Conduct a Site Visit

Inviting your corporate moving professionals out to survey your premises will help them assess the job accurately. During this visit, discuss any specific requirements or potential challenges that may arise during the move. Once you’ve addressed all concerns and questions, it’s time to discuss pricing and schedule your move.

Prepare for the Move

The success of your move will depend on careful planning and coordination. As you prepare for the move, plan the sequence and flow of operations. Coordinate your corporate moving company to minimize disruptions to your business activities. Schedule any required inspections, permits, or utility transfers well in advance to avoid last-minute delays. Communication is key during this stage, so ensure that all staff and stakeholders are well-informed about the move. Provide clear instructions on labeling and organizing assets, managing expectations, and addressing any concerns or questions.

When it comes to running a successful business, every detail matters. From marketing strategies to efficient supply chains, businesses are continuously striving for improvement. However, one aspect that is often overlooked is the importance of streamlined logistics. Whether you’re relocating to a new office or expanding your operations, hiring a professional corporate moving company can be a game-changer for your business.

Understanding Your Business Needs

Before diving into the process of hiring a corporate moving company, it’s essential to have a clear understanding of your business needs. Start by identifying the scope of your move. Assess the size and volume of goods that need to be transported. Are there any fragile items or special handling requirements? Creating a detailed inventory will help you categorize your goods based on packing materials, priority, and storage needs. This inventory will also ensure you don’t leave anything behind or experience delays during the move.

College Housing Tips

College Housing Tips

in , , , ,

Choosing college housing can be both exciting and overwhelming. However, taking the time to consider your preferences, budget, and other important factors can help ensure that you make a smart decision that will benefit you throughout your college experience.

Remember to weigh pros and cons, evaluate all housing options, set a budget, and pursue financial aid options, and always think about location, safety, and other essential amenities that will make your new home away from home feel like the right fit. Let’s take a look at two important steps to take in the process of choosing college housing.

Budgeting

Once you have decided on a housing option, it is crucial to examine the costs and create a financial plan. Make sure to factor in the rent or mortgage, utilities, Wi-Fi, groceries, and other essential expenses before signing a lease or agreement. You also may wish to factor in the cost for a full service moving and storage company to help you with your move-in, move-out, and storage if needed. Accounting for these expenses up front can help you create a realistic budget and properly manage your finances throughout the school year.

Exploring Financial Aid Options

Many colleges offer a range of financial aid options specifically for housing including scholarships, grants, and loans. Make sure to research these options and apply for them early. These options can help you alleviate some of the financial burden of college housing.

3 Guys Moving is proud to offer our expert moving services to college students.

Types of College Housing: Making an Informed Choice

Types of College Housing: Making an Informed Choice

in , , , , ,

There are many choices when it comes to college housing. While it is best to take time to visit the college and personally tour the options available, sometimes doing so is not possible, especially if you’re attending college far away from home. Regardless of what type of housing you decide on, it can be helpful to engage a full service moving company to handle the move-in and move-out processes. Let’s take a look at different housing options to consider and some of the advantages/disadvantages of each.

On-Campus Housing

Dormitories and residence halls are a popular choice, especially for first-year college students. They offer several benefits, such as affordable living costs, opportunities to meet new people, and easy access to campus amenities. However, they do have their downsides, such as strict rules and regulations, limited space, and some privacy concerns. Make sure to carefully consider all of the pros and cons of dorm living before making a decision.

Off-Campus Housing

Another popular option for college housing is off-campus apartments, homes, or shared spaces. Off-campus housing allows you to have more independence, privacy, and freedom over your living situation. It also allows you to explore different neighborhoods and choose a living situation that caters to your unique needs. You can live alone, with roommates, or find a housing situation that mirrors your personality and preferences. However, off-campus housing comes with a few downsides, such as higher rent, further commutes, and fewer on-campus amenities.

Our next article will offer some college housing tips as you embark on this new adventure.

More On College Moves

in , , ,

Moving your kids to and from college can be quite stressful. However, having a reputable and qualified moving and storage company can ease much of the anxiety that goes along with a college move. We are continuing our series of articles outlining some tips to help you plan a college move. Our previous articles covered the importance of finding out the assigned move-in and move-out dates, hiring an experienced moving and storage company, planning what items to bring, and doing a walkthrough before and after your move. Today, we will conclude our series with a few more thoughts to consider.

MOVING DAY!

Moving day is finally here!  Be sure to have a clear area for your movers and packers to work when they arrive.  Keep smaller children and pets out of the way to avoid accidental injury. Have the list of items you plan to bring handy and check items off the list as your full service movers pack them in the moving truck. Once your movers and packers have everything secured in the truck, they will proceed to your dorm, apartment, etc. If you are moving out, then the full service movers from your moving and storage company can either bring the items to the location you designate (i.e., home, another on-campus or off-campus domicile, etc.) or to a secure storage facility for safe keeping.

HAVE AN “UNPACKING” PLAN

The full service movers from your moving and storage company will bring your belongings and furniture to the area(s) you designate within your dorm, apartment, etc. Movers and packers can assemble furniture and unpack your items for you. If you wish to do this yourself, then it is a good idea to have a plan. Think about the essentials and make sure those are unpacked and/or assembled first. Examples of essential items include medications, clothing, toiletries, computer, tablet, etc. Planning your unpacking strategy helps keep things organized and can alleviate a lot of stress.

3 Guys Moving is a preferred moving and storage company with experience in handling all types of moves. Our long distance and local movers stand ready to assist you and provide you with excellent service and care. If you have an upcoming move, we invite you to experience the 3 Guys Moving difference.

Planning Your College Move

in , ,

We are continuing our series of articles designed to help parents plan a college move. Our previous article covered the importance of knowing the move-in and move out dates. We also discussed hiring a packing and moving company to handle the move.  Today, we will discuss more recommendations from our professional movers and packers.

PLAN WHAT TO BRING

It is always a good idea to carefully plan what you want to bring. Space is often limited in dorms and apartments, so you are likely not going to be able to bring everything you own. Make a list of what you want to take with you. Start with the “must haves” such as clothing, computer, tablet, electronics, etc.  Then, list out the “would like to have” items.  Set all of these items aside for when your movers and packers arrive.

DO A WALKTHROUGH BEFORE AND AFTER YOUR MOVE

It is important to do a complete walkthrough of the dorm, apartment, etc. you plan to live in before your movers and packers arrive with your belongings and after you move out. Before you move in, note any issues such as holes in walls, loose shelving, faulty electrical outlets and switches, stains in carpet, plumbing issues, etc. and report it to your building manager and/or landlord. Take photos if possible.

Our next article will cover some final thoughts on planning a college move.
