Three Key Things to Look for When Moving

The three key things to look for when choosing a residential mover in Utah are affordability, convenience, and recommendations/reviews.

Affordability: We all have a budget, and finding residential movers in Utah that meet that budget is very important. We recommend requesting a quote from at least three different companies to ensure you get the best deal. Also look for a company that doesn’t adjust pricing based on the highest bidder. Before calling, write a list of questions such as, “Do you require every item to be wrapped?”, “Are your services less expensive on certain days and times?”, “Do you have a minimum or maximum house size or number of rooms?”, “What items will increase my rate?”, “Are packing supplies included?”, etc.
Convenience: Is the residential Utah mover available when you need them? Many movers aren’t open late and charge extra for weekend moves. If this isn’t convenient for you, keep looking.

Do they have a vehicle capable of getting all of your beloved items in one trip? A trustworthy residential mover in Utah should be able to handle the average sized home in one trip without any problem, even though we tend to have larger families.

Are they in a convenient location? Most companies charge for their entire time on the road, not just how long it takes them to load and unload your items and drive from your old home to your new one.
Can the company provide packing supplies if you need them? This tends to be an additional charge no matter which residential Utah mover you choose, but it’s a great question to ask in case you need some bubble wrap or a box to protect loose items.

Is the moving company licensed and insured? If the answer is, “No”, keep looking. Companies that are licensed and insured are legally required to protect your property.

There’s plenty of residential movers in Utah, so don’t settle for less than what you want.

Recommendations/Reviews: This is very important. If you don’t receive a personal recommendation, reviews are also a great resource. Oftentimes, reviews can be even better than a personal recommendation because reviews provide recommendations from multiple sources instead of just one which makes it even easier to choose a residential mover in Utah that fits your needs. There’s nothing more reliable than a trusted friend with you best interest at heart. It’s also a good idea to review the complaint history of a company. You can do this on the Utah Department of Transportation’s website.
