Moving Tip of the Week: Furniture Accumulation

It's happened to the best of us. We live in an apartment or a condo for a few years, and when it's time to move to our new home, we have more stuff than we started out with. Since 2005, The Move Cheap Cincinnati Movers have been helping customers throughout the Cincinnati tri-state area move into their new homes. The #1 phrase we hear almost every time is, "I didn't know I had so much stuff." It's always a great idea to take this into consideration before you order your rental truck or moving services. The last time you moved, you may only have needed a 14 foot truck, and everything fit inside fine. The next time you move, you may need to consider a larger truck like a 17 or 24 foot. Families and lives change. Some people have children and acquire toys and child's furniture, while others may have started collecting knick knaks. Maybe you were married in the last year and received a good deal of wedding gifts or joined households. We often see folks order a truck that is too small or are required to make multiple trips because they had more furniture and boxes than they had the first time around.

Also remember that you can call us, your local Cincinnati moving company, to come to your home and give you a free estimate of how long your move should take and what size truck we recommend.

From all of us at the Move Cheap Cincinnati Movers, We hope your move is a great one!

Moving Tip of the Week: Labeling Boxes & Direction

As a Cincinnati moving company who has been serving the tri-state area since 2005, our wealth of moving knowledge has given us the ability to offer our customers the smoothest moves possible. One situation we often seem to run into is that customers sometimes forget to label their boxes. This is important for two major reasons.

First, labeled boxes help us load your truck properly. If we don't know what boxes are and aren't fragile, those contents could stand a good chance of sustaining damage.

Second, as we are unloading your truck, unmarked boxes will force us to ask you where each individual box will need to go in your new home. Often times this means our customers will have to open the box to remember its contents. This creates a longer unload time, and ultimately, more money a customer will have to pay.

Another tip to help speed up the moving process is to be sure you are present as we're bringing in each piece of furniture to your new home. Even though we are trained and experienced Cincinnati movers, we unfortunately were never given the gift of telepathy. Being present to tell us where you'd like each piece of your furniture will ensure a much speedier move. Nothing can slow down a move quicker than a mover trying to find the homeowner to ask where a piece of furniture goes.

One method our customers have used in the past was labeling each box and furniture item with a piece of colored tape that corresponds with a particular room. For example: red = living room, yellow = dining room, green = bedroom, etc. As always, organization will always save you money.

From all of us at the Move Cheap Cincinnati Movers, we hope your move is a great one!
