Reducing costs and finding affordable moving solutions is easier if you plan your relocation in advance. Beginning to make your moving plans about six to eight weeks before your moving date will give you enough time to create inventory and packing lists, as well as research and locate an affordable mover. This new Alpha Moving blog post will help you in reducing relocation costs and finding affordable movers.
Finding Affordable Moving Service Solutions – Managing Your Inventory
Making your move more affordable depends not only on your mover, but also on the decisions and plans you make. Creating exhaustive inventory lists is the first thing you should do when making your moving plans. This will help you determine how expensive your move will be. Trimming down the list of items you will be taking can significantly reduce moving costs, especially with long distance moving. Consult with your relocation company regarding your inventory. Sometimes, taking off two bulky items from your inventory can make a significant difference.
Finding Affordable Moving Service Solutions – Coming Up With a Packing Plan
Next, you need to make some decisions about packing. Ideally, professional packing should be done by the movers. However, seeing that full packing services are often costly, you may want to pack some of your items yourself. If you want to cut down on packing costs, our advice is to let the movers pack all delicate, breakable items and electronic equipment, and pack the rest of the items yourself.
When the moving company estimator is in your house, consult with him about your packing decisions. Show the estimator all the items that need packing. He will be able to offer you guidance regarding items best left for the movers to pack and items you can safely pack on your own. Our Alpha Moving and Storage relocation consultants are always happy to offer guidance and information, so be sure to contact us with any questions.
