Using Movers for Loading and Unloading

There are many times when a customer will already have their moving truck ready to go, and they just need help with loading or unloading. In this case, you can always inquire with a local Dallas moving company about their policy concerning this matter. Even though some Dallas movers do provide this service, not all of them will do so. For this reason, it is a good idea to begin looking for a moving company that will do this for you with plenty of time. Before you begin calling around, however, there are certain things that you need to know in order to be ready to answer any questions that your movers may ask you.
 
1. What is the size of your storage unit?
This is going to be the first thing that your Dallas movers will ask you before they can give you a price for how much their service will cost. It is important that you know the specific size of your storage unit since it will give the Dallas movers an idea of how many movers they will need to send out to your location. If your storage is only halfway full or completely stacked with boxes or furniture, then you will also want to let your Dallas moving company know. It is never a good idea to lie to your movers because they will not be prepared for your move; therefore, it will end up costing you more time and money. Sometimes a moving company might actually end up cancelling your move if you are not honest with them since they are not prepared, and they would rather not risk it.
 
2. What exactly will you be moving?
If you are moving furniture out of a home or apartment and loading it or unloading it from a moving truck that you rented, then the best idea is to have a detailed list of everything that will be loaded or unloaded. With this list, you can rest assured that you will be provided the correct number of movers for the job. Moreover, it also protects you from any misunderstandings. By providing your Dallas movers with a detailed list that has been approved by the office, you can rest assured that they will move everything on it. Moreover, it also helps you keep organized so that you do not forget to load everything during your move.
 
3. Do you have any type of special furniture?
Special items like pianos, pool tables, safes, grandfather clocks, and extremely heavy items always require special attention and moving supplies to move. For this reason, it is important that you are honest with your Dallas movers about these items. Once again, you may find that your Dallas moving company may cancel on you if you do not inform them ahead of time about these items. Even if your moving company does not cancel, then they will simply not move your special items since they probably will not have the tools or man power to do so. For this reason, it is always important to be honest with your Dallas movers from the beginning. In case a certain Dallas moving company is not able to provide you with all of the services you need, then you can always look for another company that will better accommodate all of your needs.
