Moving into a new home is exciting… and also slightly chaotic. One minute you're admiring your beautiful new kitchen, and the next you're eating cereal with a measuring cup because you can't find your bowls. We've all been there.

At Hometown Hello, we meet Utah families right as they’re unpacking their lives in Eagle Mountain, Saratoga Springs, Herriman, Spanish Fork, and beyond. And trust us — we see exactly what new homeowners are searching for, stressing over, and spending money on in those first few weeks.

Here are the services they look for immediately after the moving truck pulls away:

1. Cleaning Services

A home may look clean on move-in day… until sunlight hits the baseboards. New residents often book a deep clean or recurring service within the first week because, well, moving is messy.

2. HVAC Technicians

Utah weather doesn’t mess around. Neither do furnaces that make mysterious noises. Heating, cooling, tune-ups — homeowners want someone reliable they can call right away.

3. Pest Control

Utah spiders: fast, bold, and unsettlingly confident. Enough said. Pest control is one of the hottest requests from new residents.

4. Auto Services

Registration, emissions, repairs, new tires — families are settling into their commute and want dependable help close to home.

5. Hair Stylists & Barbers

Finding a new stylist is basically dating. New homeowners want someone local they can trust… and someone who’s great with kids is always a bonus.

6. Restaurants

Boxes everywhere. The oven is decorative. Pizza is life. Local restaurants who show up early often become the go-to family spot.

7. Gyms & Wellness Providers

Once the dust settles, families crave routine again — a place to work out, unwind, or get a little “me time.” These businesses see a big boost from new movers.

8. Home Services

Plumbers, electricians, landscapers, painters — all hands on deck. New residents want trustworthy pros to help make their house feel like home.

Why This Matters for Local Utah Businesses

New homeowners aren’t casually browsing. They’re actively looking for the exact services you offer, and they’re ready to build long-term relationships with businesses they trust.

That’s where Hometown Hello comes in.

We hand-deliver welcome baskets to new families every month — creating a warm, personal introduction between homeowners and the local businesses they’re already searching for. No algorithms. No online ads. Just real connection.

When your business shows up at the perfect moment, you don’t just gain a customer.
You gain a neighbor.
