  • Your current landlord you will need to give them notice so that you do not owe rent after you move.
  • Electricity Supplier
  • Gas Supplier
  • Water Supplier
  • Telephone company
  • Housing Benefit
  • Council Tax
  • DSS
  • Inland Revenue
  • Television Licence
  • Bank/Building Society
  • Employer
  • DVLA (Driving Licence)
  • School
  • Doctor
  • Dentist
  • You will also need to go to the Post Office and get your post redirected

On the day you move
If you are responsible for your existing electric/gas/water supply you should read the meters in the property you are leaving and phone these through to the gas/electric suppliers

Make sure you leave the property secure and clean and return the keys to your current landlord

At your new home read the meters and let the gas/electric suppliers know so that you don’t get charged for any energy used by anyone else.
