Making Relocating Simpler

Infographic - moversjohannesburgMoving from one house to the next, whether it is within the same province or to a new one, is usually a daunting process. You have to pack everything in boxes, load them in vehicles, and then unpack when you reach your new home. If you do this by yourself, you may end up taking more than one day to get everything ready for the new move. However, things become a bit simpler when you use the services of a good moving company. Below are some tips to keep in mind when hiring one.

Avoid Large Down Payments

It is normal for movers to ask for a deposit in order to schedule a date for you. This is mostly the case in the summer when they are very busy. Although there is no red flag in giving a deposit, beware of movers who ask for an unnecessarily higher price. If you encounter a moving company that asks for a large down payment, ask them for the reason and if there is no special purpose, just find another company.

Carry Valuables Separately

Whether it is cash, jewelry, confidential documents, or your precious photographs, you definitely don’t want them to fall in the wrong hands or get misplaced. It is, therefore, advisable to carry these things separately.

Always Keep Your Phone On

Ensure that your phone is fully charged during the moving day. This is especially important because the mover needs to reach you by phone during the move to inform you of their progress as well as any changes in the delivery schedule. Also make sure to know the driver and take his full name, ID and the truck number. Feel free to communicate with them frequently to know their progress.

Ask Any Questions

Is there a pressing question that you feel you should ask the movers? Is there something that you don’t understand in the entire moving process? Feel free to ask the movers anything including the total costs and insurance covers. The moving industry has terminologies that are difficult to grasp if you aren’t in the industry, so make sure to ask about them before beginning the move.

Moving with a professional company alleviates the stress that’s associated with house relocation. However not every mover that you see takes a professional approach in its operations. If you’re at a dilemma on the company to choose, why not use this moving company? Not only do they have friendly and knowledgeable staff, but they are also professional throughout the moving process. In fact, they can be easily reached by phone on 212 714 0177.
