It is a well known fact that moving should be planned and scheduled in advance. The more time you have to plan your move and select your moving service provider, the better. However, it is also well known that life is full of surprises and one cannot always foresee the unexpected turn of events that will require a last minute move.

In this Alpha Moving and Storage post, we will examine some tips that will assist you to conduct a last minute move and avoid unexpected charges.

Getting an Estimate for a Last Minute Move

The fact that you need to move last minute does not mean that you do not need to be thorough with getting your estimate. The last thing you want to do is to fall into the hands of the wrong mover when you need to move in just a few days. Stick to the reputable companies that have a good BBB rating and can provide you with references.

Also, make sure all terms and conditions are explained to you clearly and are presented to you in detail and in writing. Remember, having to move last minute is a delicate situation and you do not want to be relying on a disreputable mover when you need to be relocated urgently.

Last Minute Packing

Alpha Moving and Storage can provide you with last minute packing services. Even if you reserve your last minute move only a day or two in advance, our trucks have a supply store that allows our movers to perform last minute full packing services.

For more information about last minute packing and last minute moving services, feel free to call an Alpha Moving and Storage representative at any time.

    My husband and I have used Alpha for two moves—once from Manhattan to Jersey City and more recently from Jersey City to the Jersey Shore.
    The first move
    … More was during Covid, but Alpha was super diligent and professional. The second move was on an incredibly hot and humid day, and our movers still worked so hard and fast.
    For our second move, we also had to put our items in storage for a few weeks. Alpha made this super easy and had a thorough system for taking inventory of all our furniture and boxes.
    I can't say enough about how great Alpha is. We would use them again and recommend them to anyone. Their office employees are very responsive and helpful, and the movers are extremely skilled and professional.
    I've also found their prices to be much more reasonable than other companies in the area.
