Whether moving across the street or across the country,
moving can be made much easier with a little investigation
and planning. Settling in at the new place will also be
much more efficient with simple planning before moving.
Moving is the perfect time to make a full listing of
everything you own so that you can decide what to sell and
what to give away, what to discard and what to keep. You
might even have enough to plan a garage sale.
if you intend on user a moving company then ask plenty of
questions rates and results. If friends or neighbors have
moved recently you might like to see if they will recommend
a company.
One important topic is truck sizes and availability on the
days you will be moving. Also ask about moving supplies,
like boxes, tape, marking pens, dollies, and packing paper.
One of the most important questions when moving is to
determine to what extent your property is insured against
loss or damage. As for pricing, there may be a major
difference between you packing the boxes and the moving
truck yourself and having those providing the moving
services do all the work.
Other key questions to ask them are:
1) Do they have membership to the American Moving and
Storage Association
2) How long have they been in business?
3) Can they give you referrals?
4) Can they provide a detailed and itemized statement of to
be performed?
Moving companies make their charges based on weight,
distance, and services provided. You should ask if your
quote includes any additional charges for person-hours,
packing materials, travel time, and any waiting time (if
you can't get into the property straight away). Ask what
sort of payment methods the movers will accept and find out
if you need to take out your own insurance.
Before selecting any insurance option, understand whether
you will be reimbursed based on the extent of the damage
and the item's depreciated value, or on your cost to
replace the item. Also, be sure to check your homeowner's
insurance for any moving damage coverage.
