When most people think of hiring moving companies, they envision a long-distance move across the country. Statistically, most moves are local, though! According to Forbes, about 84% of short-distance moves don't involve moving out of the immediate neighborhood, town, or county. Local moving services are an excellent option for anyone moving a short distance. Let's learn more about what these helpful professionals have to offer.
Offering Moving Supplies
Movers who don't plan on hiring someone to do the heavy lifting will still need packing supplies. Most moving services offer various supplies to make moving easier. You can pick up different-sized boxes to make packing a breeze. Filling materials like bubble wrap and packing paper are excellent options. They can keep your items cushioned throughout the whole process.
Providing Storage Facilities
Many moving companies offer storage facilities. Here at Geo. W. Weaver & Son, we offer both commercial and residential storage solutions! These are ideal for all sorts of movers, such as empty nesters decluttering to put their homes on the market or families relocating to smaller houses. You may use your chosen storage facility for holiday decorations, extra furniture, or any items you don't have immediate room for.
Lifting Heavy Furniture
Local moving services are a great way to get all the heavy lifting done. Your thirty and forty-year-old friends aren't going to break their backs for a pizza like they would ten years ago. Don't find yourself lifting heavy furniture that can cause an injury. Instead, let our local movers take care of it for you. They have training and experience to ensure that nobody is injured on the job.
Protecting Your Items
Items can quickly become damaged during a move. Moving furniture through tight spaces can scratch the wood or rip the fabric. Glassware can accidentally get broken. Only professional movers should permanently move large items that require special care, such as pianos. If you damage your items, you'll be stuck paying the price to replace them. A moving company will provide insurance coverage options to ensure your items are protected.
Even if you plan every last detail, local moves can be tedious and stressful on your own. Let us handle the heavy moving so you can enjoy a seamless move. Contact Geo. W. Weaver & Son today to schedule your move. We look forward to helping you settle into your new home ASAP!
