packers
and movers pune Money really makes the
world go round and moving and changing homes is expensive business. Even if you
are moving on transfer, often the company transfer reimbursement may not cover
all the expenses. Moving mean expenses both known as well as unknown.
To stay out of the
"red" it is important to budget your moving costs. Costs will vary
depending on the distance you are moving and what you want moved. And believe
it or not you can save if you decide to move mid-week instead of the week end
and expenses between October and April are much lower than in peak moving
season.
So if you want to
accomplish a move without hurting your pocket you must:
1. De clutter and get
rid of everything other than the bare necessities.
2. Do the packing as
well as loading onto the truck yourself. Movers charge less when you handle
some of the work.
3. Shop around for
competitive insurance. Approach the same company that handles all your other
insurance needs and get the advisor to check whether your home insurance will
cover transit. Learn how to cut costs.
4. Find out if your new
home has a few inbuilt appliances. And measure each room and space in your new
home so that you save on transporting things that will not fit or are already
installed.
5. Ask the mover
whether he can offer storage in transit for free or a small cost.
6. Give away plants,
canned foods, fertilizers, paints, thinners, pesticides, and such. Never
transport inflammables and things that can be replaced at a lower cost than the
cost of moving.
7. If you are moving to
a warmer place then put winter things into storage instead of paying to take
them along.
8. Buy moving supplies
at affordable rates. Ask your local grocer to give you empty cartons. Buy tape
and sealing things at wholesale rates. Look around for people who have just
moved, many sell the boxes for a flat rate.
9. Instead of bubble
wrap use sheets, towels, t-shirts and newspapers as packing material.
