Several construction progress will cause slow moving traffic in Corpus Christi throughout the next few days, your Corpus Christi relocation specialists will be avoiding several affected areas this weekend to ensure speedy service to our customers. If you’d rather not squeeze extra grooves into the stress-reliever that is your steering wheel, steer clear of Southbound Ocean Drive near Ropes Street.

Need pick-up and delivery?

Furniture stores are buzzing with consumers purchasing new dining room, living room and even bedroom pieces just in time for the holidays. Although the economy has shown gradual signs of improvement, people are still looking for ways to cut corners. When adding up the price of their purchase, delivery is almost always a fee consumers try to avoid. However, sometimes its not the fee as it is the delivery date. If you purchase an item today and expect it delivered tomorrow, in most instances a furniture store can’t comply. When you encounter this situation, consider calling a local Corpus Christi mover to pick-up your newly-purchased item and deliver it to your home. Pick-up and delivery can be same day or next day.

Do you want a precise moving quote?

Below are list of questions your mover will ask. I’ve also included questions you should ask your Corpus Christi mover. Review the following and save:

  1. What day are you looking to move in Corpus Christi? Supply the moving consultant with your moving date of choice. From time to time to time the day of the week you choose could determine a higher or lower hourly rate. Ask the consultant if you chose another day or time of the month would the rate fluctuate.
  2. Which zip code are you moving from and to? Provide the moving consultant with the zip code of where your move will originate and also the zip code of your destination location. This information helps the consultant determine the mileage for your move. Some moving companies charge travel time from their building to you and from you. Ask about travel time.
  3. Do you know the approximate square footage of your home? Give the moving consultant the square footage of your apt/condo/home or office. This helps in determining the size of the moving vehicle to send you.
  4. How many bedrooms and living spaces are you moving? Furnish the number of bedrooms and living spaces (i.e. den, dining room, living room). This information also assists in determining the size vehicle and also equipment to bring. If you’re not moving every room, let them know.
  5. Are there any stairs involved with your move? Let the moving consultant know if there are stairs involved in the move. Some moving companies charge for stairs, some don’t. Either way this helps them plan accordingly. Ask if they charge for stairs.
  6. Are there any large fragile items that you will be moving? Notify the moving consultant of any large fragile items they will need to move for you. For instance, if you’re moving a piano, pool table, grandfather clock, large flat screens these items warrant extra special care. Some moving companies do charge extra for moving these items. Ask about it.

Details, Details, Details…Corpus Christi movers pay attention.

When moving locally, across state lines or even cross-country it’s important to employ the services of an experienced Corpus Christi mover who pays attention to details. Going the extra mile to ensure your belongings are properly wrapped, packed and loaded onto the truck is what a detailed mover does. Naturally you’re more relaxed when you know your valuables are in good hands. Search for quality movers in your area, make sure they are able to handle the details associated with your move.

Several moving companies make promises, but aren’t able to deliver. Look at the feedback from their clients. Were they satisfied? Consider the reviews, plus the level of comfort you felt with the initial contact and then book your move.

The moving season is just about to begin.

Much like rush hour traffic, individuals and families will begin making moves across town, state lines and even internationally. The summer months are an ideal time for consumers to focus on a large project of this nature. If you’re planning a move in Corpus Christi this summer, you should make sure you book your move ASAP. As time goes on the traffic jam will intensify and possibly cause problems for those in need of a certain time frame for their move in or out of Corpus Christi. Nevertheless, Corpus Christi movers are well too familiar with the summer moving maze and thus prepare accordingly. Contact your Corpus Christi mover today for a free moving quote.

Moving a Student?

Soon, universities all across the country will have thousands upon thousands of students moving into thir dorm houses or apartments nearby. Moving into a dorm room or an entire apartment can be quite a trouble. When it comes to college students, your move could be either long distance or a local move depending on where your student chooses to continue their education. However, taking the time to follow these simple How-to’s will make the job much easier.

How- To:

1. Plan! It’s hard to make something easy when you don’t plan ahead. Chart out your travel route, assign who will take what items where, move large items first, and

2. Make a detailed list of what you need to buy for the apartment. It’s hard to take a shower without a shower curtain. It’s even harder to enjoy a burger without ketchup. So be sure not to forget anything.

3. Take the time to organize and carefully pack items based on weight, content, and how fragile they can be.

4. Invite some friends to help you move. Everyone needs a helping hand, so get as many as you can.

5. Make a “Care Kit” to make the move easier for them. They may be moving away, but they still want to feel like part of the family.
