How to save money on your next move. 3 articles

Carlos Medina studied Journalism at Southwestern College in Chula Vista, CA where he spent two years as a staff writer and one as an editor in the Southwestern Sun newspaper. His awards include Journalism Association of Community Colleges, Society of Professional Journalists and San Diego Press Club awards. He is also a former reservation agent for several moving companies. In this set of articles he uses his inside-the-industry knowledge to give the readers helpful information regarding their own moves. These articles gives great advice on how to decide whether to hire a mover or do it yourself, choose the right moving company, and consider the third options, shipping containers.

You got the dream job at that prestigious university. Your excitement and joy is tempered by nerves and the fear of the unknown. You have lived in the same town your entire life and now you find yourself moving halfway across the country. What is the best way to execute your move? Do you do it yourself or hire professionals? The immediate consideration is the budget. According to the American Moving and Storage Association the average cost of an inter-state move is $4,300 while an in-state move averages $2,300. The actual cost can vary greatly based on distance, how large your move is and the specific route involved. People often look to save money on a move by renting a truck and doing the move themselves, but do you really save that way? More importantly, is it worth it? The answers are a little more complicated that one might think. In my years as a reservation specialist for moving companies I found that sometimes a self move came out more expensive than hiring a mover. Often the difference in costs would be minimal and far from worth taking on the extra work and stress. In this article we will look to examine the important considerations in making that decision.
