Address change or divert mail on moving

Hi, Just a bit of advice please,

Hopefully looking to move in next few weeks to rented accomodation for a few months then move again into our new home when its built, my thinking is that just get mail diverted to the rented house then change address for all our contacts to our new house when or just before we move in? Just this mail divert to a-b-c malarky gets a bit confusing! Or does anybody have a better idea please?

Just don't want to change address twice if you know what I mean.

Loads of things to do and haven't really started yet:o

Any other bit of advice as haven't had to do this before,

Much appreciated.

    Divert is the safest way, for 3 months, then divert again.
    the second 3 months gives you time to contact all who you need to.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.
