Moving, always
involves a lot of hassle, stress, and of course expenses. To add to the
anxiety, you find plenty of companies that say they will offer you the best
deals in town. Therefore, it becomes extremely important for you to know
precisely what are your needs and requirements so that you are not in the wrong
hands. This blog’s aim is to help you in finding the perfect movers and packers by giving a few
valuable tips that will help you steer your choices.
First and
foremost, you need not rush into finalising a moving company just because you see a fancy advertisement. Avoid
relying solely on advertisements that talk about always being on time, highly
skilled and professional packers and movers,
etc. Before the final deal is made, it is extremely vital you note down the
names and contact numbers of at least five companies. This helps you enquire
the rates and compare them with the other companies.
Once you have
finalised the company and their prices, ask them to give you an estimate. Keep
in mind, that you call them home, and not do it over the phone. Understand
their package deals completely, while making sure of all the additional costs
you may have to undertake. For instance, extra expenses if they are to cover a
certain distance; or if the goods are over a certain weight.
Confirm with them whether
they provide insurance. You could probably ask them general questions, like what
happens if the goods are broken during transportation, under what all circumstances
will they be accountable, and for how much. You could also find out whether the
relocation company has special tools
and equipment to help make the move smooth and convenient.
As soon as you are
done with the above, get a signed contract that involves the costs, the pick-up
and delivery dates, along with their additional services if any. In any case,
do not make final payment unless all your goods are delivered and a follow up
has been done in case of damage.
