishwasher pods
- Essential pantry items, like canned goods and bread
- Basic spices, like salt, pepper, and garlic powder
Bathroom Essentials
It’s a good idea to make sure that you pack your bathroom essentials in a place where they are easily accessible, as you will probably want to use them before some of the other things that you pack away. When moving to your new apartment, make sure that you have the following on hand:
- Toilet paper
- Bath towels
- Washcloths
- Hand towels
- A shower curtain
- Bath mats
- Toilet brush
- Toilet cleaner
- Plunger

Label your boxes to know where everything is on a moving day.
