5 Tips For Making The Best of Your Calgary Professional Movers
Moving into a new home is a life changing experience, but it can also come with its own unique challenges and stresses. Whether you’re moving long distance or just across town, a relocation requires a lot of work and planning.
Professional movers can be a huge help because they can do all the heavy lifting for you, including packing up your belongings and transporting them to your new home.
However, preparation is key to ensure that your move won’t take any longer than it needs to and to keep your costs down. Here are just a few simple tips on how to get the best out of your experience with the movers.
-
Understand What Movers Can and Cannot Move. Professional movers won’t move everything. Many relocation companies have a list of items they won’t transport due to safety reasons such as chemicals or paints. For liability reasons, they may not move items such as cash, pets, medicine or important papers. Finding out what your movers will and won’t move beforehand will save you a great deal of frustration on the day.
-
Have a Plan for Packing Up. Before the big moving day, determine if you or your movers will be responsible for packing and unpacking. If you’re in charge, make sure to use bubble wrap and blankets for padding to ensure nothing breaks. Also label your boxes so it’s easier to keep track of them.
-
Always have insurance. Whether or not you choose to use your moving company’s insurance services, always make sure that your belongings are financially protected. Accidents can and do happen during relocations, so it’s best to have a security blanket in case one of your valuables gets damaged or lost along the way.
-
Offer your movers snacks and drinks. Professional movers often have packed schedules, especially during the summertime, so they might not have a lot of time to take a lunch break. Make sure you have refreshments on hand such as energy bars and bottles of water or sports drinks to offer them.
-
Keep cash for tips. Anyway you look at it, moving is a very tough job, so have some cash on hand to show your movers how much you appreciate their hard work. This is especially true if they do a thorough and quick job of moving and taking care of your belongings.
