Who to Notify of Your Move to Newport News

With your moving day just weeks away, your life seems to go by in fast forward mode as you're completing important relocation tasks. Such tasks may include contacting our Virginia moving company to help you move into your new home, scheduling an installation for a new home security system, making final payments on the new home, and so on. But at the top of the list, you should include changing your address with various places of importance. Not doing so can lead to a delay in mail delivery as well as home services. Our Newport News movers can go into further detail about who to notify of your move to Newport News.

The Local Post Office

Of course, the one of the first places to notify of your move to Newport News should be the local post office. Head down to the post office in your zip code to fill out a “change of address” form in person or go online to the USPS site [1] to update your address from home. This process will allow mail to be forwarded to the new address for up to 12 months, giving you more than enough time to update your address with other places of importance. When updating your address, make sure to do so a week or two before your moving day to ensure recent mail will be forwarded to the new address.

SSA

Do you receive benefits or letters from the Social Security Administration? If so, change your address using your personal my Social Security account online or give them a call at (800) 772-1213 about a week or two before moving to Newport News.

Utility Companies

No one wants to move into a new home without gas, electricity, or water. Therefore, contact the appropriate utility companies about two weeks in advance. Schedule a service cancellation for the old residence to prevent extra charges after moving out. Then, schedule a service activation for the new home to ensure utilities will be active once you move in.

Your Boss

Sure, you may receive your paychecks via direct deposit like most people, but your employer is one of the places to notify of your move to Newport News. How else will they be able to mail new tax forms or paystubs needed for other circumstances?

Friends & Family

Out of all the places to notify of your move to Newport News, your loved ones should be next on the list. Share your new address with them so they can enter it into GPS apps like Google Maps and Waze to pay you a visit or mail your gifts and other important items.
