How do I prepare for moving into my new apartment?

Preparing for your move starts with confirming your tenancy, paying the required amounts & arranging a suitable arrival time. We will give you a digital move-in guide with the details for your particular development.

Your move-in checklist

  • Check that all named tenants have signed the tenancy agreement.
  • Confirm your agreed start date, apartment reference & check-in appointment.
  • Pay the tenancy deposit & first rent instalment using the verified instructions.
  • Arrange removals & ask about loading, lift access or large deliveries.
  • Prepare photographic identification for the person collecting the keys.
  • Check how to set up electricity, heating, water & broadband for your apartment.
  • Read the building access & fire safety guidance before arrival.

For English apartments, any rent payment must follow signing by both parties. Deposit limits & protection also apply. Docklands Living in Dublin follows Irish deposit & tenancy rules.

If you need accessible check-in arrangements or help carrying out a particular step, tell us early. You can also review the apartment listing for features & floor plans while planning furniture.
