| One mover, two movers, three movers...four? |
With most reputable moving companies it depends entirely on the size of
your move. A smaller move tends to warrant two movers, a medium size
move at least three movers with the largest move being at least four
movers.
When you call in to schedule an appointment for a moving estimate or
obtain a moving quote, your agent will begin by gathering information
about your move. A list of things they will ask is indicated below:
- How many bedrooms?
- What's the square-footage of your home?
- Do you have any large or fragile items?
- Is your home one story, two or more?
- Will you need packing done?
The answers to these questions will help the mover gauge your move size
and then devise a move plan that addresses your moving need. The least
amount of movers sent will be two. Two movers generally handle one and
two bedroom apartments. For larger two bedroom apartments, condos and
three bedroom homes, three movers are generally assigned. And lastly
for larger three bedroom homes and more you should receive at least
four movers and possibly five depending on home size.
I've heard all sorts of horror stories about the amount of movers
received for a given move. When you are discussing your move with the
agent make sure you find out the number of men and their hourly moving rate. The amount of movers affect the pace of the move. If the moving
crew
is hindered because a lack of support it will cost you in the end. Also
ask if there are any minimums associated with your move. These
questions shed light on your anticipated costs.
The size of your moving crew is not picked out of a lottery, but your
experienced mover will package the right amount of movers and tools to
deliver a move for you that is second to no other moving company.
