Long distance moving prices can be significantly reduced if you have enough knowledge of the industry and the way it works. By reserving early, selecting the right company and properly preparing for the relocation and storage process, you will be able to significantly cut down on you costs. Read on to find out how.

Learning More about Long Distance Moving Prices

Understand how you potential movers work. Do they charge by weight or space? What is the basic charge unit they are applying in order to calculate the price for your move? How much will they be charging for packing and packing materials? What other possible fees should you be taking into consideration? Answering all the above questions will help in making cost-effective choices. Make sure that all the information appears in writing on each and every estimate you receive.

Long Distance Moving Estimates and How to Compare them

The three things you should be comparing are reputation, the basic charge unit and possible added fees. A company that doesn’t care about its reputation is more than likely to increase your price. Never consider companies that do not have an impeccable reputation.

Things you Need to Check Before Making your Final Decision

Make sure that you have trimmed down your long distance moving inventory as much as possible. Because long distance moving is calculated according to weight or space, cutting down your inventory can significantly lower your moving costs. If you need storage service, you should be aware of the fact that some moving and relocation companies offer one month of free storage for their long distance customers. Alpha Moving and Storage offers its long distance customers up to one month of free storage in its Jersey City, NJ headquarters.

    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!
