Many people think hiring movers costs much more than moving on your own. But before you rent a truck, pay for fuel, spend an entire day driving back and forth, and risk breaking fragile items because of inexperience, think about all the benefits that come with using a moving company.

Professional movers do much more than just lift boxes and take you from one place to another. STI Moving & Storage offers several helpful services you might not have known about.

More Services

There are certain services that professional movers usually include in their standard hourly rate.

Disassembling Furniture

If you own a bed frame, desk, entertainment center, or any big furniture that needs to be taken apart, you can ask the movers to do it. They usually have the right tools to disassemble large items and can also put them back together when you arrive at your new home.

Protecting Fragile Items

There’s only so much you can do with towels and blankets when packing breakable things. Professional movers can help by wrapping your furniture, artwork and TVs with protective materials. They also use coverings to keep your floors and walls safe from scratches and scuff marks.

Covering Damages

If a mover accidentally damages something, the moving company’s insurance will pay to repair or replace it. A reliable moving company won’t charge extra for this coverage—it’s already included in every move.

Above and Beyond Services

If you want a totally hands-free move and are okay with paying a bit more, STI offers a full service move. Along with the services mentioned above, a full service move also includes:

  • All the packing supplies. From boxes and tape to bubble wrap and paper for wrapping delicate items—your movers will provide everything. You won’t need to hunt for boxes at stores or make extra trips just to buy more tape.
  • Packing all of your belongings. Professional packers know how to finish the job fast while keeping things organized and making sure your fragile items stay safe.
  • Unpacking items at the new home with your direction. Once you tell the movers where to place your dishes and how to hang your clothes, they’ll take care of everything else.
  • Disposing of packing materials. After unpacking your belongings, the movers will remove all the boxes, bubble wrap and packing peanuts, making sure they are recycled or thrown away properly so you can enjoy a neat, organized new home.
