If you manage to choose the right moving company whether local or long distance that suits your needs, it will solve the majority of your relocation issues at the very beginning. There is a fine line between a stress-free relocation and a chaotic transition where everything seems to be rushed and out of order. The right movers can be that line for you. But, how do you choose the right ones? How do you know how and what to choose? To be able to choose the right movers, you need to know what questions to ask them. Here are the questions that will help you the most.
Are You Licensed?
Whether or not you directly ask them this question, you should check their license number (which can be done online easily). The last thing you want to do is deal with rogue movers without a license.
How “Old” Is the Company?
The number of years the company has been in business can tell you a lot about their experience with the clients. Relocation companies wouldn’t stay in business for long if they are not of good quality.
Do We Get an In-House Estimate?
If you want to plan your moving budget, but also know if the movers will rip you off, a moving estimate is an absolute must. In-house estimates are the safest option since that is the best (if not the only) way to get an as close an estimate to the actual cost as possible.
How Will You Protect Our Belongings?
When you ask this question, you can demand a more detailed answer. Also, see what kind of insurance coverage they provide if you need to secure your fragile belongings.
