Shamrock Moving and Deliveries has been in the South Florida moving business for over 15 years…. and in that time, we’ve heard from a lot of our customers who’ve had previously taken on the responsibility of moving by themselves.. and here are some of the reasons why they decided to hire a professional mover the next time:
Why you shouldn’t risk a Do-It-Yourself Move
As we all know, moving can be a major hassle. It’s a major time-sink that can wear down an already busy schedule. So you may ask yourself:: “Should I do this move myself? Maybe call in a few friend favors? Or should I hire a moving company?” A DIY approach may seem like an easy option, but there are many factors to consider. A common misconception is that hiring a professional is simply too expensive, but in many cases, the opposite can be true as well.
The Risks of a DIY Move
Before you decide to take on a move on your own, consider the following:
- Breakage – In the rush to pack, load and unload a moving truck, all while juggling other responsibilities, accidents can occur. A professional mover knows exactly how to pack, lift, load and unload items safely and securely.
- Injuries: similar to breakage, a non-professional may end up injuring themselves while trying to get all objects packed and loaded. Our team does all aspects of moving every day, and they have the proper safety equipment, and training to prevent injuries, and prevent you from having to add the extra strain on your already jam-packed schedule.
- Time management – DIY moves can last days, or even weeks. Between finding boxes and moving supplies, assembling boxes, packing itself, locating a moving truck (which can sometimes be rented out from under you at certain DIY moving truck rental companies.. Or the trucks they were expecting may not be brought back yet), and about a dozen other time intensive duties, the process can tend to drag on far longer than expected. With our professional South Florida movers, you’ll have a whole team of experts that can save days or weeks of time and reduce your stress level during an extremely stressful time.
- Stress Management – The entire process of a move can be a whirlwind.. And stress can build up fast when you’re trying to do it all on your own. By leaving some of the hardest work to our professional team of South Florida movers, you’ll be taking a huge weight off your shoulders.. literally.
