How to Handle a Household Move as a Single Parent

March 14, 2022 by admin

When you’re a single parent, you’re used to every household responsibility ultimately being yours to handle. This means you have to be strong and organized. It also means that when you’re up against a very overwhelming situation, such as a household move, you can feel very alone and stressed out.

In this article, we’re going to talk about how to handle a household move as a single parent. These tips are designed to help you keep your stress levels down while getting your possessions moved efficiently and safely. Here’s what you need to know:

Choose a Moving Company with an Established Reputation for Excellence

One thing about the moving industry – it’s full of fly-by-night, semi-amateur companies that set up shop, treat customers badly, and disappear at a moment’s notice when things start to get difficult. You’ve probably already had enough people like this in your life! Make life easier for yourself by choosing a Boston moving company that has an established reputation for excellence. It’s best to choose a company that’s been in business for quite some time. Do your research. No company has 100% positive reviews in this world, but you want to choose a company that most people respect and trust.

Use a Pack and Ship Moving Company to Make Life Easier for Yourself

We know you’re used to doing everything on your own but you don’t have to. A pack and ship moving service will come to your home, quickly and professionally pack all of your things, including furniture, and get these items safely transported to your next address.

The typical family takes up to a month to pack for a move, and that’s assuming two capable adults each doing their part to get the job done. As a single parent, you may not have the time or assistance to get the job done in this timeframe. Luckily, experienced Boston pack and ship movers can get a household packed and shipped in less than a day.

"We called Boston Pack and Ship looking for someone who would ship four pieces of furniture, 12 picture boxes and two book boxes from Scituate, Massachusetts to Bellingham, Washington. The furniture included a sideboard, a dresser, a drop leaf table and a secretary desk. We knew that we didn't have enough for the usual moving company but these were things that our daughter wanted to have as they had belonged to her grandmother. Bill Yankee was most helpful. He arranged to have the items picked up and then they were then carefully packed before being shipped. Throughout, we were kept advised of the progress of the shipment and its arrival time. We felt that they took exceptional care with our belongings and were most conscientious - as well as courteous and helpful."

I used Boston Pack and Ship to send an antique piece of furniture from Boston to Sedona, AZ. I can't say enough about their service and the quality of the packing. Item arrived on the day they said it would and was in pristine condition. Easy to work with and great customer service. Highly recommend.

I hired Boston Pack and Ship to move two items from my storage unit in the Boston area to my home in Florida. Gene Sullivan was 110% responsive. He picked up the items on time, packed them expertly; and they arrived in perfect condition about ten days after pick up. I could not ask for better service. Five stars is not enough!

We at Casey Movers do not hesitate to refer our customers to this business for shipments we do not think we are best suited for (smaller inter-state shipments under 3,000lbs, etc). Have had great feedback from clients that have utilized this service. Thank you from all at Casey Movers for providing top notch service and have a great new year!
