Self Service Moving
Most often, we feel that the moving services available to us are limited to either hiring a truck or hiring someone to do all the packing and then haul our things to our new destination. Well, self service moving is a great concept that adds to our options.
Self service movers are those that give you the climatised crates to do your own packing. They then pick up the crate and drop it off at your new location for you to do the unpacking at your leisure. Some self service packers can even bring a 28 foot trailer to your home. It is up to you to use the packing room you require and you will be charged according to the linear footage of space you use.
Self storage prices can also depend on the number of crates you use and how far they need to go. Crate sizes vary according to companies but the average ones can hold up to 3000 lbs.
Something you need to remember is to insure your belongings before the move. Although self service is a cheaper option, you should consider insuring your belongings before you move. It's always good to be safer than sorry.
Self Service moving comes in handy when you need your own time and space to get your packing done. This is an ideal way to get your packing done at leisure. However, this service does not come with any help or advice when it comes to packing valuable artifacts.
