It’s all too common for an illegitimate moving company to offer an attractively low rate. And, as someone who is probably up to their eyeballs in unexpected moving expenses, it’s probably on your mind to take this low offer.
But, it’s important to think clearly here: sure, this moving company may be offering an awesome rate, but it will probably come at the expense of all your worldly possessions. Rogue movers are scamming unsuspecting customers all the time, so it’s best to pay a little extra for moving services in order to invest in trustworthy movers.
While a super cheap price for moving services doesn’t always indicate rogue movers, it certainly does raise a red flag. If a moving company can offer shockingly low rates, it means they’re skimping in some other area. Perhaps it’s a lack of proper training or equipment for their movers, maybe it’s a licensing problem, or maybe they’re not paying their staff a fair wage. Whatever the scenario, you need to protect your things and yourself from liability.
Take it from us. Whether you are moving locally or going from coast to coast, you will want a reputable moving company on your side.
When you’re moving your home or you’re moving the location of your office, one thing is certain: the process is usually a nightmare. The easiest and most recommended way to bring down some of that chaos is to create a comprehensive numbering system for all the boxes you'll pack.
We know, that sounds really complicated. But actually, it's simple: make sure to give all your boxes a number. Write it in huge, bold lettering on several sides of the box so that there's no confusion. When you pack items in a box, write down or make a digital list of everything that's going into the box. When you make several small inventories, you can easily compile them to create a large, full inventory of everything you own.
In this method, you can know exactly where everything is located at all times. Additionally, you will be able to unpack with ease and even remain more organized when you get settled into your new place.
