Setting Up Your Utilities
So you’ve secured a new apartment – congratulations! Now that you’ve signed your lease, it’s time to turn that empty suite into a home. Unless you’re okay with living in the cold, internet-less dark, the first thing you’ll want to do before moving in is set up your utilities. To make your life easier, we’ve put together a comprehensive list of the main utilities suppliers in Vancouver in order to help you settle in a little quicker. Good luck with your move-in!
