Does the New Year Mean A New Career? Planning the Small Move

November 29, 2011 by admin

It’s no secret that the economy is tough.  Good jobs are hard to find, and people are increasingly willing to move great distances in order to find work.  If you’re in that position, and need to move in order to take a new job, you are in the position of planning to move.

There are many types of moves.  Here in Eastern MA, we see two types of residential moves: large moves, which involve packing up the accumulated possessions, furniture, and belongings of a large family, and small moves, which generally involve only one or two people and their household.  There are some special things to keep in mind when you’re planning a small move in Eastern MA.

Minimum Load Size: Many professional moving companies have a minimum load size requirement.  They will charge you to move this minimum amount, even if in reality, the amount of possessions and furniture you have is much smaller.  Choose a Eastern MA moving company with no minimum load size requirement to save yourself money: why pay for space or service that you won’t be using?

Reputation & Expertise: Let’s face it.  Not all moving companies are created equal.  There are respected professional Eastern MA moving companies, and there are fly-by-night service providers who load up everything you own and take off – maybe to deliver your stuff, or maybe to hold onto it until you agree to pay exorbitant, last minute fees.  Choose a trusted Eastern MA small move company with an excellent reputation. Do your research, and never be afraid to ask for references!

Avoiding Breakage and Damage: Packing for a move, especially an international move, is a specialized skill.  Using the right custom crates, moving boxes, and packing materials can determine whether you arrive at your new destination with all of your worldly possessions intact. Choose a Eastern MA packing company that knows how to ship artwork, electronics, and other fragile items to make your move stress free!

"Boston Pack and Ship shipped my mother’s cedar “hope” chest to my sister in Flagstaff, Arizona. The chest is 70 years old and a priceless family heirloom. As for Boston Pack and Ship’s handling of the chest, in the words of my sister, the job turned out ‘magnificently’. The delivery was ahead of projected schedule and the chest was packed with great care with exceptional “product safety” initiatives of Styrofoam, plastic, false bottoms cartons within the crate and above the crate; the legs of the chest were taped with great care…….truly product protection at its best!! Both my sister and I would refer Boston Pack and Ship without hesitation as the price, product safety, delivery and service are exceptional."
