What should be done with old product labels and inventory stock that still show the previous address when relocating premises?

When moving premises with stock still bearing the old address on labels or packaging, members suggest you don't necessarily need to discard it. The practical approach is to **set up a Royal Mail redirect** for the old address to forward any mail to your new location. This allows you to keep and use existing inventory without waste, while ensuring any customer correspondence sent to the old address still reaches you. Members noted this is a straightforward solution that avoids the cost and environmental impact of reprinting or destroying stock.
