Re-directing postal mail - old house to new house locally ?

Re-directing postal mail - old house to new house locally ?

Postby Paul1000 » Sat Jun 10, 2023 8:43 am

Hi,
I am moving house locally shortly, does anyone have any experience or advice about having the mail redirected please?. This was very straight forward in the UK but here I am struggling to find out if Correos provide such a service ?.
I have searched the correos website and this forum but cant find anything recent that covers this topic.
Thank you.

Only had a quick look but it looks expensive, can you not just inform everybody of new address but check the post for a while at old address.

Only looked at the first page and it's almost that for a month here, as I say didn't look for longer period.

So, for future reference for other forum users... it costs €43 for 1 month, €65 for 2 months or €85 for 6 months.
For peace of mind and to give oneself time to change address with all and sundry it seems reasonably priced to me.
Thanks to chrisdee for the initial correos link.

I moved locally last year. As redirection costs seemed expensive I hired a post box in the correos office for 3 months which I think cost somewhere in the region of 35 euros. It then gave me time to notify change of address to all concerned.
