You can put this meta tag in the head of the old HTML source code:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="10; URL=http://www.whaterver.org/">

Just substitute www.whaterver.org/ for the new URL.  The 10 in the meta 
tag is the number of seconds the old URL will wait until redirecting the
user to the new URL, and you can adjust that to meet your/your users' needs.
