"The in-house inventory was conducted by a courteous staff member the day after contact. A free quotation was provided by the project coordinator assigned by 5 Star including an Angie’s List discount. Packing and wrapping were carefully done by the moving staff on-time during the agreed-to date. Items were temporarily stored and then moved to another state. The movers made contact prior to destination delivery and then carefully moved items into a self storage facility ahead of schedule."

Moving questions, answered by experts

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.

There are different types of moving companies, and you’ll want to look for one that has experience moving houses. Ask them how many houses they’ve moved, how long they’ve been in business, whether they coordinate all of the labor, permits, and subcontractors needed, and what their liability is for any damages incurred.

There are some household items movers won’t pack, while there are others that are important to keep on your person during the move. Don’t pack the following items:

  • Poisonous, hazardous, flammable, or explosive items, including some cleaners, matches, alcohol, and paint

  • Perishable food items

  • Pets and plants

  • Irreplaceable items and documents, such as your passport, will, and medical records

It is helpful for safety reasons to pack knives in their own box and clearly label them. This way, movers can take extra caution when moving these boxes and pack them in the moving truck accordingly. Plus, it will remind you to use extra caution when unpacking that box in your new kitchen. 

The amount you need to save depends on the cost of living in your new home country, your visa requirements, and the cost of health care and insurance.
