As you settle into your new home, there are just certain things you don’t want to concern yourself with. If you’re happy with your phone carrier and you like your phone number, the last thing you want to do is deal with the process of changing your phone to a local area code and re-sharing it with all your contacts. If you’re moving out of state, consider Google Voice, a free phone management service from Google.

Not to be confused as a mobile carrier, Google Voice allows anyone to get a phone number with any area code, and forward these calls to wherever you want. For example, say you want a local area code but don’t want to change your carrier or switch from the phone number you have. You can create a free number with the area code you want and set it to forward to your current mobile number. This means that your friends and family back home can still call your current mobile number, and your new coworkers or friends can call your local number and have it all reach you at the same place.

Google Voice also ensures that no matter where you go, your Google phone number will never change. And Google’s service comes with plenty of other benefits such call screening, free text messaging, SMS to email, international calling, a mobile app, and more!
