What You Need To Know When Moving

amomentwithfranca · 21 September 2016 · 1 Comment

Let’s consider a situation – you have bought a new flat, house or villa and every time you think about it, an interesting question arises: how to properly arrange moving so as not to face any difficulties, and how to make it as quick as possible. What is worth remembering before moving?

Moving without a hassle: what you need to know when choosing a company

What You Need To Know When Moving

Make sure everything goes without a hitch

First of all, you need to choose the transportation and delivery method depending on where your new location is. If you are looking to move but are not sure where, check the 6 Most Underrated Cities In The U.S.

Following this, you should check the space on stairs, the width of entrances and the proximity of vehicle access to the property. The next step is to contact a moving firm at least two weeks before the scheduled date. You can order not only vans and loaders, but guys such as movers.best can organise everything for you. They’ll pack things how you want and they will guarantee they are completely safe.

Speaking of packing, you should do it properly before transportation. The most affordable thing for this is cardboard boxes. Start packing a few weeks before moving. Think about special packaging for the protection of fragile items. Use large, but transportable boxes. Write where they should be delivered on each of them. Indicate what the boxes contain on their labels so that you won’t have to spend time looking for things. Also, you should pack your boxes carefully when you have precious and fragile items to protect.

Choosing a professional moving company

Choosing a professional company

There are already a lot of specialised companies, armed with all the necessary staff, vehicles, equipment, etc in most places such as man & van in Felixstowe. Which one should you choose? You should assess the following factors:

  • Does the company have its own office?
  • What is the availability and size of their vehicles (one for all occasions or do they have different sizes and specialisations);
  • What is the availability and qualification of the appraiser?
  • How is their reputation? (how long it has been operating? partners list, recommendation letters, customer reviews, etc);
  • What is the range of services? (are they corporate, or home moving specialists, or both?);
  • What is their price level? (not too cheap and not too expensive);
  • Do they have a landline contact number?

You should be able to email or call the company. A good organisation will talk to you politely and attentively, without pressure. A professional company will send someone to your house free of charge to determine the moving cost. If not, choose another company.

Finally, after selecting the company the next step is signing the contract, which details the company’s responsibilities towards the client. Never be in a hurry when signing the contract, it’s necessary to carefully read all documents and ask any questions which may arise.

So if you follow these simple tips, I’m sure your move will go without a hitch!

Are you moving house or offices soon? Are you in the middle of moving already? Are you looking for more information about moving that will make your life hassle-free? What do you think of these tips?
