Moving your home or office can really be an overwhelming task.  You need to counter the emotional stress related to relocation as well as handle all the practical aspects of organizing a smooth move.

Stacking the packed items in orderly fashion, arranging a transport for moving the items, loading the items into moving van and unloading the items etc are basic things that you may need to handle while relocating. You will even need to ensure that all your utility bills are paid and all your services are disconnected on the day of your move.  Being on top of things can be difficult especially when it comes to relocation. It is therefore a good idea to choose a moving services Christchurch company for your relocation.

You can find list of moving services Christchurch companies in your local listings. It is a good idea to list down the phone numbers and website details of these companies and then browse through them. Ensure that you look for different types of services offered by them. Match the service offerings with your requirements and call the service providers who fit the bill. Once you have established a contact with each of these companies, ensure that you provide them a proper description of all the services that you require. Specify any special services like valet unpacking, valuation or insurance etc that you may be lookingfor. This will help the service provider in giving you an appropriate quote.
It is best that you request the moving company to send their representative for inspecting your belongings before obtaining a quote from them as it will ensure that there are no surprises or additional charges on the day of the move. Ask for a quote that provides detailed break-up of each and every service as it will help you in adding or deleting any service as per your choice. You could also ask the company if they offer any special packages or discounts. This can help you in saving certain amount of money for your move.

Do read all the terms and conditions of the company before you sign the dotted line.  Do not forget to check for valuation and insurance services to ensure smooth move. Last but not the least; also check the company’s feedback on consumer forums to understand the overall reputation of the company. Don’t fall prey to companies that offer lower quotes and then provide inflated bills on pretext of several additional services. When in doubt, ask your friends or family to refer any reliable moving services company that they may know. Start the process of arranging for a move at least eight weeks in advance to avoid last minute rush.
