Finding yourself in your new home (FINALLY!) after a long and energy-draining moving day doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re expected to let your guard down.

On the contrary – the end of the first leg of your relocation journey only marks the start of the second leg – the immediate post-relocation period which, similar to its predecessor, is also filled up to the brim with tasks of all sorts.

The good news here is that you don’t really have a concrete deadline as was the case with your pre-move preparations (the move day, remember?), and that fact alone will let you take care of the jobs ahead at your own comfortable pace.

Before you can start to really settle in, you need to make sure that you update your mailing address so that your regular mail (postcards, letters, magazines and newspapers, bills, and government benefits) continues to reach you without any problems.

But just how to change your address when you move?
