Here’s How to Choose the Right Mover
Moving
can be one big headache. You need to pack your entire life into cardboard
boxes, trust complete strangers to handle your belongings, and put everything
back together again a few days later. Worst of all, it costs a lot of money.
With so much to do, it’s tempting to turn to the Internet and just choose the
first company that you see. But if you do, you may end up running into problems
like paying more than the original estimate or valuable belongings disappearing
into thin air. Why make things more difficult than it should be? Here are 7
easy things you can do to make the big move go as smoothly as possible.
1 1) Get a proper estimate
The
most important aspect in moving is the estimate. With that in mind, you want to
make sure that you contact moving companies that have offices in your area so
that you can ask for an on-site estimate. Why not get an estimate over the
phone? Two reasons. One, the price you pay should be based on the amount of
labor it takes to move your belongings. Movers wouldn’t know how much stuff you
have unless they physically come to your house and inspect all your belongings,
right? Two, a written estimate is more binding than one that was conveyed over
a phone. The written estimate can be used as evidence if anything goes wrong,
so make sure that the following are included in the paperwork: company
letterhead, exact number of boxes and other belongings, costs for supplies,
additional costs encountered during the transport such as tolls, signature of
mover, and the basic contact information for the company.
Once
you’ve collected a few estimates, it’s time to compare. Remember that the
lowest estimate is not always the best choice. If you think it’s too good to be
true, trust your instincts because that company may be trying to scam you. If
any of the terms have changed (for example, you made the ridiculous decision to
place a grand piano in the living room), alert the company and have them send a
revised written estimate.
When
you’ve finally decided on a moving company, make sure that you are not signing
any incomplete paperwork. The company may add ridiculous terms and fees to the
estimate later on without notifying you of the changes.
2 2) Provide accurate information
One
reason that moving companies add additional costs to the final price is because
of unexpected bumps along the process. I mean, who wants to be told last minute
that they have to carry the queen size bed frame up four flights of stairs? To
avoid the drama, trace the steps that will be taken from your current home to
your new home. List every possible barrier that may cause extra trouble for the
movers and give that list to the movers when obtaining an estimate. Not sure
what sort of obstacles to look out for? If moving to or from a building, are
there elevators available? If the building only has stairs, what floor are the
rooms on? Does the furniture fit through the doorways? Just imagine how your
belongings will be moved and take note of anything that the movers might want
to know beforehand.
3 3) Check qualifications/credibility
Let’s
just say you get wrongly accused of a crime. Would you want to leave your fate
in the hands of someone who didn’t even go to law school? Same thing goes for
moving. You wouldn’t want to hand all your belongings to someone who doesn’t
have the proper qualifications. So when getting an estimate, ask for the
license number and insurance policy number of the company. Perform a quick
background check on the internet to confirm that the license number is valid
and the insurance policy is in effect. While you’re at it, check that the
information provided by the company matches the information that you find on
the internet. Did they provide you with the correct telephone number? What
about the local address? If a company is giving out multiple phone numbers or
you find that the provided address points to a worn-down warehouse on Google
maps, you should probably move on to a different company.
4 4) Ask for payment methods
Nobody
likes paying taxes and some dishonest people will do anything to avoid paying
more or to avoid the prying eyes of the government. If the company insists that
you make the payment in cash up front, there is a good chance that they are
doing some shady business. Make sure to confirm the payment methods when asking
for an estimate.
5 5) Check their tools
If
the movers are loading your furniture into a rental truck, you might as well
kiss goodbye to saving money and maybe even to your valuables. A reputable
company will have their own fleet of trucks with the company logo permanently
imprinted on the sides of the trucks. The best way to avoid the big surprise on
move-in day is to visit the local office and inspect their trucks.
6 6) Have an inventory list
The
majority of complaints in moving come from lost or damaged goods. To avoid any
lawsuits over liability issues (and not to mention the heartbroken feeling of
losing your valuables), pack and seal the cardboard boxes yourself. This
prevents movers from swiping a few things from your boxes. On move-in day, have
the mover write up and sign off an inventory list of everything you want moved.
Make sure to keep the list so that you can check off each item as the movers
move everything into your new home.
7 7) Know who is doing what
So
you signed the paperwork to have a big, well-established company to help you
move your belongings. But what’s this? A shady rental truck showed up in front
of your home on the day of the move? Believe it or not, even well-known
companies turn to sub-contracting and unfortunately, they sometimes make the
mistake of hiring shady movers as well. So confirm with the company as to who
will be in charge of moving your belongings.
Now
that you know what to do, you can finally start the process of moving out of
your current home. Haven’t decided on a new place? Check out Am Pro Movers

newly launched properties. Once you’ve found the perfect home, use this list to
help you save money and avoid scams on your big move-in day!
