How to Choose Your Movers

Do research online and you can also ask a friend, family member, or colleague about a moving company recommendation as searching only on the internet can be a daunting task.

When you begin your search for the perfect moving crew, make sure to look into previous customer experiences. Research their reviews and do online searches to decide if they give good service or they have a long history of dissatisfied customers. Pay attention to how previous customers describe the mover's attitude throughout the moving process and how they handled specific problems. Select the team that has a history of positive experiences with specific customer feedback.

If you hire a moving company based in your local area, you will avoid being fraud into doing business with an unethical mover operating only over the internet.

Ask everything you should know before signing a moving agreement. Some questions to consider are:

• What do you need from us to complete a thorough estimate?
• Will you do a walk-through in advance?
• What's your registration number?
• Are there additional fees?
• What valuation coverage do you offer?
• What all is included in your pricing estimate?
• What is not included in your estimate?
• How many crew members will be assigned on moving day?
• What is your availability?
• How do you handle complaints and claims?

If a company cannot easily answer the questions you ask, they probably are not the team for you.

Make sure you know everything a moving company is asking you to perform. Check the fine print to make sure you can hold the crews responsible for breakages and accidents. Before signing contracts make sure you have already worked out all the details to your satisfaction including the move timing, valuation coverage, and pricing.

This is a very helpful step to learning about your potential moving team. When your family is uprooting and moving to a new place, it is really helpful to have a team that will not only move your belongings, but also offer additional assistance like providing short-term and long-term storage solutions, arranging a personal move coordinator and more. These kinds of additional services can help to make your move stress-free, so you can concentrate on the next exciting chapter of your life.
