Don&#8217;t panic! We show you how plus shopping tips to help you save!<\/em><\/center><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Well over 20 million people move each year, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.census.gov\/library\/stories\/2023\/09\/why-people-move.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">census reports<\/a>. And when you move, you have about 20 million things to do! But there\u2019s something that might slip your mind that should actually be at the top of your list. It\u2019s setting up your utilities, including natural gas service. If that sounds like a hassle to you, don\u2019t worry. We make it easy to get you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">natural gas service<\/a> set up in Georgia. Check it out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Choosing Your Natural Gas Service<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In Georgia, the natural gas market is deregulated. To get your gas service set up, you need to sign up with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/companies\">Georgia gas company<\/a>. They&#8217;ll then coordinate your turn-on appointment with <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/companies\/atlanta-gas-light\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Atlanta Gas Light<\/a> (AGL)<\/strong>. They handle the gas lines and pipe network that delivers gas to your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step in choosing your natural gas plan is to shop. Take your time and shop for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/best\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">best natural gas provider<\/a> with the best rate to save money. Make sure you compare all the features of several different plans. Pay attention to the rate, the ETF, the monthly fee, incentives, and what happens at the end of the contract. That last one is important but easy to forget!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end of your natural gas service contract, a company may automatically enroll you in a variable rate or fixed rate plan. With variable, you pay a much higher rate. With a new fixed rate plan, you could get locked into a contract you didn\u2019t pick if you don\u2019t act in time. Make sure you know what\u2019s coming and mark your calendar for the end of the term so you can choose your next natural gas plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, if that all sounds like a lot of work, don\u2019t worry. With Georgia Gas Savings, you can shop and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/natural-gas-rates\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">compare rates<\/a> easily all in one place!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Next Steps for Natural Gas Set Up<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have selected your plan, it\u2019s time for next steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Understand ETFs: <\/strong>if you currently have a fixed rate plan, you don\u2019t have to keep it or pay an early termination fee when you move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Provide Information<\/strong>: give your address and other info to request your new natural gas service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Expect a credit check<\/strong>: your new company checks your credit before starting service. Your score can affect your monthly fee and amount you may pay for a deposit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Contact Providers:<\/strong> if you currently have a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgiagassavings.com\/companies\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">natural gas provider<\/a>, contact them to set up a stop service date. Also set up a start service date with your new provider. You want to do this as early as possible, but at least one week before the date of action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now for some great news: you can take care of all these steps in one place. <strong>Georgia Gas Savings<\/strong> is a one-stop-shop for all your natural gas service needs.
