Moving to or from an apartment in Malaysia can be an exciting steps. Apartment rules and regulations are something that we have to abide, and there’s no running away from it! Navigating through various regulations, permits, and procedures can be a daunting task. If you don’t know what to do, let us tell you on what to prepare if you’re living in a service apartment, residential building or condominium.
- Permission for house moving – Approval form
Most residential/apartments in Malaysia require tenants or owners to obtain prior approval from the management before moving in. Most of the apartment will require you to submit a form 3-5 days before. Make sure that you check with your apartment’s management for any specific paperwork or forms you need to fill out. You might need to coordinate with the building’s management to reserve the lift and avoid delays or inconveniences.
- Security deposit & insurance
Some apartments may require tenants to pay a refundable security deposit to cover any damages caused during the move. In addition to that, It is best to check with your management it there’s any insurance required for the move. Alternatively, if you are hiring a mover, you could always purchase the additional coverage for peace of mind.
- Moving hours
All apartments have limited time, this is to minimize the disruption of other residents. Mostly, their allowed time to move is between 9-5pm, thus it is very vital to arrange your time wisely. Moving outside of these times may require special approval and could come with additional charges.
- Parking arrangement
Parking spaces for moving trucks and vehicles are another essential aspect of the moving process. In some cases, the management has reserved a designated specific parking spaces/loading bay for moving purposes. Make sure you understand the parking regulations and inform your movers to make a necessary arrangement of time to ensure a smooth moving day.
