Vendor information is provided as a starting point and convenience. Clients remain responsible for interviewing, selecting, hiring and paying vendors.

Utilities and Address Changes

I can help identify what needs to be transferred, started, stopped or updated and organize the appropriate dates. For privacy and account-security reasons, some changes must be completed or authorized directly by the account holder.

Use this checklist to sort each item. Selections stay on your device and are not saved or sent.
