What to Expect during a Long Distance Move
It is generally best to start planning a long distance move at least several months in advance. This will give you time to sort through your belongings, properly pack, and make all necessary arrangements. From the moment you choose Orange County Moving Stars as your long distance mover, we strive to make the process as easy as possible for you.
We provide free estimates for our moving services so you can budget for your move. We understand that everyone’s moving needs are unique, and do our best to be flexible. Our moving coordinator will come up with a moving plan which suits your needs, such as making a schedule, delivering moving boxes to you, or helping with full or partial packing services.
Unlike some other long distance moving companies which put your belongings on trucks with other people’s belongings, we offer dedicated services. Only your belongings will be packed in the truck and will be transported directly to the destination by our professionals. Depending on the distance which needs to be moved, long distance moving usually takes 2 to 7 days to complete, including loading and unloading times.
Tips for Long Distance Moves
If you are moving long distances, you are probably leaving behind a city you love and your friends, changing jobs and, if you have kids, they are changing schools. This can all be very emotional. To help you deal with the emotional stress, you should start the moving process as early as possible.
Begin by thoughtfully getting rid of unwanted items. Don’t try to purge your belongings all in one day as it can be too emotional. Pay careful attention to any items which will require special packing, such as large framed items or lamps.
Be sure to look at the moving checklist on our website. This checklist includes tasks like getting utilities turned on and having medical records and school transcripts forwarded. By following the checklist, you can remove some of the stress associated with the logistics of moving and instead focus on the emotional aspects of saying goodbye to your home.
