I know that wrinkle on your forehead gets even deeper when that moment of an otherwise wonderful adventure comes – moving. While moving into a new home is should be pretty exciting because of all the new furniture you’ll buy, the wall painting you’ll do, the arrangement and the decorations, the actual moving of your stuff from one place to another is everything but exciting and interesting. It’s exhausting, boring, and quite nagging because lets face it – you’re not exactly the most organized person, and that procedure is long and extensive. So, to put an end to all these problems, a good option to consider is to hire commercial movers – the experts for making moving a process that instead of giving you a headache, will put a smile on your face.
Now for the harder part; you can’t just type “commercial movers” in your search browser and call the first one that comes up; that’s simply irresponsible in regards to your furniture, your belongings and your pocket. Don’t rush into it, consider a few things first.
Talk to people for recommendations
A word-of-mouth advertisement is the best advertisement you can actually rely on. Talk to friends, neighbours, co-workers and anyone you know that can give you a detailed recommendation on reliable commercial movers. Not just because you need to get a quality service, but because you’ll need to let these people in your house and allow them to enter every room in order to give you an estimate – not exactly a good idea if the movers aren’t reliable and certified. So, make sure the word is good and solid.
Choose three companies and devote to them
Once you choose the top three companies, do a thorough research on them: their name, address, phone number, e-mail address and practically every ID information you come across. These information should all be available in a register centre for moving companies which is your ultimate proof that you can relax and trust the one you hire. Don’t be shy, pick up the phone of the registered institution that gives this kind of info, and ask. Better safe than sorry, right?
Set up appointments
The next thing to do is contact the chosen companies. Do a little witty chit-chatting on the phone, or even pay them a visit to get the first impression of the type of people you’ll be letting in your home. Look for signs of professionalism, kindness and clean talk on prices, procedure and time-frame. Then, set up an appointment with each to get an estimate. Do not overlook the estimate part; it’s important if you don’t want to end up feeling ripped off. At this point, the movers will come to your home and your job is to make sure they look at every room and everything that’s inside that needs to be moved. That way you’ll get an estimate that won’t be too different from what will happen on the actual day of the moving.
Finally, choose the one that suits your needs
Of course you’re not going to choose the most expensive one that offers the same service! You would go for that company that offers a professional approach to the job, won’t bill you like it came to pick your belongings with an airplane and will do an overall good and clean job without damaging any of your stuff.
