Self-Service Moving vs Full Service Truck Rental Movers
America's popular "move when you like (or need)" culture has resulted in the proliferation of an entire industry catering to the moving needs of millions of customers. Fortunately, with the increase in competition, a number of options are now available for those on the move. |
| Full service movers |
| As the name suggests, companies offering the full service option orchestrate the entire moving process, from packing and loading boxes to driving and unloading. While plans (and prices) vary, these companies cater to the needs of busy executives or those individuals whose relocation costs are borne by employers. |
| Advantages |
- Convenience of having professionals execute the entire moving process.
- The full service option saves a lot of time and allows busy executives to focus on their core business.
- Allowing the experts to handle the move would virtually eliminate all hassles and surprises and result in a faster, efficient relocation (not always, though).
|
| Disadvantages |
- Costs could be significantly higher than other options.
- If you are working with a larger company you may have to work around their schedule and policies.
|
| Self service (do-it-yourself) movers |
| For those of us who belong to the “do-it-yourself generation”, there’s good news. From a blend of “you pack and unpack, we drive” movers to “you pack and unpack, you drive” movers, the options are many.
Typically, the self-service option allows more control in the way you want to coordinate the move. The moving company would deliver empty trailer(s) or crate(s) to your home and give you a few days to pack and load. Professional drivers would then drive the
moving truck to the destination location where you would be responsible for the unpacking. |
| Advantage |
- By choosing to orchestrate the move yourself, you can save hundreds of dollars.
- There is more time to pack.
- You still retain the advantage of having a professional driver take care of the transportation.
|
| Disadvantages |
- The most significant disadvantage is the amount of time and labor that would be spent in planning, coordinating, and executing the entire process.
- You may be missing out on the expertise of professional movers.
|
|
| Irrespective of which option you choose, knowing some of the advantages and disadvantages of both options will help you make an informed decision. |
