Keep Away From Moving Day Troubles


Nobody looks forward to moving an whole home full of cherished belongings. It's a monumental task, capped off by a dreaded loading and unloading of all your possible possessions. Hopefully, these suggestions will prevent much of the worry.

First, do your homework. Of course, referrals are the greatest way to find a good moving company, but you could also get recommendations from on-line services like Angie's List or Service Magic. You can verify with the American Moving & Storage Assoc. to see if the company is certified and/or licensed.

Make preparations with the movers 4 to 6 weeks in advance of the moving day. This is mainly true if you're thinking of moving during the peak summer months. Schedule the move for the middle of the month. Those dates are naturally less busy, and you are more likely to get a top-notch crew.

Some moving companies will provide you with the boxes and packing material you'll need (for a price), but you can easily buy these items yourself through the Yellow Pages  or from self-storage facilities. Boxes come in 4 sizes: skinny boxes for framed pictures; small boxes for important things like books; middle-sized boxes for china, glassware, etc.; and large boxes for linens and light-weight items.

Label every box with a list of contents & with the room that you want it brought to. Be present during the packing and keep an account of everything. And update your contact information. The mover should know how to reach you during the move in case a problem comes up.

There are a few things to look out for: if a mover requires you to pay a big deposit to "hold the date" or to "make sure prompt service", find another mover; don't necessarily go with the lowest price - especially if it's substantially lower than your other estimates. Lastly, find out if you're dealing with a broker who will charge a fee up front and then select another mover to actually perform the work. This is a middle man you don't need.

If you notice that a box is injured at delivery, open it in the mover's presence and have them validate the condition of the articles in the box. Note any damage on the inventory form. Even if you don't notice any damage right away, you have 9 months after delivery to file a claim. 

If you're not pleased, file a Household Goods Consumer Complaint with the U.S. Dept. of Transportation. The mover must acknowledge the claim within 30 days and deny it or make a settlement offer within 120 days.

Once the movers have left, unpack the fundamentals quickly, then take your time with the rest. Don't try to do too much right away. Enjoy your new home.
