You Have Options For Your Move With Top Notch Movers!
Did you know you have custom options for your move? Most people don’t know that they can pick and choose services offered by a moving company like Top Notch Movers. When hiring a moving company, ask these questions when planning the move.
- How busy are you?
- How much time do you have?
- How naturally organized are you, or will the boxes arrive in complete disarray if you pack them for yourself?
- What about your partner, family members, or other responsibilities?
For 2023, experts are predicting that moving DIY-style will be up by 25% compared to 2022. This is due to several factors including the fact that more people are moving during the pandemic and there is a preference for doing moving tasks without professional movers. As moving DIY-style continues to gain popularity, Top Notch Movers offers resources such as packing tips and moving advice to help make moving simpler and more efficient.
Most people tend to pack and move. Yet others have no idea where to start. Everyone has particular talents and circumstances that determine whether or not DIY moving or professional movers are necessary.
Here are several aspects of a move. This determines if professional movers are needed or if solo assistance is enough.
Packing Speed During The Move
Top Notch Movers packs with speed, precision, and professionalism as one of many options for your move. There are times when the clock is ticking and people do not have time to pack. They are relocating remotely, physically cannot pack for themselves, or would rather delegate. Depending on the time crunch or what is available, professional movers can make this problem disappear in just a couple of days of dedicated work.
Moving Box Labels & Organizations
Inventory organization is extremely important during a move. The order and size of packing boxes determine the ease of unpacking. The items that go into particular packing boxes need to be the appropriate type. Professional packing saves time and creates less stress. Each box is neatly labeled with the contents and sorted by room or purpose. Tackling a DIY move means also tackling this organization.
Scheduling Your Move
Another big hassle of the move is scheduling. From the arrival of the moving truck, the availability of the house, the arrival of friends and family, etc., all pieces need to flow on time and seamlessly. If everyone does not arrive together, or in a complimentary cascade, then hassle occurs. DIY moves are the most likely to have people arriving long before (or too long after) the moving truck. A professional moving company handles the schedule for you. All you need to do is get the car to the new house in time to meet the truck, and movers will help you plan your road trip or flight accordingly.
Stress Level During The Move
Stress naturally runs high during any move, especially for DIY moves where customers oversee everything. It is hard enough to get family and personal items to a new home, much less the contents of an entire house. Professional movers take a lot of that stress off by taking over the most stressful tasks such as packing, loading, and driving the truck on schedule.
Furniture Assembly/Disassembly
Furniture and equipment are a huge part of the moving process and as one of many options for move. Many pieces require disassembly, padding, and secure placement on the moving truck. Many people do not know how to take apart their furniture and put it back together in their new home or office. Professional movers do. Assembly and disassembly services are part of a full-service moving package.
Loading/Unloading the Moving Truck
Loading or unloading a moving truck is not a small feat. It is not a fast or easy task. First-time movers often lose a day or more by underestimating how long it will take to load the truck, including rest breaks. Professional movers have training in moving an entire home of worldly possessions and stacking them into the back of a truck.
And don’t forget to secure items to the moving truck. Even DIY moves need someone to check the ropes on your secured boxes so that nothing tumbles tragically while on the road.
Driving the Moving Truck
Driving the moving truck is the final challenge for many DIY movers. For most, a rental may be the first and only time they drive a cargo vehicle without a rear-view mirror. Even those who pack and load a truck themselves may hire a professional driver, and why a full-service moving company provides a local or long-distance driver for the truck. This is a large vehicle holding all your household furniture and goods. If you are not confident at the wheel, leave it to a professional with a guarantee.
