Moving home

There is so much to organise in just packing for the move that often things are over-looked. You will need to notify the council and other organisations that you’re moving, but don't notify anyone of your change of address until the contracts have been exchanged, as the sale can still fall through leaving you to contact everyone again.

Help with what you need to do when you move both before and after the big day can be found on the DirectGov website.
