Moving 101 Helps Plan Your Move from Start to Finish


Moving can be a big, time consuming headache. Of course, you have options when you’re planning your move. But the more time and effort you try to save, the more it’s going to cost you. Moving 101 helps you weigh these options and plan every step of your move.

The tool comes from previously mentioned HireAHelper, a site that lets you compare the costs of various moving companies. Moving 101 walks you through the time and costs of the whole process, though, beyond just hiring movers.

First, you select what kind of move you’re going for: DIY, full service, or a hybrid of the two. It’ll give you an estimated total cost of each option, and as you navigate through any one of them, you’ll get a breakdown of how much time it will take you to plan, pack, and unload, and how much it will cost you to hire help. You can also compare the costs of renting a truck with renting a container (or even a freight container)

They also provide a step-by-step plan to help you through each part of the move, along with some other useful tips. Keep in mind, the tool is definitely aimed at promoting HireAHelper’s service, but that doesn’t mean it’s not helpful. Check it out for yourself at the link below.
