Anyone who has to face moving faces concerns and worries about hiring the right company. Whether you’re moving a home, apartment or office, only qualified specialists can organize the move and ensure the safety of the client’s property.
It is important to distinguish professional movers from the usual loaders. This is due to the fact that almost every car driver today boldly calls himself a mover, although he does not have the necessary knowledge, skills and tools.
Experts identify a number of key features that a professional mover has. First of all, it is the presence of a page in the popular social networks. Most of the amateur teams do not bother creating accounts on Facebook and Google+. If you find the moving company’s page in at least one of the social networks, be sure to visit it.
When first viewing the account, you can easily figure out how often the creator visits it. It bodes well for a company when you can easily find customers’ reviews, answers to frequently asked questions and all sorts of useful customer information. For example, take a look at this Facebook page and this Google+ account.
A trustworthy professional mover will post photos and videos of their work and customer feedback As a rule, professional movers spread on their pages photos and video of the work performed or the feedback of the customers, so potential customers can estimate the quality of services and the professionalism of workers.
Pay attention to customer reviews. Visit the testimonials sections of websites, social media and Yelp, and read what clients have to say. On some sites, you can even call the phone number of the reviewer or message him or her directly. Satisfied customers will be happy to tell you about their experiences.
Another important point is the cost of the services offered. Professional movers appreciate their time and energy. Prices that seem too low can be a red flag for shoddy services. You want to be sure to hire a company that takes pride in their work, is responsible and has proper work permits, if applicable.
There should be a broad range of staff responsibilities at a reputable company. You should be expect them to offer you a number of employees, packaging materials and a selection of different vehicles at your request. Each team should have an appraiser, a logistician, a team of loaders. Large professional movers have at least eight managers and several teams of specialists. Only in this case the company can stay in touch and respond to orders.
The company VA Movers is a good example of professional movers who know their duties very well. They have their own packaging materials and vehicle array, which can guarantee a high quality of services and strict adherence to contract terms. Companies that do not use the services of intermediaries are confident in their abilities.
Have a good move!
