I'm moving city and my new work is putting me up in a serviced apartment for 4 weeks. I move out of my rented flat today and after 4 weeks should have found somewhere to live and will move into that. In the meantime, i am not sure what to do about my address. For example:

- should i put a royal mail redirect to serviced apartment? What happens when i move? Should i get a po box short term?
- do i need to change address on banks, driving licence, etc etc or can that wait?

Any ideas?

Can't you redirect to your workplace?

The redirects aren't foolproof btw. in fact last time I did one I think the "success" rate was 50%.

I'd go for a PO Box if I were you.
