Summary

  • Prioritize what you will take with you, including any device that can be unplugged, and what you will leave, including anything wired in.
  • Make a detailed smart home inventory, including installation manuals, and keep it as a reference for setting up your new place.
  • Transfer ownership of anything you’re leaving behind to a dedicated email address, and then factory reset each device.
  • Pack up devices you are taking with you carefully, keeping everything in its original place and making sure to label boxes and bags effectively.
  • When you arrive at your new home, use the same network name and password as your old place, and your devices should reconnect.
