Some people think that finding the best moving companies for long distance relocations has to do only with the final price. However, the companies that provide you with the least expensive estimates will often end up charging you different, much higher prices. In order to avoid finding yourself in such a situation, you need to thoroughly research the companies you are considering and understand exactly how they price their long distance estimates. This article provides some tips that will help you to find the best moving company for your long distance move.
Finding the Best Moving Companies for Long Distance Relocations – Experience and Referrals
First and foremost, you need to make sure any potential long distance moving company you are considering has enough experience in conducting long distance moves. Cheap and inexperienced companies will often give your move to a third-party, which, in turn, will usually cause your price to inflate considerably.
A good way to find a suitable company is to request referrals from friends and relatives who have recently completed a long distance move. Ask potential movers to provide you with references from previous customers.
Finding the Best Moving Companies for Long Distance Relocations – Learning how to find the Best Prices
Finding the best prices has to do more with how to read them than with checking the bottom-line price. Some movers will intentionally lower the estimated weight or space of your move to make the final price appear lower. This is why it is so important to check he basic charge unit per pound or per cubic foot. If this charge unit does not appear on the estimate, request your mover to provide it to you in writing.
