MOVING TO CHICAGO | Q & A

Planning to store collectibles, antiques or other valuables in self storage? These tips will help you ensure your items aren’t damaged during long-term storage.

It’s sometimes amazing how many misinformed rumours circulate about furniture mover companies and their policies or practices. Here we will put some of those myths out to pasture.

As much as most of us would prefer to avoid this being the case, sometimes when you are moving home you will need to place your possessions in storage for a period of time. There could be any number of reasons why that might be so. Perhaps there is a delay between you leaving one property and being able to take possession of the new one.

When you’re moving into your new home you might still encounter the odd problem or two. There are a few things you can do to help smooth things along and to use the empty house as an opportunity.

You may be wondering that packaging goods and transporting them is not such a daunting task, why then should you rely on a packaging agency or outsourcing the service? If this is the kind of doubt that you still have, it’s time to wake up and smell the coffee! Packaging is important and even marketers are accepting this fact.

You must choose packers and movers after verifying their address, phone number, reputation in the marketplace and reading testimonials. Choose a company which your or neighbor referred. Never hire a moving company that is asking for the lowest rate.
