In the good old days, people used to look for moving companies in the yellow pages. Nowadays, people go online to search for their relocation company. Each basic search will offer you with dozens and dozens of results. But how can you tell the difference between legitimate movers and shady business that decided to open an internet page? This new Alpha Moving and Storage article will help you answer this question.

Doing Your Online Search for Movers the Right Way

Your initial internet search should be specific rather than general. For example, if you are searching for movers in the NJ area, type “NJ Movers” in the search box. Trying broad and general search terms such as “Moving Companies” will provide you with a large number of irrelevant results.

Selecting Movers to Receive your Initial Estimates From

Once you have conducted your initial search, it is time to select between three to five moving service providers. Check the individual websites of the most suitable results. Make sure that each of the companies has all the proper license numbers and is registered with the Better Business Bureau.

Carefully Comparing Moving Company Prices and Reputation

Because anyone can start an internet web page, comparing prices and reputation is possibly the most crucial stage. Each company should provide you with a written estimate. It is highly important to request each mover to send a representative to your house and provide you with an on-location estimate. This is especially true when you locate your potential movers via the internet. Additionally, you can coordinate a visit to the company’s main offices. Ask your estimator to be present and show you the trucks, facilities and storage area.

    Alpha was fantastic! Leading up to the move, they communicated well and were very accommodating when we needed to change our move date, add additional items, … More etc. On the day of the move, the 4-man crew was prompt and worked quickly and diligently to disassemble and wrap furniture and load all our possessions onto their large truck with care. We had many heavy boxes and bins, several of which were located in a basement down a narrow staircase. The crew had a great attitude and asked questions when necessary. Compared to other moving companies, Alpha was more reasonably priced and well worth it. I would enthusiastically recommend Alpha for any local moving needs!
