How Do Moving Companies Work/What Do They Do

When it comes to moving, you may be considering hiring a moving company to take off some of the stress off of you and your family. This is always a great idea, as most moving companies are highly experienced and have an efficient process to get the job done quickly and safely. 

However, many people are unaware of what really goes into a move, or what kind of professional services moving companies provide to make the process easier for everyone involved. At First Class Moving and Storage, one of the most trusted Florida movers, we’ve earned a reputation for our high-standards in moving services. As a top-rated Miami/Sunrise and Tampa moving company, we’re passionate about the work that we do and the many services we provide to make moving a more enjoyable experience. 

In this article, we’re sharing some of the ways that our team can help you move—and why you should consider professional moving services for your next relocation.

Inventory Creation and Timeline Planning 

The first thing that any moving company is going to do before they start the actual move is inventory your items. This allows both you and your moving company to make sure that everything you need to be moved is accounted for in your new home after the move.

A full-service moving company will also help you create a timeline for your moving project. A timeline is very useful to help you plan a smooth, no-stress, and well-organized move—and to avoid rushing at the last minute or suffering through a high-stress moving experience due to bad organization and planning.

Full -Service Packing

The next step is going to be packing your belongings. This can be done with your own boxes or boxes supplied by the moving company. If you choose full-service packing options, your moving team will pack everything for you—while you focus on everything else you need to do to prepare for your move.Professional movers can also provide unpacking services and furniture assembly—services that can be incredibly useful for people without a lot of time to do this on their own. If you’re hoping for a seriously low-stress move, choose this option for the most relaxed experience possible.

Custom Protection for Damage-Proof Moving 

This custom protection can include bubble wrap, plastic wrap, moving blankets or any other items that help keep your larger items protected. This will allow for easier logistics and will help to prevent anything from getting damaged.

Vehicle Checks and Inspections

Before your actual move, the moving company will thoroughly inspect the moving vehicles to ensure they are mechanically sound before loading up your items. The last thing anyone wants during a move is something to happen to a moving vehicle mid-route, especially if you’re moving far away.

Lifting, Loading, and Delivery

Once the loading vehicles are ready, the moving company will load up your belongings into the vehicles. This will be done with precision for an efficient fit and to make sure that everything stays safe and sound inside the moving vans or trucks.

The moving company will then drive the moving vehicles to your new home so that you do not have to deal with driving a large, rented moving truck. These drivers are trained experts on driving large vehicles and operating them safely.

Unpacking Your Belongings

Once your items have arrived at your new home, the moving company will then unpack your belongings and help you set them where they need to go.

For those with larger items such as big furniture or appliances, most moving companies will set them down in the room that you need them to prevent you from having to do any heavy lifting that you don’t need to.

Clean-Up and Debris Removal

All professional moving companies will clean up any mess left behind by their crew. This is a huge help for those who do not have the means (or energy) to dispose of the trash left behind from a move. If you need debris removal services added to your project, most full-service companies will offer this too.
