Get a Better Moving Experience with Your Mover
Working side by side with your mover, in an organized way, can ensure that you will experience a stress-free move. It goes without saying that this will be possible only if you’ve selected a reputable company and made sure that it has local headquarters in your area. But once you’ve made sure that the company you chose is indeed a reputable one, a lot of the rest depends on you.
The accuracy of the information you provide your moving service provider and your cooperation can make all the difference between a successful and an unsuccessful move.
Providing Correct Information and Updates
Inventory, packing needs, and access issues are the three main areas you will need to provide careful information about.
Any inventory changes should be immediately reported to your relocation service provider. Such fluctuations can actually change the final price of the move and reporting them in advance can assist you in avoiding unwanted surprises.
The same is true regarding packing needs. If you initially indicated to your movers that you will do the packing yourself and ended up wanting them to do some packing for you, be sure to let them know about it in advance.
Access and Delivery Information
Make sure you research and find out if the delivery point has access difficulties or if there are any special requirements that the movers will need to follow.
Your relocation company needs to know about elevators, flights of stairs, time restrictions, certificates of insurance and any other relevant access issues.
As a general rule, the more accurate the information you provide your movers, the better will your relocation be. The best way to go is to update your mover both by phone and email so you can have a written documentation of the communication.
