Whether you're moving across the country or just across town, you still have to pack everything and go through the process of setting up a new home. However, there may be times in your life when you don't have the time or ability to handle the move by yourself. When that's the case, work with a full-service moving company and let them do all the hard work. Here are times to consider a full-service mover and ways they can help.
1. You Don't Have The Physical Ability to Lift
If you're older or if you have a medical condition that limits your mobility, lifting heavy items to wrap and pack them may not be possible. Even if you're in fairly good shape, you may not have the physical stamina needed to organize and execute a move. You also may not want to impose on family and friends. If you want to remain independent yet get the help you need, hire a full-service moving company.
You can usually choose the services you need so you don't have to pay for things you can do yourself. The movers will pack all your belongings, carry them to the truck, unload them and then unpack them in your new house. This saves you from lifting, stooping, and stretching at a time when your physical abilities are limited.
2. You Have to Move Right Away
While it probably doesn't happen too often, you may find yourself in a situation where you need to move right away to start a new job or for some other important reason. When that happens, you can call a full-service moving company to coordinate your entire move including the cleanup of your house after you move out. Moving companies provide various services, so find a service that can arrange house cleaning, appliance preparation, disassembly, and setup.
3. Your Company Is Paying for Your Move
Since a full-service move costs more than when you pack and handle moving details yourself, you may be reluctant to pay the cost even if it means you're inconvenienced or stressed. If your company is paying for your move, it's a great time to take advantage of a full-service mover so you can have the most relaxing and stress-free move of your life.
When you do all your own packing, you usually have to start weeks in advance and live out of boxes. If you're not an organized person, moving can be a very stressful event. There's not much you have to do when you use a full-service mover, and that can make the experience so much easier for everyone in your family.
