Dear Diary,

oklahomacity — Tue, 30 Nov 2010 18:57:13 +0000

I realize quite often how useful it is to keep a daily journal. A diary, a log, a notebook… whatever you call it, the advantages are numerous. Keeping a log of your days’ events is a great way to get to know yourself better, and to hold on to little memories that your brain might otherwise discard. In the moving world, keeping a log of each day’s events is very useful.

Reputable Oklahoma City movers definitely keep logs of each move. These notes help to shape effective routines for quicker more efficient future moves. Repeat customers benefit greatly when their mover keeps notes of previous moves on file. This is especially true if the moving company has previously moved their cumbersome belongings, such as a grand piano or a hot tub. Your reputable Oklahoma City movers don’t have an easy job, but logged information definitely helps by standardizing their moving techniques, which simplifies your life any time you are in the market for local moving services in Oklahoma City.

Have a last minute move?

oklahomacity — Mon, 01 Nov 2010 16:13:24 +0000

Well, with all of the revelry surrounding Halloween, some may have had to push their moving in date back. If that’s you and you need to move today, don’t panic. Call a local Oklahoma City mover immediately. During the week moves are often the best time to move anyway. Typically there are fewer moves scheduled during the early part of the week. So really a weekday move between Monday and Wednesday could be better on your pocket. You may have to wait until the first jobs of the day are complete, but you can at least relax knowing that in a couple of hours you will be on your way to your new apartment or house. There is no same day fee for moving, so if you encounter that type of scenario, call another Oklahoma City mover. Let me know how your relocation goes. Good moving to ya!

Move-in Reminders

oklahomacity — Mon, 04 Oct 2010 18:11:10 +0000

Once your Oklahoma City Movers unload your items, there are a number of things to remember as you attempt to settle in your new home. Below are just a few important reminders.

Smoke Alarms

First things first: install new batteries in your smoke alarms and make sure they’re functioning properly. Faulty smoke alarms can be lethal. Don’t be a victim.

Carbon Monoxide Detectors

It’s estimated that more than 200 Americans die every year from carbon monoxide poisoning. Carbon monoxide can be emitted from water heaters and other fuel burning appliances. Be on the safe side and invest in a good quality carbon monoxide detector.

Avoid Burglary

Make sure all your doors have locks. Don’t place valuables in sight of open windows. If you have a sliding glass door, use a broom stick or other device to insure that the door can’t be forced open. If you have the money, you might consider a professionally installed and monitored security system.

These and other actions will help insure your new home is as safe as possible.

Making a move in Oklahoma City this Labor Day?

oklahomacity — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 19:08:12 +0000

Holidays like Labor Day are great when it comes to moving. The additional day off is a definite help when it comes to getting settled in your new home. Are you moving this Labor day? Some Oklahoma City movers are open this Monday. Call and find out. If they aren’t open on Monday, ask if they have any availability on Sunday afternoon. This will still allow you some time on Monday to unpack and get settled before being thrust back into your work-week. Believe it or not some moving companies will be open all weekend. Even if they are booked today, they may call you back if another customer cancels. Call around or visit a couple of websites of Oklahoma City movers for a moving quote.

Long Distance Moving done right!

oklahomacity — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 16:44:20 +0000

In most instances your long distance move should begin with a free in-home estimate from an in-home estimator. The estimator will conduct a survey of your property. His or her goal is to map out a move plan and to provide you with fair and honest pricing.

Once you’ve selected your Oklahoma City mover, you now need to begin to prepare your home for the move. You will receive several tips from the moving company on how to make the move as smooth as possible. I’ve listed a few of my own below:

Plan a garage sale to eliminate items that you don’t need.
Secure change of address information from postal service.
Notify utility companies of cancellation of services.
Assemble important documents (i.e. policies, birth certificates, school records etc.).
Garner packing materials.
Disconnect major appliances

Remember you’re looking for a moving company that is going to be with you throughout the entire process of your move. As time draws close to your family’s big day you should receive a call from your relocation specialist to confirm the arrival time of the crew. He will also be checking to see if there are any last minute details that he and his team may need to address. If you are taking advantage of their packing services the relocation specialist may advise you of a packing day prior to the move. If that’s the case, the team will arrive at your home with ample packing supplies to get your house move ready. Move ready simply means everything packed, disassembled, labeled and facing the door. This move ready process assists your Oklahoma City moving crew in expediting the loading of the carrier. Also, another tidbit to note, some moving companies will throw in something here and there …maybe free wardrobe boxes. It never hurts to ask.

On move day you want to make sure that the foreman goes over the logistics/move plan with you to make certain you are comfortable with the process. Once you guys have met the crew should then begin loading, because time is money. At the end of loading I recommend a final walk-through of the home. Once loading is done, unloading is only hours away!

Are you prepared for your upcoming relocation?

oklahomacity — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 14:24:36 +0000

Adequate preparation is key to ensuring your move in Oklahoma City is successful. I usually recommend developing a plan of action for your move. The task of moving year’s worth of items can be overwhelming. When you employ a structured approach to moving it allows your stress to be minimal, thus providing you with a much smoother transition.

The most obvious thing to do first is to begin to note the items you will not be taking with you. These items can be used for a garage sale or donated to charity. Once you’ve downsized your clothing and furnishings you can then begin to organize a packing system for each room. Purchasing professional packing supplies is paramount to secure the safety of your items from beginning to end of your move. Keep in mind your Oklahoma City Moving company will provide support during this time of preparation as well. The more prepared you are, the easier it will be for your Oklahoma City mover.

Moving in Oklahoma City? Do-it-yourself packing is possible!

oklahomacity — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 17:03:39 +0000

Packing is a crucial step in the moving process. While it’s a necessary component, many hate the thought of it. When you hire a reputable Oklahoma City mover to execute your move, full service packing is available. However if you prefer do-it-yourself packing, just ask your moving company to supply you with their professional packing materials to ensure your items are properly packed and secured for the duration of your journey. Review the comprehensive guide to packing and do-it-yourself packing.

End of the month moving?

oklahomacity — Mon, 29 Mar 2010 16:28:37 +0000

This is one of the busiest seasons for Oklahoma City Movers. Most tenants relocate towards the end of the month. Therefore its usually not the best time to orchestrate a move in Oklahoma City. However, if your time-frame must include the end of the month, I recommend placing your moving request early. Book your move at least a month in advance, if not earlier. When you book your move, attempt to secure the first move of the day. However, if you’re moving tomorrow or Wednesday, contact your Oklahoma City mover anyway. Most times there are cancellations. Seeing as though the end of the month falls on a weekday, you might be in good shape.
