The Value of Home Movers
Beware of dishonest Movers and Moving Companies that may give you lowball long distance rate quotes just to lure you and then substantially increase the actual amount you eventually pay.
They may ask you to pay a lot more after they have taken your possessions. If you get a moving estimate that’s much lower than the rest, be careful. Remember, it doesn’t pay to choose a mover only on the basis of the lowest quote!
Moving on your Own
Pros
Bonding Moment Between Friends – A bonus is the ability to bond with friends during a moving experience. While most people won’t want to help their friends move, it always ends up being fun for everyone involved.
A more Personal Experience – Additionally, it’s a more personal experience. You get to move comfortably by yourself without other people that you don’t know impeding on your own private experience.
Cons
More time Lost – Additionally, even if you aren’t paying for a moving company, you are losing time on the move yourself. Something that could only take half a day for a moving company could take you up to 2 days by yourself. You’re losing money through time.
The risk of Injury – Moving is a dangerous game. All it takes is one misstep, one poorly held box, or one over extension of your body to drastically hurt you. Between broken toes, twisted knees stretched backs and jammed fingers.
Moving with a Company
Guaranteed Safety – Additionally, you have less work to do and you won’t be doing any of the heavy lifting yourself. This means that you have a much higher chance of being safe and comfortable during your move than if you were to do it yourself!
All-In-One Experience – Additionally, when you hire movers, you have someone that is doing everything you need! We will give you the truck and the movers and pack everything for you!
Time and Safety or Money
If you want to invest more time into your move to save some money, then doing it on your own is for you. But remember that it’s more than money, it’s about safety and speed as well.
You’re already buying a truck, hire a moving company too.
