Learn How To Hire The Right Plumbers For Your Next Move

Tips To Hire The Right Movers For Your Next Big Move

3/5/2018

Moving can be complicated, but it doesn't have to be. If you're renting or moving into your recently purchased home, you want your move to go as smoothly as possible.

As you may imagine, we've heard our share of moving stories from our customers, so we wanted to dedicate a blog post to "moving tips" that can help you on your next move.

Keep track of the boxes and items placed in them. The more organized you are, the easier it will be.
Number all boxes and write the name of the room they belong to on them. This will help the movers place the boxes in the right rooms, making it easier for you to unpack.
Don't pay in advance. Pay when the items have been delivered and are safe in their final destination.
Make sure you're hiring certified movers. Ask for documentation and make sure you have a contract signed.
Make sure the moving company is insured. You want them to feel and be responsible for any damages.
Get references on your movers; no matter how nice they may seem.
Never sign a blank contract. Make sure all details are listed and all parties are in agreement.
Take picture of your items before they are packed, in the boxes, and finally, as you're opening them. Document everything.
Report any problems. You have 9 months to report problems to the moving company and file an insurance claim. The moving company has 30 days to acknowledge the receipt of your claim, and 120 days to deny your claim or make an offer.
Do your research and don't let anyone take advantage of you.

We hope you found this useful and wish you luck on your upcoming move.

My wife and I are thinking of hiring movers for our upcoming move, so I appreciated the tips you gave. My favorite tip you gave was that I should ask for references no matter what. How many references do you suggest I get to verify a mover's reputation?

Before choosing any services just keep in mind that they are providing durable storage boxes which suits all your items and you are hiring the certified movers and don't forget to check their documentation and details about the company as they are not charging you any hidden costs and don't pay in advance and pay them after your luggage is delivered successfully and do a proper research is a successful mantra for hiring the proficient movers and packers.

After packing your items make a list and click picture of those items, and after the move match the things and if any item's missing. Call the movers and ask them about it to get that item back.

When moving, you may focus more on packing before you get your big furniture ready. Ask for quotes from several moving companies to ensure you get the cheapest deal and you understand the time and costs well in advance.

Moving from one place to another is very tough because lifting heavy items by own is not an easy task to do. So hiring long distance movers for relocation will turn everything right without damaging your furniture.

I love your tip about not paying in advance. That makes sense considering you want to pay only when your stuff has been moved. If we ever move, I'll have to get some movers to haul all the heavy stuff.

I liked that you said that one benefit of hiring movers to help you move your belongings into a new home is that they will help you keep track of your boxes. I would imagine that moving could get messy and confusing. I would be sure to hire professionals to help me stay organized during this process.

I like how you suggest to number all the boxes and write the name of the room they belong to them when you are moving. My sister will move to a new apartment and she does not know what to do to move all her stuff to the new place. I will recommend her to hire a professional company so that she can do other stuff.
