How to prepare for your move - Boston Efficient Movers



Efficient Local Moves

 A local move is any move that is within a single state and under a certain number of miles. Though different moving companies may have varying standards for what they consider a local move, it can range from under 50 miles to under 100 miles. While a local move isn't as complicated or difficult as a long-distance move, there are still plenty of things you need to know about moving locally.




Preparing for a Local Move
Whether you are moving across the street or across the state, you can never begin preparing for your move too soon. The earlier you start getting ready for your move, the easier your move will be. To help you prepare, create a list of all the things you have to do as you transfer from one home to another. The list should include such things as:
  • Choosing a moving company
  • Changing your address
  • Finding medical services in new town
  • Terminating utility service in your old home
  • Getting service set up in your new home

 TIP: Keep this list handy so you can easily add items when you think of them and cross items off as they are taken care of.

Why Choose Efficient Moving Services?
One of the most important things to keep in mind when choosing a mover is to not wait until the last minute. If you don't hire a mover at least a few weeks before the move, you might not be able to reserve one for your moving day. You can find a mover by searching a local business directory, asking friends and relatives if they can recommend a company.

 Tips on choosing your movers
 At Efficient Moving Services we understand that playing fair is very important, and we like to give our customers as much information as possible to make sure they are choosing the company that best fit their needs.
Please read the following tips on how to choose movers:

  1. When you receive an estimate, do some research about current market prices for these services so you can see whether you are offered a fair price or not.
  2. Make sure you get any price estimates and fees for extra services in writing, so you won't be surprised when you receive the final bill.
The estimate will be based on long the moving company thinks it will take to load up, transport, and unload all of your belongings. You may be able to cut costs if your movers will adjust the estimate if the move happens more quickly than expected. By stacking your boxes near the door and disassembling your bed frames, you will decrease the amount of time your movers spend and potential lower your moving costs.
Once you have decided on a mover that you want, you can focus on other things, like finishing up your packing. Make sure they provide you with the time for pickup and delivery as well as any extra costs involved with your move.
