Get step-by-step instructions for moving across state lines, and make your next move a breeze. Movers.com makes it easy with a free ultimate guide and a simple tool that gives you 7 free, no-obligation estimates from top-rated local moving companies.
You've probably already heard the old joke about a woman who called her husband to warn him, saying, "I just saw on the news that some crazy person is driving the wrong way on the interstate! Be careful!"
To which the husband replied, "One crazy person? Heck, there are dozens of them!"
It's an old joke, but a good one - and I repeated it here to make a point.
No, I'm not trying to suggest that your husband is a terrible driver - but I am trying to remind you that, sometimes, stuff happens.
Most of the time, these little complications are easy enough to deal with - but if you're planning to move your belonging across state lines to a new house, it's a really, really, bad time for "stuff to happen."
Moving between states can be a complicated process, and some of the steps you need to take aren't always obvious - but this free ultimate guide from Movers.com can help you to simplify the process, and prevent most of the common mistakes before they become a problem.
I'm not going to rewrite the guide here, but you can read the whole thing for free, with no strings attached. Just click here and it will take you right to the guide on the Movers.com website.
If you're still reading this, that means you didn't click to see the full guide - so let me tell you a little more about it.
The first thing I noticed, is that usually, Movers.com suggests that moves should be planned up to six months in advance whenever possible, but this new guide explains how you can optimize your move with as little as eight weeks' notice. That's 2 months or less, instead of 6 - so they're really helping to condense everything down to the simplest possible steps.
The next thing I noticed is in the very first step, and it's a super cool tool that you need to know about, even if you don't read their guide. It's a single form that you can fill in with details about your move, like where it's from, where you're going, and how much stuff you have to move - and then they send it to 7 of the top professionals in your area.
Those 7 local experts will each provide you with a free, no-obligation estimate, and you can even browse their reviews on the Movers.com website. This is definitely the easiest way to narrow down your choices because it gives you reliable information about the two criteria that matter most: Cost and Quality.
The free guide also suggests several questions to ask your chosen moving company, which will help to clarify any important regulations or considerations that need to be dealt with in advance, before you start moving your belongings. It's also the first step you need to take to create a moving budget - but I'll leave the details of that process to the guide.
Of course, it's not all about the moving company - though that's a seriously important step. The guide also discusses lots of the things you'll need to do before you move, to make sure your house, utilities, schooling, and identification are all in order.
It can get a little complicated, but that's why Movers.com made a comprehensive checklist. As long as you follow all of the steps, in order, you should be good to go with no worries.
Here's one of my favorite tips, before you go.
When you're packing to move, make sure you pack an emergency bag with everything you might need for at least 24 hours in your new home. Things like a change of clothes, a toothbrush, any medications, and any electronics you may need right away.
While it's unlikely that your moving truck will be delayed - it is definitely better to be prepared.
Movers.com explains it best, so I copied and pasted a small bit from their guide, “Relocating to a new state can be very overwhelming and tedious, especially if not done right. Whether you are a recent graduate, a working professional, or moving with a family, you want things to go as smoothly as possible. We put together the ultimate checklist to assist you in moving to another state.”
There are a lot of things that can go wrong, or complicate a move - but if you follow the free ultimate guide, you should be prepared for just about anything.
The 7 free, no-obligation estimates from trusted local experts are pretty nice too.
