When hiring local movers you need to make sure that they are FULLY equipped to handle not only moving your furniture, but protecting your current and new property as well. Too many times people hire a “cheap” mover hoping to save money. What ends up happening is the mover has an accident and rips the linoleum floor. Instantly costing you the price of the move. In some cases, beautiful wood floors receive a long scratch because the movers were using average moving equipment and didn’t provide floor runners/covers.
One of the main concerns that people have is hiring movers that charge by the hour. Will these movers be slow and end up costing you an arm and a leg. There are a few things you can do to make sure that you have a speedy move.

* Make sure that all odds n ends have been cleared out and are out of the movers way. This might not seem like it would slow things down too much, but if movers are repeatedly having to stop to move things in order to clear the pathway, time will add up.
* Do all you can to ensure that your movers can park as close as possible to the entrance door at both locations. Movers walk from the truck to the apt/house repeatedly, each extra step adds up in the end.
* If you are moving TO a storage unit. Make sure that you have handled all paperwork with the office. The last thing anyone wants is to pay movers to sit and wait for 30-45 min. Unfortunately this does happen.
* If you require a special permit from your city or building manager, please make sure to take care of this at least 1 week ahead. Some building managers are by the book and might not care if your movers are currently outside. Elevator use is sometimes restricted without managers approval.
