Choosing the Right Edmonton Moving Company

 
 

Are you just a little bit worried about employing some rogue, fly-by-night movers to relocate all of your earthly belongings half way across the country?

 

If so, then the following snippets of advice will prove invaluable as you hunt for a trustworthy Edmonton moving company that will give you the peace of mind you’re looking for.

Define what you are looking for

Choose the right kind of moving company. There are several different kinds, such as inter-province moving companies, relocation services, local movers, pack-and-stack and trucking services.

Get referrals

You can ask around your friends, neighbors and work colleagues for recommendations and warnings about what moving companies to avoid.

Make a shortlist and each firm on your list

Once you have made a list of potential Edmonton moving companies to choose from, call each of them. You can find out a few things to help you decide, by asking how long they have been operating, how much training and experience does their staff have, are they insured, and do they have the licenses needed for interstate relocations.

Check that the company you are considering is legitimate

This means checking their credentials and making sure they are insured. You can contact state transportation regulators, or look for the Department of Transportation or Public Utility Commissions in the phone book.

Enquire if the Edmonton moving company is affiliated with any trade organization

If they are a member of a respectable organization, then this is a pretty sure bet that they are a reputable firm. A proven association can often assist in dispute resolution.

Check for complaints against the company

You can make inquiries with the Better Business Bureau and see if the company has had many complaints made against them in the past.

By this stage you should have narrowed down your shortlist considerably, and you can now move on to asking for estimates, knowing that whatever company you choose, you are going to be in a very safe pair of hands.

Edmonton Mover: Sample from "Moving Company Hiring Guide":

Don't Underestimate the Job

The biggest mistake that many people make is in thinking that they don’t need a moving company, or that any old moving company will do. While this may well be the case in your circumstances, most of the time this simply isn’t so. The one thing you must do is make sure that you do not underestimate the job to hand.

For many people, taking care of the finances of buying a new home and selling the old one is often complex enough, and they can well do without the added logistical challenges of overseeing the packing of their furniture and goods, transportation, and then unloading everything at the new home. And then of course, there are issues with damage. You wouldn’t want any of your valuable objects to get damaged while in transit, would you?

Another reason to consider using a moving company is the physical aspect of the job. While packing boxes is one thing, lugging them around, into and out of vans, up and down stairs is quite another.

It can be very tiring, especially if you face a tight deadline with which to vacate your home. Certainly, exhaustive work of this kind is the last thing you need on top of all the other stress you have to deal with. Combined with moving valuables or fragile pieces like antiques, it really is best to call in the professionals and let them get on with it.

To make sure that there are no unexpected problems, no damage to your possessions and no last minute hitch, it is always infinitely better to hire a moving company that you can trust.
