Moving Checklist
So you've found the house of your dreams, the contracts have been exchanged and you have the keys in your hand. Have you let everyone know you've moved?
We've put together a checklist below to help you check. Some of the items on the list may not be relevant to you, or you may have other organisations to add to the list yourself, but you can Print (Ctrl+P) the list and tick off each organisation if you've notified them.
You should also notify the Council of your change of address. Please see our Notifying the Council section or our online Change of Address form.
