Moving Tip # 62 -
Supervise Your Movers * Just like moving day, when your furniture is delivered, stick around to direct movers. Again time is money for the movers. Movers don't mind putting furniture in the right area of the house, but if you're not around to direct them they won't know where anything goes. Movers often may charge extra if they have to double or triple handle furniture items because you are not there to direct them. So please be present to supervise their efforts.
Movers Tip # 60 -
Estimates From Several Movers * Get estimates from at least three movers, and compare costs and services between the movers. Doing so will give you a piece of mind knowing you are not getting overcharged.
Moving Tip # 58 -
Provide Movers With Contact Info * Provide movers with your contact info so you can be reached during the move. It's a good idea that you provide movers all pertinent contact phone numbers. Cell phone numbers are great, but also a landline or 2 for cases where cell reception is spotty, or cell batteries go dead.
Moving Tip # 34 -
Use Your Luggage * Use your suit cases and duffle bags to fill with clothes, sheets or other fabric items. Otherwise you will not be using these resources effectively.
