Moving premises

Ideally you should contact us at least 30 days before you move because you remain responsible for the energy supply to the premises and all costs associated with it until you go through our change of tenancy process.

Please note that it will take up to 30 days to process your change of tenancy request and we can only process the change if you have provided one of the following documents: 

•  A solicitor’s letter confirming details of the move in or out of the property
• A certified lease or tenancy agreement
• A copy of your business rates from the council if you are moving in
• A copy of your business rates final invoice from the council if you are moving out
• A copy of Land Registry title (TR1)

The outgoing tenant, will remain responsible for the energy supply to the premises, and all costs associated with it, until this process has been completed.

Business rates when moving premises

Remember, you'll also want to contact your local council to ensure your business rates are charged correctly when moving premises. Avoid business rates on an empty property by following the steps in our guide.
