   You will usually need first and last month rent along with a security deposit. You also need an account with your local utilities such as the power company and a telephone hook up account. If you have pets and the apartment allows them, you will need a pet deposit.

    A good superintendent.
    No, seriously.

    Moving day is a great chance to see how cooperative that building’s superintendent is.
    Did they pad the elevator ahead of your arrival?
    Most buildings have specific days and/or hours for moving – did the super give you a hard time about any of that?
    Is the super holding the door(s) for your or the movers if they happen to be around at the same time, or letting it slam in your face and theirs?
    It may seem trivial in light of your overall task of moving, but do take heed of your interaction with the super at this point, because it gives you a great idea of what they are like, and sets the tone for your subsequent life in that building.
    As for actual household items, you can’t possibly plan on having every last thing ahead of a move.
    Resign yourself to a future filled with trips to Bed, Bath and Beyond, Container Store, etc…

    Not counting food –
    —————————
    dishwashing detergent
    hand soap
    scouring pad (for the dishes)
    vacuum clean, broom or similar
    those little locky things that keep your kid from getting into cabinets
    ice trays
    vegetable brush
    shampoo
    hairbrush
    toothbrush
    toothpaste
    band-aids
    diapers
    lamps (standing and bedside)
    sofa or futon
    bed
    tv table
    coffee table or something similar
    cable for the TV (coax, which you will need even without cable service!)
    light bulbs (mostly 60 and 100W)
    bookshelves, milk crates, or some kind of modular shelving
    a screwdriver (both regular and phillips head, in a variety of sizes)
    a hammer
    picture hanger nails
    kitchen utensils (knives, forks, spoons, etc.)
    a frying pan
    a ‘dutch oven’ or big pot for boiling stuff in
    kitchen matches (if you have gas stove)
    a flashlight
    plunger
    toilet brush
    cleanser (like comet or that scrubbing bubble stuff)
    shower curtain and rings
    color bleach
    laundry detergent
    anti-staticsheets (like Cling Free or similar)
    crib
    batteries (for TV tuner, etc.)… mostly AAA and AA.
    power strips for your power outlets

    You might check in with your local chamber of commerce office — they might have ‘welcome packs’ for new ‘neighbors’.

    That’s all I can think of off the top of my head.

    Tell everyone you know that you need stuff. Especilly people with long established households. Soon your house will be full too. Shop garage sales and bargin hard. Find out which newspapers have the auction listings for great deals on older large pieces of furniture. When your cost of replacing every thing you’ve put in the appartment reaches 2000 dollars, buy renters insurance.
