Generally speaking, a moving company offers a number of expert home and corporate relocation services to clients in need of moving assistance, including professional packing services, heavy-lifting, bulky furniture disassembling and loading, temporary storage solutions and item relocation using top-tier moving trucks and van lines. The moving company will charge the homeowner, renter or corporate representative for the services once the house, corporate or commercial move will be completed.

It depends on how far you plan on moving. For example, if you are moving to a nearby city or a neighbouring state, your items will likely be delivered in one to seven days from the previously agreed moving date. Provided you are moving long-distance, the delivery should take between two and twenty-two days, on average. If you have any special requests concerning the delivery time, feel free to have them discussed with your moving manager.

Usually, the sooner, the better, with four to eight weeks as an ideal time for the move to be planned and organized the right way. For a more complex corporate move for several employees at a time, you may need to plan your move even more in advance.

It will normally cost less to hire a moving company during the week compared to weekends and national holidays since you can avoid peak times when movers’ prices will also go up. Summertime is also considered a more expensive time to move, as most truck renters and moving companies will charge you more.

Usually, you could consider offering mover food provided it will take them longer than 5 to 5 hours to load all your boxes in the vans. Provided they start early in the day, their work will most likely run into lunchtime. You can either let them go eat lunch somewhere else or order pizza at your location. Either way, make sure they get the break they deserve.
