When should I schedule my move-out request?
Typically, the first available move-out date will be at least one working day from the current date. The move-out date you select must be a company work date which typically excludes weekends and holidays. The online move-out form presents a calendar, which shows non-work dates as non- selectable. Additionally, a particular date might not be selectable if the company work schedule is already full for that date.
Be sure to verify that you will not need service on the date that you are requesting the shut off since the service could be shut off in the morning. If electricity will still be needed, you might want to change the shut-off date to the next business day.
