Full-Service Moving Companies & Cost

If you’re facing a long-distance move, one of the best ways to alleviate the stress and hustle of the process is to hire a long-distance, full-service moving company. It’s easy to scoff at the idea of hiring movers—we all like to save a buck or two when we can—but sometimes it gets lost in the shuffle just how easy a movingcompany can make the transition, as well as how affordable it can be. Believe it or not, there are affordable long-distance moving companies that can get you moved and settled at a comparable cost as if you were to do it yourself.

Long Distance Full Service Moving Companies & What They Do

Some of the services provided by long-distance full-service moving companies are obvious. At the very least, any long-distance moving company you hire should move your furniture and boxes into the truck, drive to your new home, and unload everything for you at a reasonable cost. However, a full-service mover can offer a lot more than that. Anything from providing supplies like boxes, bubble wrap, and packing tape to helping you pack, and disassemble furniture, and offer storage services if needed—these are all services that a full end-to-end movingcompany is capable of providing. They can even help you with the transport of appliances and furniture placement in your new home, all of which add up to less work for you and an easier transition as you handle the less labor-intensive aspects of relocating. Some long-distance moving companies (this one included) can even help you with vehicle shipping if you need a car shipped along with your household items at an affordable cost.

How To Prepare For a Full-Service Moving Company & Cost

Preparing for services for a full-service move is simple, considering the long-distance movers will be handling the bulk of the work. That doesn’t mean that no preparation services are required, as you still have to make sure things are ready to go when they arrive. Cleaning services the house before long-distance movers arrive is a good idea for a couple of reasons. Number one, there will be less clutter to deal with when they are moving, services dressers and couches around corners and through hallways, making the process itself run more smoothly. Secondly, it will save you time when you have to do services and more thorough cleaning after the house or apartment is empty, which is required on almost every lease, rental agreement, or home sale.

Another phase of moving preparation that can be very useful in minimizing cost is to get rid of any excess, whether that means simply de-cluttering your home, or getting rid of things, including furniture, that you don’t use before the mover comes. If you’re downsizing to a smaller living space, it’s even more pertinent that you take steps to be ready for the change. The two easiest ways of accomplishing this, which most people are aware of, is to have a garage sale to get rid of the excess and then donate anything left over that’s unnecessary to a charitable organization such as the Salvation Army or Goodwill. Remember that yard sales and donations do take time too so give yourself enough wiggle room to do what’s needed; another good reason to have a game plan and a moving checklist to help keep your service move organized.

There are a lot of options for auto transport these days, which surprisingly makes it harder to find a good company. I received more than 10 offers to ship my car, but I couldn’t decide on any of them... Fortunately, I made the right choice with A1 Auto Transport.
