Changing Your Address – Friends & Family
Notifying the postal service about your change of address is just the beginning of an ever seemingly endless list of people and places with which you must remember to update your address.
Obviously your closest friends and family know that you’ve moved, likely because they helped you lug your heavy boxes and furniture from your old place to your new one. But what about the rest of your friends and family, those you only hear from around the holidays?
A simple postcard will do the trick.
There are dozens of online printing sites where you can design or pick your own card, upload your address book, and they will mail them out for you. One of my favorite sites for designing your own is Overnight Prints. It is fast, simple, and relatively inexpensive when you factor in the time and cost it would take you to do it yourself.
If you like to share pictures of yourself or family, have someone take a picture of you or your family standing in front of your new home. Include on the front a simple message like “We’ve Moved” or “123 Main Street, My New Home.” It’s a fun way to show off your new home.
If you happen to move around the holidays, you can kill two birds with one stone with that holiday letter or card.
