Moving Interstate? Change of Address Checklist!

The most common complaint when moving interstate?

Over the years, we’ve helped thousands of customers when they are moving interstate. You have enough to worry about when you are moving your life and possessions across the country so we aim to take the stress out of your big move however we can. As cheap removalists we can get you a great price and our reliability and attention to detail is second to none in the moving containers industry. Inevitably though, with so much to organise, you’re bound to forget to do something. After a quick survey of our past customers we discovered that the most common complaint when moving interstate, was forgetting to change all your addresses! Tax office, electoral roll, and drivers license were frequently cited as most commonly forgotten.

We decided to help you - our valued customer - we would compile a checklist you can print off and use so you don’t forget anything and stay organised for your move interstate.

For ease of use we have divided the organisations you may need to change your address with, into sections so you can quickly assess if they are relevant to you. Once you have changed an address you can simply tick it off the list.
