August 2, 2012 - Hiring professional
moving services can make relocating less of a hassle, but there are some questions consumers should ask before making a decision.
While friends and family members can likely offer recommendations for movers, those moving should also ask potential hires for references. There are also numerous websites that allow both satisfied and unsatisfied customers to rate their experience and the company as a whole.
If those relocating are doing so at the last-minute or just don't want to pack themselves, many moving services will pack and load moving boxes and furniture. In some cases, items won't be insured unless they are packed and moved by professionals, so this question is important to ask.
When contacting multiple
moving companies, make sure to find out how they charge. Some offer estimates based on the weight of items, while others will charge by the hour. To avoid any surprise fees or expenses, those relocating should also inquire about what are considered extra services and how much they will cost.
