[quote=Anonymous]I am the PP currently moving, I got quotes from 3 different moving companies who offer full service moves. If you know anyone who has recently moved in your area or have friends of friends, ask them for their recommended movers—also pay attention to companies who are NOT recommended. For the quotes you want the person to come to your house and walk through all the spaces that will be moved—in door and outdoor, open all closets, storage spaces, etc. They will also ask questions. You want the quotes to see not only the different prices but also the different amount of time estimates. One outfit suggested 3 days of packing while another said 8 hours (I confirmed w the friend who had used the 8 hour people if that had been accurate for their house of a similar size.) Their quotes will also include packing material estimates. We are not in the DMV but a large Southern city and got quotes from 10 to 15k. I know a lot of DCUM will say that’a crazy or I did my move for 5k all in. You asked how to make it less stressful—this is how—with 2 kids, 2 full time jobs, and a tight timeline we decided to make this investment for our own sanity. Good luck! [/quote]
