Stress-Free, Professional Moving Services

It’s okay, you can say it: Moving can be a nightmare.Somehow, relocating from A to B manages to combine late nights packing and unpacking, heavy lifting, kid upheaval, unfamiliar locations, work stress and logistical headaches into one big, ugly ball of stress – then smacks it down into the middle of the work year. Yay!

The fact that moving is so rough leads many people to shrug and assume there’s nothing to be done. Moving will suck the last drop of your soul no matter what you do, right?

Local moves are considered moves that are a short distance within the same state. The mileage, size or scale of the move is not a factor in determining if a move is local or not; whether your shipment crosses a state line is what will differentiate a local or intrastate move from a long distance move.

Long distance moves are different than local moves (moving a short distance within a metro area within the same state) and intrastate moves (longer distance moves that occur within the same state) because they involve moving goods across state lines. Additionally, a cross country move can also be referred to as a long distance move, an interstate move or a state-to-state move.

It is important that you are able to distinguish reputable long distance moving companies from fraudulent or so-called “rogue” movers, who are often not really movers and have been known for holding personal property hostage for additional fees and other scams.

Moving and packing valuables is indeed a bit different from moving and packing ordinary household goods: that is why it is best left to the professionals. Expensive paintings, art, statues etc. are best transported in a custom-made wooden crate, in order to ensure continuity in temperature, humidity, and to offer added protection during transportation. At Paul Cargill Removal Services, all valuable cargo shall be transported in unmarked white vans for added security, and peace of mind.
