Moving houses is stressful enough as it is – but the pain doesn’t end when the final box is unpacked.

Changing your address across several different organisations claims an average of 15 hours. This is where SlothMove comes in, promising to save these 15 hours of your life and cut it down to a teeny five minutes.

Charting new waters, this Sheffield-based startup is the only address change and home setup service in the UK and can provide updates across HMRC, DVLA, the NHS, and hundreds of other organisations.

SlothMove has helped over 75,000 people move homes to date and are rated ‘Excellent’ on Trustpilot, with customers applauding how convenient and stress-free the process is

What’s more, it can also provide you with your new council, water, and sewage provider based on your new postcode. You can easily let them know you’re moving in via the click of a button with SlothMove and let your previous providers know you’re moving on.

The startup might have started out with no funding. But through creating partnerships, developing integrations and years of investment into the change of address process, SlothMove has been able to bring its technology to market with huge results.

What is SlothMove’s next move? The company projects that its service will help facilitate 40% of all new home purchases and rentals in the UK, helping 1.2 million people each year.

Plus, whilst the tech mover and shaker currently only deals with address changes, the plan is to develop further solutions to help customers manage their home and communications. Watch this space!
