Q: What percentage of people hire movers?

• <div><p>Around half of Americans hire professional movers, while the other half DIY their moves.</p></div>

Q: How far in advance should I book a moving company?

• <div><p>You should book your moving company as far in advance as possible, at least two months or more. This is especially important if you're moving during the summer months, which are the peak moving season. This will help you save money on unexpected expenses and the stress that comes with trying to find a mover, which can be harder during certain months of the year. </p></div>

Q: When do I pay for the moving container?

• <div><p>When you submit your payment depends on the company&rsquo;s policy and if you use the container for storage before and after the move. Some companies require a deposit, and others collect the fees on the day the container arrives at your home. </p></div>

Q: Is it less expensive to move a house or build one?

• <div><p>Building a house is generally more expensive upfront than moving an existing one. However, the total cost depends on factors such as location, size, materials, labor, and permits. Moving a house can incur significant expenses for transportation, permits, site preparation, and renovations. On the other hand, building a new house allows for customization and may have lower long-term maintenance costs.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to hire movers or move by myself?

• <div><p>Generally, you should hire movers when moving large, heavy objects. Professional movers can take much of the work off your hands and remove the risk of personal injury. But if you&rsquo;re only moving a few light items, you can save money by making the move on your own and renting a moving truck.</p></div>

I've used this company for roofing as well as interior flooring. Cannot recommend enough. The only problem I have is after we move to Staunton VA next year I'll be too far to use them any more.

Shampoo carpet for pet urine smell. Smell is greatly improved - would probably take two shampoos to remove entirely. Not the fault of the company though. My only beef is that sehyo showed up an hour early and did not move the couch, to get under the couch, as asked.
