Types of Moves
Moves are classified as local, intrastate, or interstate depending on distance.
Local moves: A local move is a move within a 50-mile radius of your current residence within the same state.
Intrastate moves: An intrastate move is a move over 50 miles from your current residence within the same state.
Interstate moves: An interstate move is a move to another state.

The timing of your move
The timing of your move is extremely important and requires great attention to detail. Do you have to be out before the closing? Does your building have time restrictions? Are you closing on two homes in one day? When you speak to your sales representative, let them know about any questions and concerns that you may have on timing requirements.

The cost of your move
The cost of your move is determined by several factors
• The type of move ( local or long distance )
• The amount and type of goods and furniture you are moving.
• The distance of the move
• The layout of both properties ( stairs, elevator, hills, narrow streets )
• Your temporary storage requirements
• Additional services ( packing, crating fine arts, pool tables, grand pianos )

The estimate process begins with a representative from the moving company performing a physical inspection of what is to be moved, and what services are to be performed. The cost basis for the move is either hourly, or weight and mileage, depending on the move distance. Do not use a moving company that will not do an estimate in person. This will only create problems on moving day.

ADDITIONAL SERVICES
Packing, crating, appliance service, taking down chandeliers are a few of the additional services you may require. For more information, you should speak to your sales representative for their recommendations.
