Q: What should I consider when planning a DIY move?

• <div><p>When moving yourself, you should consider the non-monetary costs, such as time spent and physical and mental stress. If you&rsquo;re packing and moving every box on your own, or with the help of a few volunteers, you can expect the process to take several days or even weeks. While it&rsquo;s a less expensive option than hiring full-service movers, keep in mind that the process will be much more difficult.</p></div>

Q: Should you tip movers?

• <div><p>Tipping movers is not mandatory, and most professional companies do not expect it. However, it is a common way to show appreciation for their hard work and the care they take with your belongings and home. A standard tip is between 10% and 20% of your total bill, split among the crew, or about $10 per mover per hour, tipped individually. It's an especially good idea to tip if the movers work in difficult weather, handle specialty items like pianos or pool tables, provide extra packing services, or go above and beyond your expectations.</p></div>

Q: What’s the easiest way to move a shed?

• <div><p>The easiest way to move a shed is to roll it along a makeshift conveyor belt made of strong PVC pipes and a board. Alternatively, hiring professional movers <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/who-moves-sheds.htm">who move sheds</a> makes your shed-moving project as simple as making a call and writing a check.</p></div>

Q: What should I leave behind when moving?

• <div><p>Products that are hazardous, such as aerosol sprays, top the list of what to leave behind during a move. Avoid packing perishables, garden and garage chemicals, pool supplies, compressed gases, and combustible items. If you are trying to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pack-away-advice-diy-move.htm">move by yourself</a>, you may want to downsize so you have fewer belongings to pack and move (and then unpack).</p></div>

Q: What are the different ways to move?

• <div><p>Typically, local moves involve either renting a moving truck and moving yourself or hiring local movers to do the job. For long-distance moves, options include hiring a full-service moving company that handles packing, loading, transportation, and unloading, or using a self-moving service where you load your belongings into a container or trailer and have it transported. Another option is hiring professional movers for labor-only services, where they assist with loading and unloading your rented truck. You can also opt for moving pods or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-pack-moving-containers.htm">moving containers</a> that can be transported to the destination.</p></div>
