Why Hiring A Professional Mover Is Totally Worth It When You Have A Family

So You’re Moving…

Moving to a new home is up there with one of the most stressful things a family will do. Home hunting can be exciting, but it’s not without it’s own set of challenges. And the moving process itself, I can’t imagine that anyone can attach the connotation of enjoyment to that unless they’re insane. Which is why there are more reasons than one, particularly for families, why you should be thinking about an expert house moving company. Trust me, you’ll thank me later.

You’ll Be Heading The Right Way

Where are you moving to? Are you familiar with the area? Is it a convenient location? If you’re not one for navigating your way to new places without a hoard of stuff to trail along with you and kids in the back demanding your attention, you’re probably not going to be any better initiating the way on your moving day.

Avoid Pulling A Muscle

Ha ha funny. That’s the joke right? I wish…I’m pretty sure every time I’ve ever moved, I’ve felt like I got hit by the moving truck the next few days. We’re not as young as we once were, and so we need to be more careful. Plus we really should make sure we reserve all of our energy and flexibility for bending over backwards to look after the children right? If you’re not clued up with ‘lifting with your knees and not your back‘ (or something like that), don’t even think about lifting anything on your moving day unless you don’t mind the prospect of a slipped disc. I wish I was joking here, but there are actually many injuries suffered at the hands of the neighborhood moving crew and unsafe methods. Movers, however, go through training to keep your things as well as themselves safe while on the job. You’ll have plenty to deal with when you get to unpack it all anyway.

Your Belongings Are Covered

If there’s an oops moment and something breaks while you’re packing, loading or traveling with your belongings in your truck, tied on top of the car, or even your rented box truck, it’s probably lost for good. However, you can take comfort when hiring a professional moving company that if something breaks in their presence their insurance covers your goods. Let it be someone else’s problem. There is a price for peace of mind, after all.

Far Quicker Than Doing It Alone

Envision trying to lift your massive bed down two flights of stairs then up into a truck with your other half. And then! Needing to go back into the house and lift even more things. All the while, kids and cats are casually walking right underneath your feet, asking for snacks, if you can go to laser tag today and trying to show you their awful dance choreography (the children, not the cats…unless you have super cool cats). That vision sounds like a nightmare,  but it could be your reality if you don’t hire a professional moving company to take care of your moving day. Seriously, when have the kids ever made an undertaking like this easier? And not to mention the obvious, but it’ll be a lot quicker than trying to tackle moving homes on your own too.

For families moving homes in particular, a moving company is a must-have essential. Although reputable movers usually get booked up quite quickly, so make sure you get in touch with a few in advance to gauge the costs and available dates to book your moving date asap.
