  1. Just want to add this. make sure to read the fine print when hiring movers and check for any weird rules. I made the mistake of skipping it and just hired them right away. it cost me a lot since there are some stuff that they won’t do so I have to pay an extra for them to move it.

  2. You have some good tips for making moving easier. I agree that finding the right mover, and keeping them in the loop, needs to be a number one priority. This is especially true if you have a piano, or pool table, or something like that that needs to be moved.
