Write Down Who Sends You Mail

Before you move to a new rental apartment, or a new home that you have purchased, make a list of all the personal mail that you currently receive. Tell your banks, financial institutions, creditors, doctors, and insurance companies that you are moving. Ask them to redirect all correspondence, statements and sensitive mailings to your new address.

Be sure to notify:

Retirement accounts/banking institutions/credit card companies
Utility companies (electric, gas, water, cable, etc.)
Insurance companies (medical, property, renters, fire and auto)
Local government agencies, federal agencies & the IRS
Healthcare providers (your doctor, your dentist, chiropractor, psychologist, psychiatrist)
Schools (schools you attended with an alumni association, schools children go to, correspondence schools, etc.)
Publications to which you subscribe (magazines, newspapers, etc.)
Clubs you have memberships in such as AAA, Civil Air Patrol, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, and others
Church membership roles
Instructors (gym instructors, yoga instructors)

You should also consider switching to receiving online statements. According to the 2010 Identity Fraud Survey Report from Javelin Strategy & Research, consumers with electronic statements needed less time to detect fraud and paid lower consumer costs ($116 vs. $274) than those monitoring paper statements.
