I will be moving in just over a month, I'm almost packed, Just left out a few things I need day to day but the bulk of it is done. All furniture I'm not taking is already gone, Carpets are lifted up, Currently going around cleaning everything. left out instructions for the heating/boiler, left a note where water meter is. It's a housing association property so no mortgage stuff to sort out etc

Apart from contacting places like the bank/water/electricity/doctors etc to change my address etc is there anything else I need to do before I leave/just after I leave? I have that feeling where I feel like I'm forgetting something!

Sounds like you’re on top of everything. Good luck with the move 😊

Let council tax know? Don’t forget to take readings of electric/gas/water before you leave. Also do a video recording walk through (in case they try and claim damages). I always leave a bottle and a “welcome to your new home” card for the next people coming in.

I had come to say v5 and driving license. Important and easy to miss. I had to change all my bank & credit cards separately as well (even tho e they’re with the same bank 🙄)
if you feel kind & know you could tell them where the stopcock is, they’re often a bugger to find
