I’m Moving Home – Who Do I Inform?
October 22, 2014
Moving Home
Preparation and thorough research are the basis of any successful move. There is a long list of things to remember, from organising and packing furniture to more monotonous tasks including labelling boxes correctly. While most of the logistics of moving homes can be left to an experienced removals company, informing organisations, companies and individuals of your move is left to you, and is an element of the move which is often overlooked.
While it may seem like a minor detail at the time, the importance of completing this task cannot be emphasised enough; while you might not mind missing out on a few Christmas cards, you could face receiving some hefty utility bills which aren’t intended for you!
