Oh wow, yes — changing your address sounds simple, but there are so many little places where it can go wrong if you forget something. I was in the same boat during my last move: thought I had everything covered, then realized I forgot to update my car registration and missed a renewal notice . Obviously, the USPS change of address form is a must, but you’ll also want to notify your bank, credit card companies, employer, insurance providers, and any subscription services (streaming, meal kits, magazines, etc.). Don’t forget loyalty programs or online retailers you use often — I once had a package go to my old place because of that. I found this change of address checklist when moving super handy ( see more in this guide ) — it breaks everything down into categories and helped me catch a few I would’ve missed. Honestly, having it in front of me made the whole process way less stressful. Highly recommend printing it out and just ticking things off as you go.
