Shared Home Utility Provider Switch Template

Switching utility providers in a shared home can save hundreds per year — but it requires coordination. One person usually handles the research, but the decision and cost impact everyone. This template makes it a team effort.

Sections include: current provider details and contract end dates, comparison of at least three alternative providers, estimated savings per month and per person, who will be the named account holder, how setup costs will be split, and a timeline for the switch.

Fill it out together at a house meeting. Everyone should understand what's changing, when, and what they need to do (like setting up new direct debits).

Once the switch is complete, update your shared expense tracker in HomeCo with the new amounts and payment schedule. Keeping financial records current prevents confusion when bills arrive.
