To hire or not to hire … that is the question.

When it is time to move to a new home, the first decision can be the most difficult. Should you hire a professional mover, or complete the move yourself?  From budgets and logistics to personal preferences and ability, there are a lot of factors to making this decision.
​
Here are a few reasons that hiring a moving company might be what’s best for you and your family.

The 4 main pros of hiring movers

1. Convenience:  

Suppose you COULD handle moving all of your worldly possessions to your new home. Do you really WANT to? Hiring a professional mover will take all the hassle away from your relocation. Not only will they be able to handle packing, disassembly/reassembly and transportation of your goods, but they’ll have the expertise to protect your property and even overcome any unforeseen complications.

2. Liability:

When hiring a mover, ask about their valuation options. All movers have a free valuation along with a more comprehensive coverage. If the mover’s costs are too high, there are even third-party companies that will cover your shipment.

3. ​Equipment: 

In order to get your goods to their new home, you will need equipment to do so. Trucks, dollies and blankets are all necessary moving supplies. If you hire a licensed mover, they will bring all those things with them, and even have additional items that can be used to safely relocate your home.

​4. Moving for work:

​If you are moving due to a new job, or a new position within your company, and that company has offered to pay for your move directly, there is no reason to do this move yourself.
