• Buy a file to store all the documentation and paperwork associated with the move.
• If you haven't got a moving company yet, GET ONE!
• If you need to move vehicles, pets or specialist items and you need outside help start sorting it out now.
• If you need to use storage facilities look at your option and book it.
• Make a list of everyone you need to notify of your change of address.
• Start contacting key financial providers suck as your bank or other institutions to have your details changed and to start up the process of cancelling/setting up automatic payments and/or accoutns etc.
