Mail redirection

Whether you’re new to the area or you’ve just moved house, it’s important to let people know where you are. The best way to do this is to either stop in at an Australia Post office or visit the Australia Post website.

Australia Post can forward your mail to your new address and notify companies you choose to inform of your new location.
