What Packing Services Do I Need?

There’s so much to do when you are moving, so sometimes hiring a professional Atlanta packing company is the way to go. There are a variety of options available, from packing your entire house to only packing selected things. If you aren’t worried about the cost, you should consider hiring an Atlanta packing company for both the packing and unpacking. Before you decide to hire or actually hire professionals, you should compare your time and energy with the cost involved in hiring professionals to pack and unpack your belongings.

After researching many companies, you should narrow your list down to a few companies. Then, you should have a surveyor from each company come perform a home assessment. During this home assessment, the surveyor will make a list of each item that needs to be packed. This tells you how much your move will cost, and helps the professional packers determine what’s of value and may need extra care. During the home assessment, the valuables will be discussed and the packers will determine how these items should be handled. More likely than not, an Atlanta packing company will pack these valuable items and set them aside for you to take with you on moving day.

If you are looking to save money on your move, our Atlanta packing company offers partial packing, which is ideal for the packing of specialty items, particularly fragile things, artwork, mirrors and other breakables. It’s usually worth paying an extra charge to ensure the safe arrival of your most valuable items.

If you’re interested in full packing services, an Atlanta packing company will provide you with an estimate on how long it’ll take them and how much it will cost. Usually, it can be done in one day. The timeframe you’re looking at and how much stuff you have is what will determine the price. If you’re in a rush to move, more staff will need to be hired to get your home packed. Full packing services will make sure that all your furniture is correctly disassembled, properly wrapped and secured with protective padding. All your pictures and frames will be removed from walls, and carpets will be rolled and ready to be loaded onto the truck. Everything in your home will be packed in boxes that are labeled and sorted according to room.

You might still be wondering which packing service are right for you. As we mentioned earlier, the decision should be based on time versus cost. Hiring packing services will definitely add to your budget, but if you must take off two weeks of work in order to get your home packed, it might be worth the price. Packing will take a lot of time, and you should think about the preparation that comes with packing, too.
