Moving in Japan

After getting the keys to out apartment, we went to clean up the apartment before the actual move, to make it easier for us when we move in. Also, we wanted to do a check on the apartment and take not on which parts were already scratched or damaged before we moved in.


After cleaning, we stopped by at Saizeriya to grab dinner before heading back home.


heehee, in our attempt to be healthy, we ordered 2 plates of vegetables to go along with out main meat dish. J had the steak while I had the hamburg. I always get the hamburg at family restaurants.


Other than cleaning the apartment, we also had to change our address. 


On a separate day, we went to change our address and then went to grab breakfast at Royal Host. 


What's left is the actual move now.


We used Sakai for our move and as you can see here, the first that they do when they enter you place is to lay our the floor matts and to cover the walls so as not to scratch them.


Then they will count the boxes and hang up your clothes from the closet for the move. They will also put your shoes in their shoes box. After that, you will see the boxes disappear quickly from the apartment as the staffs carry 3 boxes each round.


Good bye to the moldy cabinet in my room. While I have cleaned out the mold, you can see that it is still damp as it rained before. Every time it rains, this part will get wet, which is why it got moldy. And unless, the crack on the wall, or the waterproofing gets fixed, the cabinet will always be damp.


My empty bedroom.


The empty kitchen.


The other empty room.

We actually came back a week after our move to clean up the place further. This apartment was sparkly clean when we returned the keys to the owner in person. Even though we had cleaned it thoroughly, the owner did say that the cleaning cost has already been charged to us so there is no need for us to clean the apartment. Oh well, I feel that it is still good for us to return the place in prime state.
