Finding an affordable mover in Baltimore isn’t too tricky if you have a solid game plan. Just like any big life decision, moving takes some planning and research. Now that you have determined your destination, getting there should be easy.

How Do I Find Relocators?

If you want to save money on your move, consider doing some work yourself. Not the heavy lifting—leave the physical labor to the affordable hauling professionals. But there are some things you can do before the move to save money and make the packing and settling easier. Let's face it; most don't like throwing things away. Half of Americans admit they have a little bit of a problem with clutter, and forty percent confess to quite a bit. We might not take this to the extreme of those "hoarder" television shows, but we hold on to things that should be thrown out or donated to charity. Often, we keep things with the idea that we might need them in the future or just for sentimental reasons. We store them in our bedroom closets or the garage.

The best way to prepare for a less expensive move is to reduce the amount of unnecessary stuff that gets moved. The cost of any move depends on how much you are relocating and how far you are moving. If you reduce the amount, the job will cost less. Plus, you get to enjoy the opportunity to start fresh in your new home with a simple, uncluttered look that is much easier to keep tidy. Start by sorting through the stored items in the garage or closets. Be firm with yourself—if you haven't worn it in a few months, donate it to a charity (get a receipt, you might be entitled to a tax deduction). Or have a virtual garage sale and see if other people want to buy the things you no longer use. Various online sales apps facilitate your ability to reduce your storage while increasing someone else's.

Here are the top ten items that Americans like to save that you should get rid of before you pack for a move:

• Old clothing
• Old shoes and boots
• Seasonal décor
• Books
• Boxes (you will need these)
• New clothing never worn
• Used chargers and cables
• Old magazines and newspapers (use the newspapers for packing)
• Old movies
• Obsolete electronics

If you live in an area with good community recycling, look for an e-waste event to dispose of the old electronic components rather than sending them to a landfill. The same goes for the used chargers and cords. You can donate Anything you can't sell to your choice of philanthropic organization. Some will pick up your items at home, but others may ask you to drop them off.

Next, you can do most of the packing yourself. Removalists will provide you with a bid for filling everything if you ask, but this is work you can do on your own, and take your time as you prepare for the move. Use common sense—don’t start with the things you will need to use frequently; start with the stuff you can do without for a couple of weeks. If you are moving in winter, pack the summer clothes, toys, and garage items first. One thing to remember about packing is that the boxes should be full but not too heavy. Also, when you discuss insurance (valuation) with your mover, they will remind you that how you pack the contents matters. Items you pack are not protected by insurance if they drop the box, but the box isn't damaged. So, put some material and a few heavier items on the bottom. Next, put some lighter things, then more material. You don't want empty spaces because that allows too much motion. Pro tip: Don't get too many extra-large boxes because they will be heavy. Books should go in smaller packages. Dishes should go in smaller containers, and you need to wrap them carefully. You can use linens and clothing instead of paper for dishes.

How Do I Compare The Movers’ Estimates For The Best Deal?

Ask three moving companies to come to your home and estimate the job. They will walk through the residence with you and look at everything you need to move. You can point out things that you plan to give away or sell so that they can exclude those items from the inventory. Let them know if you have a storage unit with additional items to pick up or anything else that will increase or decrease the job's size. Ask them to submit a written calculation of the cost to you. If this is a local move (less than 100 miles), the mover will price you based on how much time they need to do the work. If you are carrying long-distance, the assessment will depend on how much your goods weigh and how far you move.

Estimates can be binding or nonbinding. A binding calculation is a guaranteed price, and customers often prefer this approach since you don't have to worry about paying more when they finish the work. Double-check to be sure that you are not comparing binding to nonbinding when you compare charges—the vendor offering binding charges might add a little wiggle room. In contrast, the nonbinding estimate might look lower at the start but higher. Don't hesitate to ask why one is different, especially if the weight assessment is sharply higher or lower.

If it seems "too good to be true," it might be a scam. Some shady operators will take advantage of your interest in saving money and offer you a cut-rate price. They might tell you they have an opening on the day you need to move; it's unique in your neighborhood or for some other reason. Unfortunately, they might be planning to defraud you. If the mover asks for a substantial deposit before the move, be suspicious. Most moving services are paid for when the delivery is made. They may take your good-faith deposit and disappear. Or the company may send a crew that starts loading your goods, tells you that the estimate was wrong, and insists that you agree to a new, much higher price to continue.

One way to reduce the chance of being a victim of this type of scam is to check out the company’s reputation and references before you hire them. The Better Business Bureau collects positive and negative reviews about shifting on its website. If the mover conducts interstate work, you can check it on FMCSA, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. Ask your top choice for some recent customers and call to talk to them about their experience with the mover. You should be able to reach some recent clients and get an honest appraisal of their performance.
