Get matched with top movers in Machias, ME

Q: Is it possible to move a shed without dismantling it?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s possible to move a shed without dismantling it. You can roll it from one location to another or use a pickup truck, trailer, or forklift to move a fully assembled shed. </p></div>

Q: What is the most expensive part of moving?

• <div><p>The most expensive part of moving is hiring professional movers. However, hiring a pro is more efficient and less stressful, so many people find the cost worth it. You&rsquo;ll also spend a lot of money on packing supplies, including boxes, tape, and bubble wrap, so ask around to see if any friends or family members have old supplies you can use for free. </p></div>

Q: Do I need to pack everything in my home and move it separately?

• <div><p>Surprisingly, no! For most house moves, you can keep everything inside as is, although we&rsquo;d recommend taking out any sentimental or extremely fragile items. You&rsquo;ll need to fully empty your basement or crawl space, but otherwise, your home can be moved with everything intact. Your movers will also be able to provide you with further guidance. </p></div>

Q: How do movers handle fragile items?

• <div><p>Professional movers use dedicated packing materials like specialty boxes for artwork, TVs, clothes and other things that need to be moved with care. If professional movers are packing for you, they use foam, bubble wrap, and other cushioning for the journey. You can ask questions about how movers will handle specific items when you are getting a price estimate.</p></div>

Q: How should I budget for a long-distance move?

• <div><p>Knowing how much a typical long-distance move will cost is the first step in the budgeting process. Start by calling at least three local moving companies for quotes so you have a ballpark range&mdash;then you can start saving weekly. You can also start decluttering your home to reduce your truck weight and try to find donated packing supplies from local businesses or neighbors that recently moved. </p></div>
