Go through your home and make a checklist of the furniture and larger items needed to be moved by the moving company. These items include: Sofas, dressers, entertainment centers, beds, desks, refrigerator, washer and dryer etc.
Create a moving file. Keep track of moving quotes from companies and other important moving related documents.
Be sure to scope out access points for your move. Ask your movers what size trucks will be used. It would be very frustrating if your movers show up and they have to carry furniture a long way.
When looking for services on the internet, you will most likely come upon websites of actual moving companies or websites that offer free moving quotes in your area. The best choice would be to first get the free quotes from a quote provider. Then after receiving calls from the moving companies, continue to search for their website online and in the Better Business Bureau.
