There are many decisions to make when you plan to move a household. One of them is deciding whether to do it yourself or hire a professional moving company. Hiring residential movers and helpers has benefits, as does doing it yourself.
How to Plan a Do It Yourself Move
When planning a move, people often overlook insurance coverage until something breaks. Damage during a move can involve several parties, including your insurer and the moving company. Coverage depends on how, where, and when the damage occurs. Renters' and homeowners' insurance policies usually protect personal belongings.
They do not automatically cover repairs or replacement for items damaged by professional movers. Understanding where your policy’s responsibility ends and where a mover’s liability begins helps you avoid costly gaps in coverage during a move.

It is a bit more complicated, as it involves hiring movers or a couple of strong individuals to load and unload your belongings. Still, it is often less expensive than hiring a full-service moving company.

If you’ve hired a local moving company that charges by the hour, the best way to control costs is to minimize idle time. Most local movers base their hourly rate on crew size, travel time, and total labor hours, including packing and loading. Have boxes sealed, furniture disassembled, and access paths clear before the crew arrives. Being fully prepared allows movers to start working immediately. This reduces billable time and keeps your final invoice predictable.
