change of address

We are moving address but will be staying with our son for 5 weeks in-between houses.
Do I need to change address on log book, insurance and driving licence etc. twice, or could we just wait till we move into our new home. We will have a redirection of mail to our sons and then to our new address.
Seems a big faff to do it twice.
Thanks in advance

    Insurance - call them and ask. They'll need to know your final address anyway in case there's any premium adjustment required (plus admin charge).

    Others - as above you should be OK; mail redirection should make you contactable at a serviceable address as required.

    Will you have access to the previous property in those 5 weeks?
