Should It Stay Or Should It Go?

in , , ,

Moving is the perfect time to purge old items and start fresh. However, this is easier said than done. Many people have a difficult time parting with the items they own. Our movers and packers often see people who go to the expense of moving an item then deciding whether to keep it.  This ends up costing extra money and time. Our next series of articles will discuss some strategies to determine whether an item should stay or go.

IS IT STILL FUNCTIONAL?

This is a question to consider for any items you wish to keep, especially furniture. If you have really nice, high quality furniture that is in excellent condition and still functional, it may be worth keeping. Some new furniture today is of inferior quality when compared to that of yesteryear. However, if the items are worn, beat up, and in need of repair, it may be worth selling, donating, or throwing away. This also applies to electronics, kitchenware, and any other items you are considering to take with you. If it does not function properly, it is probably not worth keeping.

DO YOU STILL HAVE A USE FOR IT?

When you begin organizing and inventorying items for your move, you will likely come across things in the backs of closets and bottoms of drawers that you honestly forgot even existed. When you do, carefully think about each item and try to determine if you still have a use for it. If you haven’t made your own butter in years, then you may want to consider parting with that butter churner.

Our next article will cover more strategies to determine whether to take an item with you when you move.

What Should I Do Before My Movers And Packers Arrive?

in , ,

No doubt, moving takes a lot of patience and planning. However, a packing and moving company can help alleviate much of that burden.  Experienced movers and packers are knowledgeable on how to get the job done quickly and efficiently. Being prepared for your packing and moving company can make a big difference.  Our next series of articles will cover some tasks you should complete before your movers and packers arrive.

GET ORGANIZED

Being organized is the single most effective way to ensure your movers and packers get in and out as quickly and efficiently as possible. Be sure to have the areas they need to work clear and ready for them to get to work.

REMOVE ITEMS YOU AREN’T TAKING WITH YOU

If there are items you do not want to take with you, be sure to either remove them from your home or set them aside in a separate area.  This will help prevent your movers and packers from accidently loading them onto the moving truck and transporting them to your new home.

PREPARE ELECTRONICS

Be sure to turn off all electronics and shut down all computers before your movers and packers arrive. It is also a good idea to unplug your electronics so they are ready to be packed.

Our next article will cover more ways you can prepare for the arrival of your packing and moving company.

Could It Be Time To Move?

in , , ,

We are continuing our series discussing indications that it may be time to make a change and move.  Our previous article covered how feeling cramped, having too much empty space, and cost increases could point to the need to move sometime in the near future. Here are some additional indicators that you many soon need to call a moving and storage company.

OUT OF WORK

If you find yourself out of work and unable to find a job to support your standard of living, then it may be time to consider moving to a different area where you can find good paying work in your field. If you absolutely love the area, you may need to consider taking whatever job you can and moving into a less expensive home.

NO SUPPORT SYSTEM

It is important to have a strong support system. When offered a job far away from their family and/or friends, most people are so excited that they may not realize what they could be losing. If you were accustomed to hanging out with friends every weekend or having Sunday dinner with your family and are now finding yourself feeling bummed out and staying at home a lot, it may be time to consider moving somewhere closer to the people who mean the most in your life.

TIME FOR CHANGE

Sometimes we just get into a rut and feel the urge for change.  If you feel like you could use a change, then it may be time to start looking around to see where you might want to settle next.

3 Guys Moving is a premier moving and storage company located in Tampa, Florida.

in , , ,

Have you been bit by the moving bug lately?

FEELING CRAMPED

If you are starting to feel really cramped in your space, then it may be time to consider looking for something more spacious. Living in a cramped space can be frustrating, even affecting your mood, sleep, etc.

DOWNSIZING

Maybe your roommate has decided to move on, or perhaps you are a new empty nester.  If you find that you have too much space, then it may be time to consider saving money by downsizing.  Living in a smaller but comfortable abode means less cleaning and work, leaving more time for fun!

COST INCREASES

If rent increases are becoming too much for your budget to handle, then it may be time to consider moving. Changes in insurance rates and taxes can also take their toll. If your rent or mortgage is so high that you don’t have any extra funds to spend on leisure or other activities, then it may be time to consider moving.

Our next article will cover more indications that it may be time to consider calling both a real estate agency and a full service moving company.

What Items Cannot Be Transported By A Full Service Moving Company?

in , ,

As we discussed in a previous article, movers and packers can handle everything from the planning of your move and the actual move itself to unpacking and setting up furniture and other items in your home or office.  There are some items, however, that a full service moving company is not able to pack or transport.  Let’s take a look:

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS

Most of us store some type of hazardous materials in our garage or storage shed.  A full service moving company will not transport materials such as gasoline, chlorine, chemicals, corrosives, insect/rat poisons or other substances that could leak, spill, or pose any type of health risk.

FLAMMABLE MATERIALS

Full service movers will not transport any type of flammable materials for safety reasons. These include, but are not limited to, fireworks, oxygen, propane, lighter fluid, paint, and matches.

It is also recommended that you transport items that are expensive, sensitive, or have sentimental value yourself rather than sending them with your full service movers.  These may include important papers, jewelry, photos, firearms, ammunition, etc.

3 Guys Moving has been a preferred moving and storage company providing services to satisfied customers for more than three decades.  Our long distance and local movers have the experience and integrity to ensure your move goes smooth. Don’t trust just any full service movers with your next move. You want a moving and storage company with a proven track record of customer satisfaction.  We invite you to experience what makes us different from typical moving companies.  Give 3 Guys Moving a call today.

Easing the Stress of Your Out-Of-State Move

in , , ,

We are continuing our series on tips to help make your out-of-state move easier. Our previous article covered the importance of planning a visit to your intended destination, exploring employment opportunities, and learning about schooling options before you commit to making the move.  Today, we will look at three more tips to consider.

DOWNSIZE

Transporting your belongings is among one of the biggest stressors of moving.  If you are able to downsize before your movers and packers arrive, it will not only help ease the stress of moving but will also help you purge items you don’t need, allowing you to have a fresh new start.

INVENTORY

Make an inventory of the items you plan to take with you when you move. This will not only help keep you organized, but your full service moving company will be better able to provide you with an accurate quote and best service possible if they have a clear idea of what and how much they will be moving.

HIRE A FULL SERVICE MOVING COMPANY

Planning and executing an out of state move can be challenging. Hiring a full service moving company to handle everything for you will help ease the stress and burdens of moving yourself, as we have discussed in previous articles. Unfortunately, there are many moving companies that are not reputable. It is important to hire a full service moving company such as 3 Guys Moving that has a proven track record and has been in business for a long time.

Tips to Make Your Out-of-State Move Easier

in , , ,

Moving out of state can be both fun and intimidating at the same time. Since you will likely be living in your new state for awhile, it is best to make sure the area you plan to relocate to is a good fit for you and your family.  As a full service moving company, 3 Guys Moving has provided services to hundreds of families re-locating to a different state.  We’ve compiled a list of suggestions and tips you may want to consider if you are planning a long distance move.

VISIT THE AREA

We live in an online world where you can buy, sell, and rent property over the internet. As a result, more and more people who relocate to a new area do not actually visit before they make the move. This can be a huge pitfall because what sounds great online may not turn out to be a good fit.  Consider planning a visit to explore the area, becoming familiar with nearby shopping, entertainment, schools and other amenities.

EXPLORE EMPLOYMENT OPTIONS

Consider exploring all of the nearby employment options before making a move. It is recommended that you have a job secured before moving. Many employers will be flexible with the starting date if you inform them that you are moving from out of state. If you are unable to land a job prior to your move, then consider lining up some interviews.

LEARN ABOUT SCHOOLING OPTIONS

If you have school aged children, it is a good idea to explore schooling options before committing to moving to a new area, especially out of state. Some families choose public schools while others prefer private options. You want to make sure that the options available fit your family and educational objectives of your children.

Our next article will cover more tips that can help make your out-of-state move easier.
