Before we hand over the keys to your new home, please ensure you’ve submitted your security deposit and any applicable move-in fees. These can be submitted through our resident portal<\/a> or by cashier’s check. <\/p>\n

Please also be aware that all households are required to have renter's insurance and a proof of policy for move-in. If you need help securing coverage, feel free to reach out! We can help you navigate this process.<\/p>\n

2. Setting Up Utilities and Services<\/h2>\n

A reminder that water and sewer charges will be added to your monthly rental bill based on consumption. However, please contact the water and electricity providers listed below to ensure these services are ready to use by the time you move into your new apartment!<\/p>\n

Along with these major routes, Coppermine Run provides access to various forms of public transportation, like the Fairfax Connector routes and the Innovation Center Metro Station and Herndon Station are each approximately 1 mile away , which offer easy commutes throughout Northern Virginia.<\/p>\n

You are also minutes away from major shopping and dining destinations like the Herndon ClockTower Shopping Center<\/a>, Worldgate Center<\/a>, and Reston Town Center<\/a>.<\/p>\n
