How to Take the Stress Out of Moving?
If you are in the early stages of moving, then you need to read our moving company tips that may just help you survive your move with your sanity still intact.
Getting the utilities up and running by moving day
Make sure that you transfer the utilities before you close escrow, otherwise, you may be spending a weekend without electricity and water. As the likes of gas, water, and electricity can often take a few days and several weeks to get them up and running. So, schedule the transfer as soon as you know the day that you are moving in.
Hire movers as soon as you know what your closing date is
Movers will often be booked months in advance. So if you are planning on hiring a moving company, hire one the second you know what day you will close escrow.
Never allow movers to just squeeze you in
If a moving company you have contacted has already booked another client on your moving day, look elsewhere.
Reserve movers’ earliest time slot in the day
If you are hiring movers, try to book the earliest morning time slot that they have available. This ensures that the moving crew is fresh so they will get the job done faster and do a better job. This is especially true in the summer months when movers are slotted for up to 5 or 6 jobs in a day. If your loading request is their 5th move, even if you do hire the best crew in town, the chances of them being exhausted is high, which means they will work slower, and may even drop a thing or two.
Hire a moving truck instead of using a mover’s truck
A hired mover that uses its own moving truck can often cost significantly more than it would if you hired a mover and then rented a truck separately. So look into both options carefully if you are looking to save money.
