Getting an in-home moving estimate is one of the best things you can do when planning your relocation. Whether you are moving locally or relocating across the country or the world, taking the time to get an in-home estimate for your move will go a long way toward ensuring that you are able to accurately prepare and budget for your relocation. Let’s dive into the many ways that an in-home estimate will benefit you.

Getting to Know Your Moving Company Better

One of the biggest advantages of getting an in-home estimate is that you will be able to meet with a representative from your moving company and gain a better understanding of the type of company you are dealing with. With so many moving companies out there, it can be difficult to choose the right one for you. If a moving company refuses to meet with you to provide you with an in-home estimate, this can be a sign that they might not be the most reliable moving company. Meeting with a moving specialist from your moving company of choice will allow you to assess the professionalism and trustworthiness of your moving team.

Getting Detailed Answers to Your Questions

If you are planning to hire movers to assist with your relocation, you might have a lot of questions about the moving process. While you can certainly get answers to your questions on the phone or by e-mail, you are more likely to get detailed responses when you meet with a moving specialist face-to-face. Some of the things that you might want to inquire about during your in-home estimate include:

  • Services Offered (Including Packing, Crating, Unpacking, Debris Removal, and More)
  • How Cost is Calculated
  • Scheduling
  • Qualifications, Licensing, and Insurance
  • Storage Options

Ensuring the Accuracy of Your Moving Estimate

Another major benefit of getting an in-home estimate is that it is the best way to ensure that your upfront quote is accurate, which will allow you to more easily budget for your move.
