When it comes time to move, there is usually a flurry of activity. It can be an exciting time, even emotional. Many people choose to hire residential movers. Dallas is a busy metropolis, so there are always people coming and going. Moving companies know this, and compete strongly for business. The customer’s goal, first, is to find residential movers with a solid reputation for getting things done. Finding the right fit may not be as difficult as some people might think. There is a reason that some companies stand out from their competitors.
They provide the following:
- Free estimate
- Contact person
- Valuation coverage
- Help packing/unpacking and loading/unloading
- Storage options, long-term and short-term
- And more
The good companies will also visit in person before a single item is ever moved. They will conduct a thorough survey and give a free estimate. This eliminates any misunderstandings that might arise further down the line. They will also spend quality time with a customer answering questions and tailoring a moving plan that fits that person.
Conduct Additional Research
Customers, however, have the option to even look for further proof that a moving agency is the right fit. It is easy to check with family members, friends, or business colleagues. Does anyone have any negative experiences to share? Does the agency belong to any local, professional organizations like the Better Business Bureau? Does the agency maintain a website that provides testimonials or in-depth information about their full line of services? If the company can answer “yes” to the above questions, the customer is off to a good start.
Once the move is complete, it is a good thing knowing that secure storage, 24/7, is available if needed. Storage can be long-term or short-term. A full service moving agency’s storage facilities will be clean and well-maintained.
Get Prepared
Moving day will not be far off, so get prepared. Make sure there is a list of all items so they can be checked off one by one. Your residential movers can also advise about what items can, or cannot, be packed for the move.
