Do-it-yourself move to save money amid tight budget

Professional Packers and Movers Hyderabad or for that matter any other city in India is a modern business vertical and cannot be related to our life and times before the early 1980s. Prior to which there was a time when moving meant looking for a truck owner in the vicinity to hire their truck and calling up friends and relatives to help out with the packing and loading the stuff. Times have certainly changed and have thrown up different ideas even for a do-it-yourself move.

While do-it-yourself may stand out to be a viable option for a full truckload move, it is the part-load consignment that may not be possible. Trucks on rent and moving cubes are viable options for self-moving to save money if you are running on a tight budget. However much you try to reduce stress over saving cash, it is the task of packing that is going to give you anxious moments since you will not be able to do it all right due to your lack of practical knowledge. While one option would be to hire professional Packers and Movers Pune for the move, may not be feasible due to higher costs associated with hiring them.

Therefore, Do-it-Yourself or self-moving might be the best option for you since it gives you complete control of the process apart from saving big money. So once you have decided on the self-moving process, the following are the main aspects to successfully complete the process:

1.       Truck rental: Hire a truck from the truck stand or from the wide choices of truck rental mobile applications. You can either hire untrained labor for packing, loading, unloading, and rearranging or you do everything yourself with the help of family and friends. The downside is you can only hire a full truck irrespective of loading it fully.

2.       Moving cube: A few reputed moving companies in India like Agarwal Packers and Movers have come up with a unique concept of moving cubes that are dedicated to your belongings. They come in various sizes from 300 cubic feet to 800 cubic feet giving you a wide range to fill up your 1 BHK or 2 BHK or a 3 BHK. The only disadvantage is that they are not operational country-wide and are available only for specific sectors in India.

3.       Hiring Transport Company: This might turn out to be a very good option for you as they would also pick up your smaller volumes and treat them as a part-load consignment. While you pack your own stuff, they come and load it and give you door-to-door service they may or may not include unloading and rearranging.

We are presenting you with a few practical tips for a do-it-yourself move:

·         While you can do the packing yourself, take services from experts for dismantling and rearranging your heavy furniture.

·         Make use of sufficient bubble wraps and foam padding to pack your fragile and valuable items like bone china ware and antiques

·         Prepare a checklist and start packing your stuff at least 8 weeks prior to the actual moving date
