Are you digging out facts and clues for conducting successful moves? Are you apprehensive of your forthcoming move, which is about to take place in a month? Have you ever conducted relocations before? What is the one thing that is bothering you the most ahead of your move this time? Is it about finding the right team of professional packers and movers for your coming move or about finalizing a reliable car transporter for your valuable four-wheeler? Well, in this article we have answered some of the most asked questions by customers who are on their journey of relocating homes or are about to plan one, shortly.
We hope you also get to pick up some advice or get answers to some of the questions you have been dealing with extensively! So, grab your notepad or move planner and note down the cues that you find here, with the answers provided with the questions.
Share some tips to find and book a qualified company for the move.
If you have never relocated homes and have never really undergone the process of reviewing moving deals and shortlisting options, you must know that it is not just about that. You must get in touch with people who you think can help you in the process and also with your quest for finding an authentic, reputed mover. If you have friends and colleagues whom you reach out to for guidance and help, do ask them. You can reach out to anybody who you think has prior experience of the subject. Also, perform some amount of research on your end so you are aware of all the essential aspects like the red flags in relocation, pricing of moving services, additional costs, insurance, delivery slot, packing guidelines, etc.
Read reviews, and check out what people have shared about a particular company before you go ahead and book it. Always read the terms mentioned in the contract papers and also every other important clause before you accept the deal and sign the papers.
Do I need to hire a different transporter to ship my car?
Regardless of whether you decide to move your four-wheeler locally or plan to move it to a far-off distance, you would need to ascertain if the company you are hiring for the transportation of car is qualified enough to handle and execute the task safely. Inspect the moving company you have booked for your move thoroughly to know the services they have in their portfolio so that you get to understand how they will handle your move and what you can expect from them.
If you want to hire a new transporter for your vehicle, you can do that too but be sure you do a deep research and compare multiple options before shortlisting a transporter. Enquire about the safety measures they would assure your car while getting it transported. Speak about the insurance policy as well and ask about the additional charges that you might need to pay for the move.
How to pack specialty articles for the move?
When handling fragile items for the move, you should always focus on adequate packaging and cushioning because only when both of them are in place, can you expect the complete wellbeing of your goods.
Make sure you know:
• Every article we own may not be sensitive but there would be a fairly big section of items that would require special packaging owing to their nature and built. All of these items should be segregated and attended separately and securely packed in sturdy packages.
• We may not realize but the process we follow to fulfill our house packing tasks depends on the kind of packaging we provide for our belongings. A well-packed article survives all the upheavals of the moving journey, no matter how challenging they are. So, prioritize on quality packing of your goods – especially the flimsy ones by investing in strong boxes and corrugated cartons.
Can we use original cartons to pack sensitive articles?
Yes, of course! Using original cartons to attend the fine and flimsy articles is recommended advice by professionals and should be assimilated in a move, without any qualms! If you own a few of them, that’s great but if you do not have any, you can arrange them at your end from the market or get them from the movers as well. The moving professionals would provide you with the best suitable resources, whether it is sturdy packaging boxes for your specialty articles or cushioned blankets to prepare your furniture and other varnished goods and flimsy articles.
What to do when moving on a minimal budget and dealing with a storage shortage?
When you have a low budget and you have decided not to spend overtime on your move, you will have to curtail on a lot of aspects – including the services you choose and the kind of packing materials you put in for the process. Also, with a specified budget, paying for the costly storage services would be a hassle because storage services (whether home-storage or personal storage), would seem expensive. So, you should either balance your outlays by cutting down your moving load or by smartly choosing budgeted movers and moving in the off-season.
How to prepare for the move simplistically?
Preparing goods and the self for conducting a move is all about organization and time management. Until you calculate the time that you would allot to each of your to-do tasks, you will not be able to work on them correctly. Because there would be a few chores that would be complicated as hell and call for an extraordinary approach and more effort, and some fairly manageable tasks that would be easy to attend and would not call for any distinct handling approach or resource. You should be aware of each of those tasks so you can attend to them accordingly, without going wrong with any process. But to be able to execute the entire task seamlessly, we would recommend smart and early planning.
We hope you found this questionnaire useful to prepare for your forthcoming move!
