A Positively Moving Experience
Getting Moving Quote – Tips for Saving Money
Getting a moving quote shouldn’t be like a trip to the dentist, where the cost will ultimately
depend on what happens by the time you leave that seat. You will literally have to put your money where your mouth is. Instead, getting a quote for your move should be clear and straightforward – and a whole lot less painful! Moving can be an expensive process, especially when it’s not planned right. But by following certain steps before moving day, you should be able to reduce your overall costs.
When you’re getting moving quotes from different moving companies, be sure to give them as many details as possible about your current and future home, the items to be moved, and any possible obstacles that could factor into the cost. Moving companies
should also send someone to your home/business, so that they can provide a written estimate. Bear in mind, however, that this quote most likely won’t cover additional work that you may want the mover to do on moving day. To help ensure that your move stays within the estimate, one of the things you can do beforehand is to disassemble furniture yourself. This will save on the time that your move will take, and also save you money if you’ve hired a company that charges extra for this service. Make sure that you
know what services are included or not included when you’re getting a moving quote.
One of the things that can also increase your costs is to have the mover provide
the boxes and packing materials. While you’re spending time getting a moving quote, find out what a mover will charge if you end up needing even a little packing material. Most movers will charge you extra for using theirs. Another time and money-saving step that you can take is to pack your own items. Most moving companies will offer packing services, which you should find out when getting a moving quote, but this can add a good deal of money to your moving cost. Although you may be busy, and you may not have a lot of time to pack, remember that if you start well before moving day, the task will be much less overwhelming. As the saying goes – how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time!
