Finding the Best Movers


Houston move

Whether you are moving down the block or around the world, your Houston movers can help you get there in one piece. Some simple research can help you find the most reliable movers for your situation and needs.

First, determine how sophisticated will you move actually be. Do you have lots of possessions that need to be packed, delivered and unpacked for you? Alternatively, are you doing all of the packing and unpacking, but looking for assistance with a truck and delivery?

These different criteria can help you formulate a targeted search for the right movers. The quickest way to find prospective movers is to review customer comments and reviews concerning your targeted companies. Make sure they have a good track record and do not overcharge once they have your possessions.

Fees and estimates can be a tricky element to navigate when researching movers. They generally estimate based on estimated weight. By looking at your home and how much stuff you have, they can ball park the fees. The problem comes when the estimate is off, which will occur occasionally because it is challenging to estimate weight with a visual examination. As long as they are within reason there should not be much change to the cost. Look at reviewers comments for these types of situations. You may want to skip the movers that do this frequently.

Use your review process also as a time to evaluate any insurance issues. For examples, if previous customers experienced breakage, was it fixed at the movers expense or was it deemed outside of their insurance guidelines. You will have to use your judgement here as to whether this is a reason to eliminate certain movers.

Alternatively you can research adding your own insurance riders to the required company insurance. This can mean you can really replace lost or damaged items versus getting a partial monetary reward that does not cover the full replacement value. As a bonus, the add on insurance plans may have better coverage for theft or acts of God. A little research here goes a long way when you could potentially lose all of your possessions. More.
