What all do I need to do prior to moving out?

If you would like a leasing agent to walk through the apartment to ensure the total amount of your deposit, you must schedule a move out inspection appointment prior to your move out day.

Moving out Checklist

1) To cancel or transfer service for your utilities, call

OG&E: 405-272-9741

Southwestern Bell: 1-800-464-7928

Cox Communications: 405-600-8282

Oklahoma Natural Gas: 405-321-3300

You are responsible for all utility charges through the date on which your keys are returned to the leasing office.

2) Make sure your apartment is clean.  When you are ready for your move out inspection, come into the office.  A list of cleaning charges is available at the office.  Please make sure these areas are clean to protect your security deposit from deductions.

3) Return all apartment keys, mail, and laundry/pool key.  Remember that the laundry/pool key and mail box key costs $50 if not returned.  Place all your keys in an envelope with your apartment number on the envelope and seal it.  After-hour keys may be returned through the leasing office night drop located on the front door. Also be sure we have your forwarding address for deposit return.

4) Give the post office your forwarding address (forms are available in the leasing office), so that your mail can be sent to your new address.

5) To avoid landscaping damage charges, make sure that your moving helpers do not park any vehicles on the grass.  Moving vans must not block roadways.

6) You must move out on or before the date that your lease is up.  Please notify the office regarding any delays.  A new resident will be assigned to your apartment.  Delays may result in additional charges including rent lost, additional rent, or cost of temporary housing for the new resident.

7) Your security deposit will be returned to you by mail within 4-6 weeks of your move out date.  Only one check can be issued per apartment.  Please be sure that the leasing office has the correct payable party and address mailing address.
