Questions about this kit
What should a household handover binder contain?+
Key contacts (GP, school, insurer, plumber), utility account numbers, direct debits, property details, vehicle info, and a short 'day one' checklist. Our template covers all of these.
Is this the same as a Will?+
No. A household handover binder is a practical operations guide for your family, not a legal document. It works alongside your Will, which handles the distribution of assets.
Can I use it while I'm still alive?+
Absolutely, many people use it during illness, travel, or when a family member suddenly needs to manage the household. It is useful long before it becomes essential.
