As one of the most stressful experiences life has to offer, moving comes with many challenges. Those challenges only increase when you relocate across long distances, such as to a new state or across the country. Not only are you uprooting your entire life, but you also have many more things to consider, from protecting your furniture to finding storage. In order to ensure a successful, and stress-free, move, you should hire professional long-distance movers to help. Here is why:
Enjoy experienced guidance
Your experience with long-distance moves may be limited, but your Texas mover’s experience should not be. A professional business will have years, or even decades, of successful long-distance moves behind them. As a result, they should be able and willing to guide you through every step of the moving process.
How do you keep your items safe during the move? Where can you safely store items until you need them? What is the best process for packing up your belongings? A long-distance mover can help you make these decisions.
Access comprehensive resources
In addition, hiring long-distance movers can put a wide array of services at your fingertips. With professional assistance, you can take many aspects of your relocation off your plate and off your mind.
At Ward North American, for example, our highly-trained teams and extensive resources allow us to handle every aspect of your move, no matter how complex. Here are just some of the services available for your interstate or cross-country move:
- Full-service packing
- Fragile-only packing
- Custom crating of hard-to-pack items
- Vehicle shipping
- Piano shipping
- Short- or long-term storage
- Shipment protection coverage
- Third party services (e.g. Disassembling, assembling, etc.)
Use industry-standard equipment
If you try to move long distances on your own, you will be responsible for purchasing and using all of your own packing supplies and equipment. While you can make subpar packing and crating work over short distances, you may prefer to have higher-grade materials and the right boxes to protect your valuable items when moving many miles.
Hiring professional long-distance movers makes it easy to access the industry-standard equipment you need. An experienced relocation partner will have the tools, and the training, necessary to safely convey any item of any size or value to your new home, without damage. Consider the following equipment we provide every customer:
- Crating customized to the size and shape of your items
- Padding and specialized equipment for safely moving heavy furniture
- High-quality boxes and packing materials
- Shipment tracking
- And more
Save time and stress
Moving is hard enough as it is. You should be focused on the details of transitioning to a new job, scoping out a new neighborhood, securing the right housing and saying goodbye to your loved ones in your current city. What you should not be trying to do is pack, hire moving trucks, load, drive, unload, store or worry about timelines and budgets.
Save yourself times, stress, hassle, and effort with a professional long-distance mover. These experts can take over many of the most difficult aspects of your relocation while freeing you up to focus on the most important parts of getting your new life started.
For example, at Ward North American, we can pack for you while you arrange your flight. We can secure your fragile items while you say your goodbyes. We can hunt down boxes and packing materials while you hunt down housing.
Insure your belongings against loss
If you try to move yourself, you are responsible for any damage that occurs to your belongings in the process. That could add up to hundreds or thousands of dollars in unexpected expenses.
When you choose professional San Antonio movers to help you relocate to a new city or state, you have the opportunity to partake in their insurance protection. Your mover should provide a basic insurance package for your move, with the option of adding more comprehensive protection as needed. That is peace of mind that is hard to beat.
Get help with your moving timeline
A move involves many parts and logistics that must be taken into account. A moving timeline and checklist can be essential tools in making sure everything gets done by moving day. A professional long-distance mover can help you create such a timeline.
Their intimate knowledge of the moving process, for example, can equip them to identify tasks you may not have considered, or cause them to make recommendations that can make your move easier.
The right professional can provide you with a schedule that includes the date of your move, the schedule for packing and loading, the delivery date of your belongings, and more. At Ward North American, we also give you a single point of contact to ease communication and so you are never surprised on the day you move.
If you are relocating across distances, consider Ward North American for your residential movers. We have the highly-trained staff, impeccable approach and meticulous care you need to successfully and seamlessly complete a relocation of any complexity.
