Get matched with top movers in Free Soil, MI

Q: Is it worth hiring movers to move a 3-bedroom house long distance?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s worth the cost to hire professional long-distance movers. Professional movers will ensure your household belongings reach your destination safely and efficiently&mdash;with many companies already having made similar moving trips recently. Also, professional movers have the proper equipment and experience to ensure your move goes smoothly. </p></div>

Q: When should I start packing clothes for a move?

• <div><p>You should give yourself ample time to pack clothes for a move. For best results, begin packing at least a few weeks before moving. The packing process may take shorter or longer depending on how many clothes you have and the size of your home. Start with clothing that&rsquo;s out of season and work you way to the pieces you plan to pack in your moving-day suitcase.</p></div>

Q: What expenses will I have to pay after moving?

• <div><p>Once you complete the moving process, you&rsquo;ll have to transition into paying for your new living expenses, including monthly rent or mortgage payments. You should also consider the cost of property taxes, utilities, and new furnishings for your home.</p></div>

Q: Do you need to drain a dishwasher before moving it?

• <div><p>If the dishwasher is in working condition, start and run a complete cycle with nothing inside. Let it drain and sit overnight before removing the hoses. In theory, it should effectively drain. You may find residual water in the hoses, but you can plug them. If the dishwasher breaks down midcycle it can sometimes be full of water. You&rsquo;ll need to manually remove the water with a plastic cup before removing the dishwasher. </p></div>

Q: Can you rent moving straps?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s rare to rent moving straps alone. Typically, you buy them outright. However, if you rent moving equipment, like loading tools or a furniture dolly, from a local or big-box business, they may come with moving straps for you to use.</p></div>

"So I hired these folks to help me unload a self-move U-Haul. I did help extensively with the unloading. I also moved six times in 10 years. While the workers were extremely nice, they did not arrive with basic moving gear: gloves, sliding pads, or hoist straps. They caused more damage than I'm comfortable with for a move. Furthermore, mid-transaction, the payment method changed, and the phone number became obsolete. I had concerns on the operational side."
