If it’s your first time moving with a company in Victoria and you don’t know where to start, here are some tips for finding the right moving company in Victoria for you. We’ll break down everything from price, ratings, and licensing and insurance, as well as why you should choose Y’all Call I Haul for your moving needs.
Define Your Moving Needs
The first step to finding the best movers for you is to know what you need done so you can relay that to the moving company. This allows for the moving coordinator to determine how many movers will need to be sent out, if you’ll need packing services, what tools and equipment will need to be brought, as well as the cost/rate for the job. Here are some of the details we collect when setting up a move:
- What size home/apartment are you moving from?
- One story or two story?
- Are you on the first, second or third floor?
- Do you only want your large furniture moved?
- Do you need your items packed as well?
- Do you have any large/specialty items (gun safe, piano, etc.)?
- Is there easy access to your home (driveway, gravel road, etc.)?
These are the most common questions that are asked by Y’all Call I Haul’s moving coordinator on the phone. This allows us to be prepared ahead of time and properly book your move. These factors also determine the price of your move, which is based on an hourly rate, which is the most common pricing structure in Victoria.
How to Find the Best Company
Finding companies for moving can be relatively easy with the internet. A simple Google search will bring a list of companies in Victoria to choose from. We recommend doing your due diligence to find the best one among the list. Here’s how our customers do it.
Use Google to Find the Best Reviews
Google will show you a list of 3 top companies in your area when you search for “movers in Victoria”. By clicking on a specific company you will be able to sift through their reviews and see their rating. Y’all Call I Haul has 5 Stars on Google as well as Facebook!
Check through multiple companies online and read the reviews from previous customers. This will allow you to get a feel for a company before doing business with them and see any red flags as well. Reviews aren’t the only factor to determine if a company is a good fit, sometimes bad reviews come from a customer that would never be satisfied, so keep that in mind while researching.
Check for Proper Licensing and Insurance
The next step to finding the best company is to verify they are licensed and insured. The main benefit for this is that you know a company is a legitimate business and not a couple guys and a truck that will take your money and damage your belongings. All legitimate companies will have the proper licensing (registered business) as well as insurance. Damage to property is a rare occurrence, but you’ll want to know if it does happen that the company will be able to take care of it for you. You will be able to find this information on the company’s website or ask for it over the phone.
Ask For Referrals
Another great way to find a quality moving service is to ask around for referrals. Family members, co-workers, and realtors are great people to ask. If someone has moved recently and used a company ask them who they used, how their experience was, and what they liked or disliked about the service. Use Google or Facebook as an extra source to verify their reputation as well.
The Price is Right
The next factor for moving is pricing. Most companies in Victoria charge by the hour, so the pricing is usually similar between all of the companies, which is why it is last on our list. The cost of moving in Victoria is relatively the same no matter which company you choose, but you can save by going with a company that has a fast team.
