Three Ways to Move to Your New Home


Moving

Over 40 million Americans move every year, but moving can be a nightmare if the process is not handled correctly. This can be especially true if you are moving over a long distance. However, planning ahead and choosing the correct method of moving ahead of time can save you from experiencing a stressful move. With several options to choose from, it is important to select the method that can most effectively get you to your new home stress free.

1. Do it yourself. Many people, when they move, choose to use their own vehicles in order to transport their belongings. This option is not always ideal for moving over a long distance, though, unless you have a vehicle that is large enough to transport everything in one trip. Transporting your belongings yourself will save money, but it will also create more work for you. With gas prices the way they are, this option is usually only recommended for people who are moving a short distance so that multiple trips are not a hassle.

2. Hire long distance movers. Long distance movers will take all the work off your hands by wrapping, packing, and shipping your materials for you. Since this type of full service moving can be costly depending on how far you are moving and how much needs to be packed, some moving companies will offer Do It Yourself services as well. With these services, you are generally required to pack the delivery truck yourself, but when you are finished, the moving company will transport everything for you.

3. Rent moving pods. This is another Do It Yourself moving option, as it requires you to pack your own belongings inside one or more pods that you rent. Once they are all packed, however, the pod rental company will transport them to your new home. If you decide that you cannot or do not want to pack by yourself, pod renting services also give you the option of hiring skilled professionals that will help you pack.

If the best method of moving is not chosen before you begin, the moving process can be a stressful experience. However, if you decide ahead of time whether you want to do it yourself, rent a pod, or hire long distance movers, you reduce the chances of running into any unwanted surprises. By planning ahead, you can efficiently move into your new home without experiencing any problems.

  1. All I have to say is, if you are hiring a moving company or renting a pod, make sure to get quotes from multiple companies first. Reason being, my husband and I chose a service that had a great reputation, but afterwards we realized there were better, cheaper options available.
