Are you a first-time mover or someone that has moved many times before? Either way, each moving experience is unique and presents its own foreseen and hidden challenges. Moving by yourself, while it can often feel rewarding, has the potential to cause a huge amount of stress to the person/people doing it. You never know what you are going to run into, so that is why it is important to at least consider hiring movers to make the job easier. This stress can be alleviated when hiring professional movers such as Tru Solutions Moving, Utah’s best moving company. Learning when to call a moving company is a key to managing this potential stress.
So, you have decided to call a moving company to help you out. When is the right time to do so? What do you ask them? What do they need to know about you? Pondering these questions can cause you to become confused or stressed again if you do not have any experience hiring movers or if you do not know a lot about the process. Here are some tips that can help you consider when to call a moving company and what to talk to them about if you do not have a lot of experience working with one.
Assess your needs before contacting a moving company
Before reaching out to a moving company, it is a good idea to write down a list of what services you think you will need. Look at the layout of your house, the contents of the rooms, the amount of furniture you will need to move, how far you are moving from your current residence, and other factors. That way, you will have the specifics of the job prepared for the movers. These specifics will allow them to plan your move accordingly. Tru Solutions Moving offers various services that we are happy to discuss with you at any time, including state-to-state moving, item delivery, junk removal, cleaning, and loading/unloading.
Contact them early in the moving process
The best practice would be to call several moving companies right after you find out that you will be moving. For example, if you find out six months before you will be leaving your current area, you should call a moving company then. Giving the movers an advanced notice allows you to pick a time that works for both you and the moving company. Plus if you give them a list of what you think you’ll need them to do, they can guide you in the right direction in terms of what services you actually need them to provide.
Call them rather than reach out solely online
Most of the time when you are looking to buy a product or service from a specific company, it is preferred that you give them a call if possible. By giving the moving company you choose a call, you begin to form a positive relationship with them. This will make your moving experience feel more comfortable, personable, and professional all at once. You will also be able to get all your questions answered at once rather than have to wait for an email response to each of them.
Be honest with them about your experience
Moving companies understand that not everyone has experience utilizing their services. If you are one of those people, it is okay to admit that you need help with the process. The company will be happy to assist you during every step of the way and give you experience and tips for your next move. Tru Solutions Moving is delighted to perform every job that we get regardless of the customer’s experience level. Your move will go as smoothly as possible if you know when to call a moving company and accept their guidance.
