PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour.

    I'm moving next week too! Second time around and so exciting. I have made a spreadsheet with every company I need to inform, account numbers and telephone numbers so I can tick as they are done.
    Broadband and phone I have pre-booked online to be installed late moving day. Have sorted water online. Van is hired (with ourselves driving). Pretty much living with bare essentials now. As we are selling, I believe we need to take meter readings when we leave as well as when we move in- taking photos is a great idea!

    Hi all, just to piggy back on this thread slightly - this might sound like a stupid question, but how do you know who the current suppliers are?

    Your solicitor should have sent you a copy of propery questionaire completed by the vendor. This contains a lot of usefull information.

    Take a few light bulbs of various fittings with you...I’ve known bulbs to be removed by vendors or dead ones not replaced. You don’t want to be trying to unpack a room by torchlight or moving bulbs around.

    If all else fails, by waiting to see who sends you bills addressed to "the new occupier"!
