Letting People Know

One of your first assignments when you move is to collect a stack of change-of-address cards from the post office. You’ll want to notify everyone in your address book, including the following individuals and offices:

Accountant
Attorney
Credit card companies
Church clubs and organizations
Dentist
Insurance company
Internet Service Provider (ISP)
Magazine subscriptions
Physician
Social Security Administration
Stockbroker
Voter registration

The post office will forward first-class mail for one year, but if you want parcels and publications forwarded you must agree to pay additional postage.

Be sure the buyer of your home has your new address and, if you know it, your new phone number, so any mail that gets lost in the shuffle can be sent on to you promptly.
