Whatstorage

Choose only what you want to take with you. Sell or get rid of unwanted furniture and the rest of your belongings before moving day. Pack whatever you can, and only leave what you can’t to the professionals. This will shorten the length of the moving job and lessen the number of movers needed for it. Do not schedule your move during peak season or weekends. Movers usually charge less for the transportation and delivery of your belongings on weekdays and off-peak months. Get additional moving insurance. This will be helpful if something does go wrong during the move. Be on the lookout for free boxes. Choose your van size carefully. Anything too big or too small may end up costing you more. Do not settle for the first mover that you encounter. Compare, compare, compare!
