Top six moving mistakes

Moving mistakes are common in people who have no moving experience. However, there are ways to avoid those mistakes and move your belongings in a safe and quick way. Check out the following list of mistakes people make when moving.

  1. Not planning and organizing

You should plan every step of your removal process about 3 months before your removal date. Make a schedule, create a budget plan, hire movers, take care of paper work, etc. proper planning is the key to having a successful removal and a positive moving experience. If you think you are not up to this task, hire professional moving company, like Titan Removals, for your removal in Redbridge for example, that will take care of planning and other tasks concerning removal.

  1. Not shopping around for a moving company

Sometimes people who move have no time to research moving companies and get several quotes, or on-site estimates. For a successful removal, you need to get quotes from multiple moving companies. You have so many choices but competition is fierce and if you do proper research you will find a company that will meet your requirements at affordable rate. Take your time and check testimonials, references and customer reviews, removal history, quotes, ask your friends for recommendation, check if they are licenced and DOT registered, etc.

  1. Hiring the cheapest moving company

Yes, we all want to save money when hiring a moving company, but hiring the company that is the cheapest is not the right solution. This is the easiest way to get scammed. You get your rate, but suddenly additional fees and charges start piling up. You end up paying double and they will return your belongings after you pay the bill. Be careful and, as mentioned above, do a thorough research of the moving company and try not to hire the one that offer cheap removals.

  1. Packing day before the removal

professional moversThis is probably the most common moving mistake. Packing requires time and preparations and you cannot pack everything one day before removal. You should start packing two weeks before removal, at least. First you need to figure out how much packing material you will need and how to pack and wrap your belongings, especially fragile items. It is recommended that you check tips on packing for removal to get the job done timely and properly.

  1. Not moving valuable and irreplaceable items with you

Another common moving mistake people make is deciding to load their valuable and irreplaceable items onto the moving truck instead of keeping them close to themselves. Such items, such as silverware, jewellery, important documents, and other should be in kept safe in your car during removal. This is because the insurance will not cover the cost of such items in case they get lost, damaged or stolen.

  1. Signing the contract without understanding it
  2. Rule #1: never sign a document you haven’t read and understood
  3. Rule #2: ask for a contract few days before removal
  4. Rule #3: if necessary, ask for help when it comes to understanding
  5. Rule #4: never sigh a blank document
  6. Rule #5: read everything, including the fine print

What is the type of town for you?

While we do not choose where to be born we have a lot more say in where we can live later when we are adults. Unfortunately even then many people do not decide themselves and have other factors determine the location of their settlement. Maybe only after retirement we can truly pick where to go. Since every person is different and there are many types of characters, there are also various cities in the world which offer us a number of things

Noisy people even as they get older are still pretty loud and lively. This does not necessarily mean that they will live in a large city but more often than not, this is the case. Move to a place such as Munich or Berlin if you are serious about your career and want to be somewhere densely populated. Another option is to go to Rio if you are fluent in Portuguese and love loudness. It is a great city to spend money and have fun but you should also watch out because the crime rates in Rio are alarming. It can be a dangerous place to have a house. If you look east then Tokyo is a buzzing place with many professional services and incredible business opportunities. Again the culture is different but you have the chance of making a name for yourself if you work with tenacity and respect.
