The 6 Best Reasons to Hire Professional Movers

No matter who you are, everyone wants a safe, easy, cheap, and stress-free move, right? Some people decide not to hire professional movers for exactly these reasons. They’re worried about hiring untrustworthy movers… or they think planning dates for movers will be an extra hassle… or they don’t want to spend the money… or they think managing people other than their household will just be a headache. 

With a professional moving company, the opposite is actually true. Hiring movers can make relocation a breeze. There are many reasons to hire professional movers, but here are 6 of the absolute best ones. 

Reason #6: Movers Keep You Focused

Packing is a real chore, and it’s easy to procrastinate on it. However, if you procrastinate too long, you’ll end up trying to pack and move everything you own in a day or two. Now that’s stressful. By hiring movers, you have a timeline well in advance. 

If you choose to hire your movers to pack, as well, that’s another thing off your plate. All you have to do is organize your belongings and clean the rooms as they go. Again, having a timeline with all of this keeps you focused. You’ll be moving at a steady but relaxed pace. 

Reason #5: Movers Keep You Organized

Movers are professionals. That means they have things down to a science. They’ll know how to pack boxes or a truck. That means they’ll know which rooms things belong in with less management required. 

Hiring movers means you’ll be able to cut down on the chaos that comes with moving. Instead, things will be where you need them to be, when you need them to be there. 

Reason #4: Movers Keep You Covered

Professional movers have insurance. Sadly, your buddy Dave does not. No hate to Dave, but if the frame from your wedding photo, your couch, or your favorite serving platter gets broken in transit, insurance will cover it. If Dave accidentally breaks something, you or he would have to pay for it, and no one wins in that situation.

Reason #3: Movers Save You Time

Again, movers are professionals. That means they’re efficient. Carrying your couch or your grandmother’s piano will leave you sweaty and stressed as you try to navigate it around corners or stairs. Movers have carried dozens of couches, so they know how to do it effectively. 

They have the strength and know-how to get everything from a flatscreen to a box of books loaded quickly and smoothly.

Reason #2: Movers Save You Stress

When you’re moving, there’s a lot to juggle. Paperwork from your new home or rental, costs, caring for family members or pets, and dealing with a job. Hiring a mover means there’s one less thing on your plate. You won’t have to coordinate friends or family to help load and unload, or pack and unpack. 

Instead, you can focus on settling into your new home and routine as soon as possible. 

Reason #1: Movers Save You MONEY

Finally, the best reason to hire movers on this list. It may seem counterintuitive, but movers actually save you money in the long run. A DIY move may seem cheaper, but costs can get unexpectedly out of hand. 

Buying extra boxes to needing a rented truck longer than you thought or even property damage can really rack up the money you spend. Not to mention, when doing heavy lifting you aren’t used to, it’s easy to injure yourself. The cost of getting treatment or taking time off work is well worth hiring movers. 

What About Trust?

We get it, you need someone you can trust with your prized possessions during this vulnerable time. There are plenty of horror stories out there of movers that break or lose things and don’t bother to fix it. Or worse, they overcharge and then don’t provide the services they claim. 

You trust your family and friends, but they aren’t professionals. There are so many reasons to hire trustworthy, professional movers. The most important one? The peace of mind that comes from knowing we’re here to get you safely settled into your new home in no time.
