Choosing a Moving Company

We know moving is tough, and many of you don’t move enough in your lifetime to make it second nature; we’ve heard horror stories from our clients about previous moving companies, who were either unprofessional, expensive, unreliable, or all three. We are here to help avoid these types of companies, and to select a professional moving company, like Boston Rare Movers!

First off, be sure to pick a moving company four to eight weeks before your moving day; that way you’re not scrambling last minute, and so you can find the cheapest and most reliable company out there. If you wait too long, the good companies will be all booked up. As soon as you have a moving date in mind, start researching moving companies; keep in mind that moving companies are often busy on Fridays and at the end of the month, so plan accordingly!

Then, think of what you need from the moving company; make a quick list of all the things you need help with from the moving company. This list will help us (because let’s face it we’re a very reliable moving company!), offer more accurate quotes because we will know exactly what you need from us, how many crew members we will need, and what supplies we need to provide. Some examples include:

  • Moving Date(s) that work best for you
  • Are you moving Locally, Long Distance or Internationally?
  • Will you need help with Packing, and do you need Packing Supplies?
  • Are you going to Pack Yourself?
  • Are you Moving Valuable or Fragile Items?
  • Do you need Insurance?
  • How much “Stuff” are you Moving?

These are just a few of the things you should have figured out before you even begin to move; if you figure out your move date, and what you need from your moving company, you will find yourself two steps closer to an easier, less stressful moving day!
