Being aware of the necessary preparations for local moving and creating a detailed list of tasks for the relocation, can save you both time and money. It can also help you experience a more relaxed, stress-free local relocation experience.
This Alpha Moving and Storage post explored some of the essential preparations you should do for your local move.
Before Contacting your Local Mover
Start working on your inventory list before contacting your local mover. Going room by room and writing all the items to be moved, will assist you in getting rid of unnecessary stuff, make more educated decisions about packing and provide your relocation company with accurate information.
It can also actually reduce the cost of the move, as you’ll get rid of unnecessary items and allow the movers to complete the relocation in less time.
Contacting your Local Mover
Ideally, you should contact your local mover about six to eight weeks before the moving date. Provide the relocation company with the detailed inventory you’ve created and make decisions about packing. If you’re in need of storage, be sure to inquire about long and short term storage options.
Scheduling your Local Move
About four weeks before your actual moving date, you should contact your mover to set up the date and the time. By that time, you should also make all the other relevant decisions such as whether you would like the movers to pack for you and what items you should leave behind. Of course, Alpha Moving and Storage is also able to perform last minute moving services. Please contact one of our relocation consultants for further information about last minute moving.

I recently hired Alpha Moving to help a family member move from a 3rd-floor walk-up in Brooklyn to New Jersey, and I couldn't be more impressed with … More their service. The team was punctual, professional, and showed exceptional care for both the Brooklyn apartment and the New Jersey home. They took extra precautions to protect the walls and floors, which we really appreciated.
