How to Shop Around

Before you start shopping around, ask yourself, “What is it that I need?” Most service industry companies have a whole lot of different options, some of which you won’t necessarily require. The more services provided, the more costly your expenses will be. Step one is really simple. Just sit down with a pen and a pad and figure out exactly what you need. Shopping around for anything is more effective if you get started early, so don’t procrastinate. Once you have a good idea of what you actually need from the service provider you’ll hire, start researching companies that offer what you seek. Research can be done online; it can also be done by having a conversation with people who have hired out for similar services. Have a friend who had an excellent experience with such a company? Odds are you’ll have a good experience too, but you should still shop around so that you know you’re making the best choice. Keep in mind; reputation is extremely important, as is experience.

Eventually you’ll be on the phone with multiple service providers having different versions of the same conversation with each of them. “Hello my name is so-and-so and I need this that and the other on such-and-such date…” Make sure that you have your preliminary notes handy, and be sure to take notes as well. You should have a basic idea of what you need already, but the voice on the other end of the phone is a terrific source of insight, so take advantage, and compare with other companies what you’ll discuss. Remember; some of the quotes that you receive may seem to-good-to-be-true… trust your instincts on this. For example: In the moving industry (as with many service-labor industries) there are local movers who pay bottom dollar for temporary or day-worker labor. The low cost to such companies does result in extra-low rates for you, but it all balances out in the end. Nashville movers who hire day-laborers provide a service which is void of skill, speed, and efficiency, thus defeating the purpose of low tempting rates. Greatness is achieved through experience not through cutting corners. You get what you pay for, so make a truly educated decision when the time comes to pick your service provider. Happy shopping, everybody! Good luck!

Planning a move…did you create a budget?
Have you considered how much it takes to move? Planning a moving budget should be the first step towards planning a move. I usually recommend requesting a few quotes to find the going rates of movers in Nashville. Once you’ve narrowed those down to the best three, determine what you’re willing to spend on a move of this nature. Make certain you add in cost for everything associated with your move. Consider the cost it will take for travel, if out of town, moving supplies, deposits for utilities, etc. On another note, some moving expenses are tax deductible, so keep your receipts!

Hire full-time movers in Nashville

When it comes to moving your valuables its really crucial you hire a moving company that employs full-time movers and not day laborers. Some Nashville movers are prone to engage in this type of activity when overwhelmed with business. However, hiring a skilled professional is what consumers expect when contacting a reputable Nashville moving company. Day laborers don’t represent the cream-of-the-crop in the moving industry and as a result could damage your property. Do your research. When hiring a moving company ask if their movers are full-time. You can also check their industry affiliations, as certain organizations have strict guidelines movers must follow.

nashville — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 16:24:24 +0000

Often people with busy schedules during the week pick the weekend to make a move of any kind. Therefore, weekend moves in Nashville are somewhat hectic. Believe or not, with some Nashville moving companies the closer you get to the weekend the higher the hourly moving rate. I always recommend moving between Monday and Wednesday if possible. These days are usually slower and provide great savings. When calling to receive a moving quote simply ask the rate for the weekend and compare it with an early weekday rate. In some instances it’s worth taking off a weekday to save money.

Do I need additional mover’s insurance?

nashville — Mon, 29 Mar 2010 15:53:41 +0000

Do you have an upcoming move? The question regarding moving insurance is quite common. Moving companies in Nashville provide a basic amount of coverage per pound for each furniture piece. If your move in Nashville is a rather small move, additional coverage may be unwarranted. However, if you are concerned about receiving full replacement value for your belongings it might be a good idea to add additional covereage for your upcoming move. Your Nashville mover can provide you with a preferred vendor or you can secure your own moving insurance through your home owner’s insurance or rental insurance company. Securing full replacement value for your furnishings requires up-front payment for the insurance prior to the move. There is no fee for basic coverage provided by your Nashville mover. Weigh your options and make a decision that best suits your needs.
