Do It Yourself Moving vs. Professional Movers

E.E. Ward Moving & Storage


A common question we receive is "Which is better for me? Moving by myself or hiring professional movers?" This article will aid you in deciding that.

Consider the costs of doing it yourself:

-The (possible) costs of food and drinks for you and your moving friends

-The cost of fuel and rent for a truck

-The cost of moving supplies (Tape, Boxes, Etc.,)

-If it's a long distance move, add the costs lodging and food

Some more things to consider about a Do-It-Yourself type move is that things can get damaged in the hands of inexperienced movers . Moreover, you need to make sure your help is reliable and capable of moving heavy objects. In the long run, if you have the time and energy to manage the move from start to finish you can save money.
