Q: What do you do when movers are moving you?

• <div><p>While your movers focus on packing and transporting your belongings, you can focus on other parts of your move, such as preparing children and pets to move or cleaning rooms as they&rsquo;re emptied. You&rsquo;ll need to be onsite as your movers pack or unpack your stuff, and can help direct movers to where items should go if they need help. Additionally, if there are certain items you&rsquo;d prefer to move yourself, such as valuables or sentimental items, focus on packing those things and taking them with you during your move.</p></div>

Q: How do you move a house properly?

• <div><p>The first step in moving a house is to provide blueprints and assess which parts of the house you can move. The next steps are obtaining permits, inspecting the structure, securing road permits, and getting bank approval.</p><p>When it's time to move, professionals can prepare the house by disconnecting utilities, removing items, and adding support braces. The house is then lifted with steel beams, jacked up, and placed on dollies for transport. Once it&rsquo;s at the new location, it gets lowered onto the new foundation, utilities get reconnected, and additional features, like porches or garages, are added.</p></div>

Q: What questions should I ask a moving company?

• <div><p>Before hiring a moving company to help you with your move, there are a few things you will want to ask, including: </p><ul><li><p>Is there anything your company won&rsquo;t move? </p></li><li><p>Does workers&rsquo; compensation cover the crew?</p></li><li><p>Will you disassemble and reassemble the furniture? </p></li><li><p>Are there packing restrictions?</p></li><li><p>Can you guarantee my delivery date?</p></li><li><p>Can you provide references? </p></li><li><p>What do you charge extra for?</p></li><li><p>What is your cancellation policy?</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Can you move a fish tank with gravel in it?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s possible, but it&rsquo;s important to be extremely careful, and always remove rocks and heavier hardscape items. Drain all the water from the tank, leaving just enough to keep the gravel slightly submerged to keep your bacteria alive. Then, grab a helper or two and carefully lift the tank from either side, supporting the bottom and keeping it level. If the tank is especially heavy, consider slipping plywood underneath to minimize pressure on the glass. Be sure to pack it so it stays level and doesn&rsquo;t shift during transit.</p></div>

Q: What do you wrap a TV in when moving?

• <div><p>If you don&rsquo;t have the TV&rsquo;s original wrapping sleeve, you&rsquo;ll need to find other methods of protection when moving it to a new home. Your best options for wrapping a TV are a combination of bubble wrap and moving blankets. For extra protection, you can purchase a foam TV cover or pouch, which is made exclusively for this purpose. </p></div>

I’ve been welding for 13 years and working side jobs for the past 3. I recently made it official and started my own welding and fabrication business serving south central Kansas. I offer mobile and shop welding for repairs, fabrication, trailers, farm equipment, gates, and more. If it’s steel and it’s broke, I can likely fix it. If you need something built, I can make it happen.\nWhen you hire me, you’re working directly with the welder — not a sales team. I take pride in solid work, fair pricing, and getting the job done right. Call or message me with what you need and we’ll get it handled.

Moving questions, answered by experts

While your movers focus on packing and transporting your belongings, you can focus on other parts of your move, such as preparing children and pets to move or cleaning rooms as they’re emptied. You’ll need to be onsite as your movers pack or unpack your stuff, and can help direct movers to where items should go if they need help. Additionally, if there are certain items you’d prefer to move yourself, such as valuables or sentimental items, focus on packing those things and taking them with you during your move.

The first step in moving a house is to provide blueprints and assess which parts of the house you can move. The next steps are obtaining permits, inspecting the structure, securing road permits, and getting bank approval.

When it's time to move, professionals can prepare the house by disconnecting utilities, removing items, and adding support braces. The house is then lifted with steel beams, jacked up, and placed on dollies for transport. Once it’s at the new location, it gets lowered onto the new foundation, utilities get reconnected, and additional features, like porches or garages, are added.

Before hiring a moving company to help you with your move, there are a few things you will want to ask, including:

Is there anything your company won’t move?
Does workers’ compensation cover the crew?
Will you disassemble and reassemble the furniture?
Are there packing restrictions?
Can you guarantee my delivery date?
Can you provide references?
What do you charge extra for?
What is your cancellation policy?

Yes, it’s possible, but it’s important to be extremely careful, and always remove rocks and heavier hardscape items. Drain all the water from the tank, leaving just enough to keep the gravel slightly submerged to keep your bacteria alive. Then, grab a helper or two and carefully lift the tank from either side, supporting the bottom and keeping it level.
