Anything they can use to grill outdoors would be a welcome gift as well. Who wants to cook their first day in a new home? Cute statues, garden stones, birdhouses, and wind chimes are great ways to greet new neighbors. If you are a family member and you know what types of plants they enjoy you could purchase a rose bush or other flowers for them to plant in their lawn. This will give them a more homey feeling than you will believe.
For couples:
Since, they are going to be tired from packing, moving and unpacking a great gift would be a catered meal, or even a gift certificate to a local restaurant. This would give them time to get out and relax after the big move. A gift basket with wine and cheese is also a gift that will be much appreciated. Personalized gifts with their names engraved on any several items are unique gifts. Items such as welcome plaques with “Mr. & Mrs.”, engraved cutting boards, or other household items are usually welcomed and enjoyed.
Other items that are usually overlooked that would be great for house warming gifts are change of address cards, stamps, return address labels with their new address and personalized stationary.
You will find that most any gift will be appreciated and cherished. So, choose something you would like to receive when you moved and you will have found the best gift of all.
