Q: Is it cheaper to move myself?

• <div><p>Yes, it is cheaper to move yourself than to hire professional movers. The average DIY move costs <b>$120 to $2,300</b>, while professionals cost <b>$890 to $2,570</b> on average or up to <b>$12,000</b> for the longest distances. While you&rsquo;ll save on the cost of professional labor with a DIY move, you&rsquo;ll spend more time and energy packing, loading, transporting, unloading, and unpacking. </p></div>

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

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s best to schedule a moving pod two months before your moving date. This should give you enough time to secure the correct size and number of moving pods you need. It&rsquo;s often possible to book moving pods on shorter notice, even within one week, but there&rsquo;s a higher risk of local pods already being taken, especially if you&rsquo;re moving during the summer or on a holiday or weekend.</p></div>

Q: How hard is it to move a gun safe?

• <div><p>The level of difficulty for this type of move depends on the size of the safe. However, even a small gun safe can weigh several hundred pounds. Since gun safes are large and bulky, they are typically difficult to move and transport unless you have the right equipment and plenty of professional help.</p></div>

Q: How do I move a heavy couch upstairs?

• <div><p>Start by removing any obstacles in the moving path, such as side tables, lamps, or other furniture. If your couch has legs, unscrew them. Measure the couch and the stairway to ensure you have enough room; if it seems unlikely, examine the shape and size of the couch and decide whether it might fit better up the stairway and through doorways on its side, held diagonally, or moved in an upright position.</p><p>Consider putting the sofa on a dolly to go up the stairs. It should be able to fit upright on a standard dolly with wheels. You&rsquo;ll still need to lift the dolly&mdash;with the couch on it&mdash;up the stairs, but it will reduce the physical strain. The person holding the dolly should pull the couch up, while the helper should be on the other side, keeping the couch secure and steady.</p><p>If you don&rsquo;t have a dolly, the person in front should lift the couch slightly higher than the person in the back to create more stability. The person in the back should also be the stronger mover, as most of the weight will be distributed there.</p></div>

Q: How do I ship furniture to another state?

• <div><p>There are generally three ways to ship furniture to another state: hiring professional movers, using consolidated freight, or through parcel shipping. Professional movers will generally pack your boxes in a truck and transport them to a storage facility or directly to your home. </p><p>A consolidated freight service will pack, load, and ship your items, but this is best to use for one or two pieces since your items will take longer to be delivered and will share truck space with other items. Parcel shipping such as UPS and FedEx is best for smaller items since there are size limits, and you&rsquo;ll have to drop the boxes off at a local branch.</p></div>
