Packing & Moving Services
The relocation industry is becoming increasingly competitive and an umbrella of services is offered by them. But there two main types of moving and packing services offered, depending on the level of service availed. They are :
Full-Service Movers and Packers
Full-service movers are the most inclusive relocation option to the client both individual and corporates. These service providers handle every aspect of the move; from consultation, packing, loading and driving to unloading. They are professional and licensed and offer the opportunity to insure the belongings against the unforeseen event of something being damaged in route. It saves the client, a lot of time, effort and stress.
These services are availed mainly when the goods of 5 or more rooms have to be moved or time is a limiting factor. Also, corporate houses prefer it against the second type as it is much more time saving and economical for them.
Self-Service Movers and Packers
Self-service moving is a hybrid relocation option wherein the customers is required to handle the entire packing and loading /unloading while the company hired handles the mode of transportation only . This is the perfect service for small to medium interstate moves. Self-service moving is a convenient and cost-saving alternative to full-service and do-it-yourself movers. It allows greater control over loading and packing of personal belongings while also allowing the client to take advantage of experienced drivers to assist them.
In this kind of moving and packing service, the control lies in the hand of customer and a reasonable amount of money is saved. Apart from the above two, there are two other moving and packing services. Both of them fall under the purview of self service moving and packing.
Auto Transport Service
With the emergence of an advanced relocation sector, the auto transport service is not much in use, though it was popular some time back. In this, the client has to himself do all the packing, loading , unloading, rearranging etc. The role of the service company is there only in driving the customer's vehicle. So, all that is provided is a chauffeur that drives the vehicle with all the goods to be moved.
Moving truck rental
Many companies offer "do it yourself" moving truck rental services. With these companies, one simply rents a truck, loads the material and drives on his own. This type of move requires the largest time and effort on the mover's part. These type of moves can also be the most stressful types of move and are most likely to cause unexpected headaches and costs.
Un-Packing Services
Taking the goods to the destination is only half the job done. After packing and moving them to the final place, unpacking is a crucial aspect and must be done as carefully as the packing job. It needs trained hands to unpack the items, carefully and in a systematic manner.
Unraveling the contents, positioning the furniture, hanging stuff on the walls etc is a time consuming part and needs assistance. Unpackers pick up where the movers stop - they unpack boxes, wash everything, put everything away and arrange them at the proper place. Their services are specially useful when the items are in bulk or there are many fragile items that need special care.
Being professionals in this industry, sometimes the unpackers also give useful tips regarding the setting up of the items. Some relocators have the clause that if the packing is done through them, they should also be hired for unpacking (purely for liability reasons). This must be checked out before signing any contract.
Taking help for unpacking service allows the individual or an entire set up to get back to a normal routine as quickly as possible. Some of the unpacking tasks that are undertaken by the service providers are:
 Unpacking of the boxes.
Placement of fragile items.
Furniture assembly and positioning.
Hanging of shelves and cabinets.
Rubbish disposal.
Unpacking fragile items.
Unpack cartons and place goods into cupboards.
Cupboards, shelves and bench tops are wiped clean.
Place food items into the pantry and refrigerator.
Clothing is unpacked and hung in wardrobes.
Beds are freshly made.
Linen and towels are sorted and color coordinated.
Books are neatly arranged onto bookshelves.
Crystal, silverware and family heirlooms placed into wall units.
Depending on the customers specifications, either all the boxes or just a few of them are unpacked, to suit the needs. This allows them the time to clean and organize before putting them away. Whether the unpacking service availed is full or partial, depends on the needs and budget of the client.
The unpacking service providers also make sure that the goods reach the destination in time. Hence, these are also sometimes referred to as "destination services". At the time of unpacking, all the items that are taken out are also checked before they are finally put at the right place, in order to avoid any misplacement.
Also, the final inventory of all belongings must be compared to the initial inventory to make sure that nothing is missing lost. In case of damaged items, they must be left untouched as a proof for any insurance claims.
