District of Columbia, DC Long Distance Movers: Money Saving Guide Launched

Movers.com, an online directory specializing in free moving quotes, has published a new guide to reducing costs when completing a long-distance move.

With its latest guide, Movers.com outlines six key areas where money can be saved when planning to move cross-country. Covering everything from packing materials to scheduling, the guide helps movers reduce expenses for an affordable, seamless move.

According to research from Today’s Homeowners, the current average cost of a long-distance move stands at $4,890, but this can vary widely based on moving distance, volume of items, and the type of service selected.

As explained in the guide, a good way to lower these costs is to complete a DIY move. Instead of hiring a full-service moving company, the guide advises readers to pack their own belongings, calling on the support of friends or relatives to help transport items with a rented truck.

Alternatively, movers could opt for a self-service move, which constitutes DIY packing without the added pressure of transportation. Movers.com recommends utilizing freight services, such as PODS or U-Pack, which provide storage containers for customers to fill. The company then transports these to the client’s new location, removing the stress of having to hire and navigate their own rental truck. “Freight services allow you to pay by the linear foot so that you only pay for the storage space you need,” says the guide. “This can be a great way to move across-country on a budget without having to drive a rental truck.”

Recognizing that a DIY move is not always feasible, Movers.com offers support through its online moving directory. Here, individuals can compare quotes from up to seven local moving companies, checking reviews and company backgrounds to make more informed decisions. “Avoid low-ball offers and cheap flat-rate prices and be wary of too-good-to-be-true estimates,” warns the guide. “These moving quotes can go grossly over budget or with unadvertised add-ons.”

Further advice includes selling or recycling unwanted household items to reduce moving inventories and scheduling moves to coincide with the off-peak season, between September and May, where rates are often decreased.
