The size of your home
How big your home is, directly affects how many items you own. A studio apartment holds less items than a 2-bedroom apartment does. It gets deeper than that. The size of the rooms inside your house as well as the number of flights of stairs the movers will have climb when moving heavy boxes, determine how much more you’ll be charged, says The Simple Dollar.
Are you paying for storage?
In some instances, you may have to move out of your old home even before your new house is ready for occupancy. Such a scenario will require you to pay for storage until you can move your belongings to the new home, which is an added expense on your part. If you find yourself in such a situation, research on affordable storage units close to your new home and inform your long-distance movers in Chula Vista CA of the change in plans.
Is it a local move or a long distance one?
It goes without saying, an interstate move will cost more than a local move would. Try and map out a route from your old home to your new one and calculate the distance. You can then confirm your findings with the calculations provided by your mover.
Who is packing?
Hiring movers to shift your belongings is a straight forward expense. However, hiring them to help with the packing too, will add to the final cost of moving. Movers will charge extra for the packing supplies they bring with them as well as the time taken to pack your belongings. You can minimize this expense by asking friends and family to help with the packing.
